"drive the hell out of it"
It sounds like everyone in the club "drives the hell out of their z". How many of you are like me and love driving the z carefully, only occasionally exercising the secondaries to keep the cobwebs out, usually in 3rd or 4th gear?
A second question is are there any members with totally stock cars with no intention of modifying it, other than maybe one of Marc's chip to make the car run better. If I were computer smarter I would turn this into a survey...... ,maybe one of you can do this?

Re: "drive the hell out of it"
It's my understanding if you crank it up and don't exercise the secondary's it will turn into a lemon....

Re: "drive the hell out of it"
Anybody on here that personally knows me knows that I've pushed mine to the absolute limit to where it had no more to give many times and didn't wreck it, Loose control of it or have a tire blow out at the speeds I've had mine up to in the past. I got all of that out of my system years ago and just cruise in it once in a while and admire looking at it in my garage nowadays.
Kevin just do your own top end porting. All it will cost you is your time. A few carbide die grinder bits and some sand paper. No divorce needed. And it will be much more exciting to drive than a stock ZR-1. |
