About 3 1/2 years ago I was in a tough position. I was getting married in 6 months and looking for our first house with my then future (now current) wife. So it was time to sell the Z. The 2 1/2 year build-up that I had performed on the engine had maxed out the credit cards and I could no longer afford to keep the Z. I sold it to a guy in Louisiana who was coming back from a tour in Afghanistan.
Well, after bitchin' about having to sell my car for all these years, the wife hacked my email account and contacted the guy I sold the car to, and to her surprise he was thinking of selling the Z. Long story short, he was transferred to Tennessee and I drove down there this past weekend and trailered the Z back to PA.
While it was gone he performed the following upgrades: HKS SSQ blow-off valves, swapped the JWT Twin Pop for AshSpec Dualz, GReddy SP cat-back, Z1 Side Mount IC's, Z1 short shift kit, J-spec Tails and he through in a Escort Racing front bumper cover. All of my mods during the build-up are in my profile. Now to the issues. It's running very rich, so much so the mufflers on the exhaust are very black, idling very ruff, it doesn't want to find a spot at idle, it just bounces around, Right Front caliper is hanging up and causing a hideous grind when coming to a stop, and an issue with the electric/lights. The light on the dash comes on whenever I step on the brakes or turn the driving lights on. Plus a few other odds and ends, but nothing as big as the issues listed. Haven't really had a chance to thoroughly check into everything with work and Father's Day this past weekend, but any ideas would be greatly appreciated. Now to the pics.P.S. It's great to be back!!!
