| My Z has around 110,000 miles on it, all stock and as you can imagine the engine bay is starting to show it's age. Runs great, but there are a number of things I know if not taken care of this winter will give me a lot of problems down the road. So here is this list I came up with so far that need replaced: Engine:
120K Timing Belt Kit
Ramey Z Studs
Accessory Belts
Clean lifters, replace as needed.
Wiring Specialties EFI Harness
Various Gaskets
Knock Sensor Harness
PCV Valves
AAC Valve & Regulator Hose Kit
Fuel Filter
JWT Pop Kit
Boost Hoses
300 Degree VG30 EGR Bypass Kit
BDE Aluminum Half Moon Exhaust Head Plugs
JWT Heavy Duty VTC Springs
Fuel Lines
Cosmetic Bottom End Gasket Kit
Check CAS alignment & pin.
Transmission:
Heavy Duty Clutch Fork Upgrade Kit
SS Clutch lines
Transmission Mount
OE Shifter Bushings
Solid Shifter Mount Goal is to just keep the car running well and reliably for now, maybe next year I can add some go fast goodies. Injectors were replaced with the old style about 2 years ago, hopefully they hold out for another year or so until I can replace them. Turbos spool well, no smoke. I will check shaft play when the engine comes out. Clutch seems good. I'm sure I'll find more that will need replacing once the engine is out. Just wanted to post this and get some suggestions and feedback from the community, please feel free to add or suggest anything you would replace on your Z if it was rounding 110,000. -Tanley
