other things I have since forgotten about the tranny..

Gears and an aluminium drive shaft are next on the menu...

 

Looks sweet man can't wait till my z looks like that.

 

have u been to the track with it.

 

nice improvement!

 

sadly no.. not yet.. It runs but shifts from 1st to 2nd way to early. I've got some trouble shooting to do... I runs pretty hard either way though when I shift it manually with the B&M, I just wish that I could control its shift from 1st to 2nd (without a manual valve body).

 

I had the same problem with early 1-2 shifts mine was tv cable adjustment. If you removed it when you did everything that was done and did not re-adjust you need to.

 

I saw the thread once that described that.. do you know which it was ?

 

Looks nice, but I think you need to finish painting your strut tower brace...

 

well there are alot of post on it here is one that describes how to do a search for cable adjustment and you will get much more.

I got stuck between having it black and having it red. I think instead I will have it chromed. I think that would look nice for the STB.

 

I like the black valve covers. They are not gaudy like chrome covers, but they look very clean. They kind of set some of the other items in the engine bay off.

 

Damn, sorry I guess I forgot to log out at your place Randy. You posted as me. Sorry.

 

I also bought the matching timing chain cover... doesn't matter though as you cant see it. Almost wish there was a power steering relocate option. I didn't think about the timing chain being covered when I had it put on... Doh

 

There's nothing like a well-routed set of nice spark plug wires.
