What have you done to your zed today? Part 2............

Picked up the painted parts ready for the next stage of engine bling.

 

I tried to mount my radiator sized transmission cooler but failed miserably. Then had a light bulp moment and will mount it of the REO bar as im going back to stock. nice thick piece of ally and now will have a front mount oil cooler haha. need to order more AN fittings from summit (shits expensive) but hopefully it will make installation and removal easier.

I also got a little mechanical pick and sat there with my air compressor cleanining out the fins of the heat exhanger for the air con......ended up with a filthy car and was suprised i had no overheating issues it was so blocked up.

here is a pick for size comparison

 

Dayam that's huge! What's the go with the hose splitting off for the BOV's? Running aftermarket intake piping?

 

nah stock intake at the moment but do have a z1 doolz intake to install just havent got around to it.

yeah the cooler is massive but hopefully I wont have to stress about burouts and heat soak at the strip. Also good insurance when I want to daily drive it.

 

Howcome you're not using the factory BOV hardlines?

 

hectic weight reduction? no idea. can take more pics if you like.

 

Whats the plan now mike??????

 

Nice.

Do it.

And not so many 'Defect Me' mods this time!!

 

Go the slicktop if you want to do some track days, Mike. Lot more rigid than the T-tops. Get Ztoy to help get those Works wheels on, you've had them too long to still be sitting in boxes!

 

wonders what i can steal oops ahh i meant borrow off Mikes now de-registered over modded cop attractor :rofl:

 

Got my defective bonnet replaced this morning $250 for a 2nd handy, and took the old girl up too the auto eleccy to get some bits and pieces done.

 

Hmm, let me see, deregistered her, washed her, cleaned her out, replaced with a brand new battery, starts first go.... shead a tear cos she will be missed, had a visit from a neighbour saying theyre interested in her and could we wait a month or two for his pay etc, told him well she hasnt gone anywhere in 3 years... whats 2 months... sure, so this buys me time to make sure shes spotless on the inside and vroom vroom off she goes to her new home..... finally....

 

What sort of bits and pieces? Just curious.

 

Now that my carpet is out, re ran my sound system harness and treated various surface rust spots throughout the interior.

 

Ahhh just crappy little things like the ciggy lighter working so i can plug in my gps or lappy. Getting a working clock hooked back up, the greddy profec wired up, and since beasty has no 3rd brake light getting one installed up high in the rear windscreen, changing over the ferrari tailies for knock off 2k lights. And in a few weeks changing over the dash cluster for a proper working one and also removed the rear bumper reflectors and put clears in , but looking at rules as too see if we can run white running lights.

 

attempted to fit so new aftermarket seats, i do say attempted as i seem to keep encountering problems, 1 fits fine, 1 base plate seems all kinds of wrong

 

Got any pics?
