Re: Project White Devil (1991 Z28)
Looks like the cost of the tanks is about the same no matter where you buy them from. Ill just order them from Hawks I guess. Thanks
As for updates on the car, I am in the middle of doing a drum to disc swap and should be done this weekend.

Mid Winter update. I have been in the middle of doing a drum to disc swap. I chose the Baer 13" Eradispeed 2pc rotors to match the fronts. Im also running Ed Millers custom backing plate brackets and pair NOS PBR calipers from a 1992 Z28. I will be modifying the proportioning valve with a new spring.

Dude. Bro. Long time no see! This looks sick! I'm going to do almost the same thing with my rear brakes, AND I've been drooling over those wheels. I found this thread by googling the model number on a thirdgen.
What size/width/offset/backspace are they? How durable does the anodizing seem?
I have GTA wheels on my car, including custom 10" wide rears with 315s on them, but they don't make any damn 16" tires in that size anymore. So I think I need to step up to 17s.
I love the way this car looks.

Super sharp! There are many days when I wish I would have left my car TPI powered. That Z28 emblem on the wall is the bee's knees man!

I was and still torn on pulling this drivetrain out and doing an LS/T56 swap. Whats keeping me from doing it is the condition of this car and how nice it rides. It has just shy of 59K on it and drives like brand new so I cant beat it.
Maybe one day when I get sick of the Honda Civic performance.

Re: Project White Devil (1991 Z28)
It’s been a while since I’ve updated this thread but here is the newest addition to the car. I figured it was time to let go of the 30 year old airbag wheel so I replaced it with a custom made MPI wheel. Custom yellow stitching, removed the logo and removed the 12 o’clock positioning stripe from the top. Custom wrapped in suede and finished off with a DSE horn button.
