Ehhhh just another truck

[milano_red]

Yea man! Keep me posted on that roll out.

Also what did you do with your 205's?

[metalmonkey47]

I'm sure it will sound super beastly...

So there should definitely be a IA meet up man!

I think we're planning an old school roll out! I'll keep you updated


Moar on the truck... Not a lot has changed,

Really enjoying the look of the 225's over the 205's.





Some fucker hit my truck recently. I have NO clue where/how long ago but it's stupid. Makes me want to leave the truck as is and not paint it.



Random:



ALSO got some Recaro's from a buddy of mine for freeee They're stock Recaros from an '80 Suzuki Swift GTI and they are pretty damn comfy!



They aren't going to be hard to work with on the rails, and the stock belts fit around them in the same position. They are VERY comfy too. I may be able to have them mounted by Saturday afternoon. I'm off for the next few days,

I'm also FINALLY getting to the dyno tomorrow at 3pm. They've been busy, so I got an appointment for that time tomorrow. Then I'll go back in a month-ish and do it all over again.

Hell yea!! That stroker is going to hit a nice lick.

I plan on doing a 22r with a .440 lift cam this winter..

God that Z is gorgeous!!!!! Did you take any pictures of it's rear end??

I think so! I'll go look and see if i can dig some up!

16x8's???

Yessir! I was thinking about it, just for tire options on a 16 since 15's are the new 13 But I dunno, that's a long time coming.

I replaced the rear 205/60 with a 225/50 so it's a LOT nicer now and a ton smoother!



Also confirmed truck is getting LZ23 stroker soon! Give me about a month-2 and it should be in with a freshly rebuilt 5 speed!

LZ23 =

Z20E block
Z22 crank
Z20 long rods
86mm dished forged Mahle pistons
A87 Closed Chamber
.460 Racer Brown Cam
Big Z valves

and to top it off for now, A 32/36, Until I can afford to get a side draft 45 DCOE.

I have about $600 worth of parts that came in today. Exedy Stage 1 clutch, clutchless waterpump, trans bearing/seal/synchro kit, 12'' fan w/ thermostat, etc.

Put a KA or SR in there! I know what it's like to be carb'd truck slow. There's actually a lot of forum help on Ratsun for putting those motors in your truck.

KA & SR are out of my budget. I can't afford the big changes that have to go with it (bigger brakes, suspension, etc) but it MAY come down the road! For now I'm just gonna cruise.

I'm on Ratsun 24/7 and one of the top posters :P That place is crazy helpful.

---Copied from another forum

I haven't really done much other then drive it. My starter took a shit while I was driving around. Even with a dying starter I was able to get it to turn over JUST enough to fire it up. With my choke closed on a cold engine, it starts up very easily so it took very little effort. Since then, I've played with a few ideas.*

Trans will be coming out soon for a rebuild, and motor will PROBABLY be coming out for something with double the power. Just trying to work that out right now...
*
*
I'll order my ZG flares in a few weeks, months, days, idk. I have the money but I'm having trouble prioritizing right now, so I think I'll just sit on it and play with the idea for a while. Part of me wants to find some 16x8's with a 0 or - offset, so i can get the right tires on, but that's long down the road.

Anyways,
*
I painted the letters out pretty crappy on my spare just to get an idea of what it would look like, and I kinda like it. I always like raised white letters so I may paint them all out in a week or so when it's warm out and I can scrub down the tires.*

What do you guys think???

Yeah, those few $$$$'s will kill me if I can't get another damn job or full time hours again. Shit is ROUGH down here.

I texted you something about that

Running 93 octane isn't that bad. Only adds a few dollars a fill up.
