Hiya, CdocZ. As you can see, I'm done with that other forum. Too much bickering over Domestic Vs. Import there. I did a goodbye post there but the Mods deleted it. There's a few names here I recognize from that other board. But fortunately, it's the names of people that were reasonable and actually had some knowlege.

I got the Z back in Sept. 03. But I have been out here on this island since April of 04. It will be like having a new car again when I get home.

Eventually, I plan on modifying it. Unless I get a really good job after I retire from the Navy. If I get on as an Air Traffic Controller with the FAA, we are going to trade her and my Camaro for one of the new Z06s. But if I get a fair job I'm just going to keep the Z and once I'm done with the warranty and racing in the stock classes mods will be coming.

APS makes the best TT set up for the car now. There was a crank angle sensor problem with the Zs that none of the other manufacturers caught. So Greddys have been blowing up left and right. APS makes the most power and so far I've only heard of one of them losing an engine and that was due to a bad tune.

APS also makes a single turbo set up and I'll be interested in seeing how those work out. They have only had the Single on the market for about 3 months.

Superchargers apparently go well with the motor, and good choice, nice car! By that list in your sig it seems as though you've got good taste!

yeah APS have a good reputation here as well, their work on wrx's and XR6T's has all been highly praised.
