 Time has come to sell my 98 Z28 Camaro, I've had the car over 10 years now. Purchased out of Florida from an older gentlemen with 99k miles. So you can see the car has averaged 2400 miles a year.Although i doubt i've put 5k miles on in the last 5 years. Would love to keep but a new addition to the family comes the need for more space.


H/C/I car with a truck manifold front mount turbo. Have about 800 miles on turbo build just making sure any bugs were worked out before final tune. Car has a decent base street tune with HP tuners (2 bar SD), conservitive 4lbs at 13 degrees timing. Never made it to a dyno (not alot of tuners to choose from here in Utah)
Car made 400+ All motor so it should be fairly stout with boost. 

Motor is a stock internal LS1 with ARP rod bolts, 123000 miles. Checked compression when i started the turbo build last winter and 6 were 180+ and the other 2 were 177 and 176.

76mm ON3 turbo w/96 AR with lava blanket

VFN 3" SS hood
Sitting on custom cut 17" Centerline wheels with Toyo Proxes tires
275 rear and 245 front.

 
New interior right before turbo build, was originally a tan leather car now its ebony, no rips or tears. Dash was nice until i got it back from the interior shop that did the headliner, now its cracked.
Exterior is in really good condition, (i think for the year) always garage kept, typical chips and whatnot from driving, no dents or big dings. Has a couple spots where the last owner tried touching up some chips that don't match .

Now time for what needs done,
Obviously a final tune- I have HP Tuners Pro w/4 credits i'll include for the right price. Used the other 4 on this car
Pinion angle needs adjusting, has a slight vibration at freeway after the i installed the lowering springs.
Pinion seal and output shaft seal leak after driving awhile i'd assume from the vibration wobbling the seals
Car has no power steering currently,I have all the parts just removed it. It need new lines, i was going to do this but the rack had a leak and torn boot so i didn't want power steering fluid spewing all over the hotside.

I would clean up the engine bay a little, clean up and loom the power wires, fab a battery hold down, etc.

UPDATE 9-19. Forgot to mention the rear end may need a new clutch disk pack, doesn't spin both tires all the time. also i just pulled plugs to check them over and two of the drivers plugs were a little wet so i think the valve guide seals are wearing, car has NO smoke on start up or under acceleration.

And here is a short idle vid.

Which automaker's 84-year-old CEO is making investors nervous?

Sun, 06 Jul 2014

We haven't heard much about Suzuki since it decided to leave the US market in 2012, but things are going well for the little automaker these days with the recent announcement of record annual profits. It would seem that investors should be ecstatic, but they are starting to question the man at the helm. Company president and chairman Osamu Suzuki is now 84 years old and is guaranteed at least one more year as the leader, but shareholders want to know who is taking his place when the inevitable happens.
We're not being ageist, here. As long as the Suzuki can run the company to the satisfaction of investors, he absolutely deserves the top spot. According to Bloomberg, the issue making shareholders so edgy is that the business doesn't have a transition plan in place. The president obviously isn't a young man, and folks are worried that if something happens suddenly, there could be chaos deciding a successor and a free-falling stock price.
Suzuki's tenure at the company is somewhat astounding. He married the granddaughter of the founder and took her name because the family had no male heirs. In world where many people hope to retire as soon as possible, he's worked for the same automaker for the last 50 years, including stints as company president from 1978 to 2000 and 2008 to the present. Investors aren't questioning the president's ability as a business leader; they just want a clearer understanding of the automaker's future direction.

It's a hard knock life for a N"urburgring rental car

Wed, 12 Dec 2012

Rental cars get no respect. They're abused, misused and flogged mercilessly as athletes in Rental Car Olympics. And that's just at your everyday airport rental counter. The torture gets extreme for rental cars thrashed around Germany's infamous Nürburgring.
Rent4Ring expects its customers to drive its cars around the 'Ring with enthusiasm and, in some cases, less skill than the pros. Rent4Ring just recently retired its Suzuki Swift Sport from its fleet and shared the car's two-year-plus lifetime highlights.
The little hatchback made more than 2,800 laps of the 'Ring over three seasons amounting to more than 310,000 miles driven by 457 different drivers. "Some were fast, some were slow. Some were nice to the car, a few were frankly awful," says a Rent4Ring rep.

Suzuki recalling 2,800 XL7 models over faulty fuel pump

Sat, 29 Dec 2012

A recall has been issued for the 2007 Suzuki XL7, but only those vehicles either bought or registered in four states: Texas, Arizona, California and Nevada. Potentially 2,380 of the SUVs manufactured from June 13, 2006 to December 22, 2006 could have an issue with their fuel pump modules: The plastic supply or return port could crack. If that happens, it could lead to a fuel leak and then to a fire.
Suzuki hasn't said when the recall will begin. Once it does, owners will be notified and can have their dealers make the necessary repairs free of charge. There's a bulletin from the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration below with more information.
