MSA 07 Z Car Show... ZDriver Style!!!
Some pics from the MSA 07 show... Lots of fun, till my Z gave up the ghost at 2am outside of Barstow.
The $450 tow to my uncle's place in Las Vegas...
***UPDATE 8/29/08***
A year and a half after the road trip disaster, the Z is back... second re-build complete. Turns out piston pins on cylinder #5 & #6 were loose and cocked the piston at an angle in the cylinder, scraping away the walls. To make a long story short, cyl 5 & 6 have been bored & sleeved, the pistons received new rods, new P90 turbo head w/ 5 angle valve grind, ARP head studs, oh... and my highly esteemed HKS headgasket... yeah, two of the coolant ports were not punched into the gasket, so the head wasn't flowing coolant properly. DAAHHHHH!!!! Oh wait... my highly esteemed Centerforce Dual Friction clutch... it was eating away the flywheel bolts. Turns out this is a wide-spread problem on their clutches, but they forget to mention that when they sell you the clutch. Solution: Grind the top raised edge off the flywheel bolts. Now to the pics:

Not too much to update... Z has been garaged for the winter. Yesterday I brought her out, and re-installed the cat so I can take it to inspection. MSA is one month away!
