Just got the car nistuned, runs great now. Only pushing 10PSI of boost. For now hehe.
Here's my 1986 2+2 turbo Z31. I had a low mileage turbo motor put in last year, before that the car wasnt running. The car with the new motor runs great, and I have plans for this car. I'm very fortunate to get a motor in such good condition & low mileage.It doesnt look like much but its a sleeper, at first glance you see a 2+2 which most enthusiasts know they aren't turbo. plus its an 80's car most people don't think the car still has its power.
As far as mods go i've got 3 inch pipeing from the turbo back, Magnaflow 3" cat with a K&N intake and a skunk turbo exhaust. Everything on the motor is new wireing, being it was a motor swap. Along with new intake pipeing.
There has been a lot of time fine tuning, diagnostics & dyno. Most of the power I get is from the tech work on the motor.It's amazing how a few minor adjustments can make your motor run better. Such as tuning down your fuel I run a little less rich than stock.The turbo runs at 8-10Psi which had been set while the motor was installed. Runs a little bit more than stock.
I havent ran against a Z31 turbo that can keep up. So this must mean I have a healthy motor & turbo.
Nobody shows love to the older imports.
Nobody runs the gold wheels anymore, all you see now a days are black & chrome. My wheels are 17X7.5 P235/45R17&P245/45R17. Wrapped with Maxxis tires. I have little to no burnout, chirps through shifts.
Look at the rear tire, flush with the flare of the fender, but still sticks out a little. Its a good stance.
My aftermarket headlamp housing with PIAA HID H4 bulbs. Simple procedure phenominal lighting. The HID kit comes with the H4 bulbs,ballasts,& the wireing. The wireing is plug n play, the hardest thing is puting your headlamp back in.
Tower bar I picked up from the Z shop.

The Z Sport Techs are very knowledgeable people, Its good to get info in person. Thats the shop I got the motor from, and the people that do all the real wrencnhing on my Z.
Extreme Psi goes without saying, you definantely need to check these guys out.

Still has a great interior. Even though my car is a 2+2 its either two people or three skinny brauds, that would be the only exception.
As far as pics go I don't have many at all, as is my digital cam isn't the greatest. But I will be adding more pics as I work on the vehicle ill get pics of the turbo and the under belly of the car.I havent got under the vehicle while I had a camera. Thanks for checking out my ride please leave feedback & rating. Anything about the Z cars feel free too drop some knowledge. Z Power!!!
