 Time has come to sell my 98 Z28 Camaro, I've had the car over 10 years now. Purchased out of Florida from an older gentlemen with 99k miles. So you can see the car has averaged 2400 miles a year.Although i doubt i've put 5k miles on in the last 5 years. Would love to keep but a new addition to the family comes the need for more space.


H/C/I car with a truck manifold front mount turbo. Have about 800 miles on turbo build just making sure any bugs were worked out before final tune. Car has a decent base street tune with HP tuners (2 bar SD), conservitive 4lbs at 13 degrees timing. Never made it to a dyno (not alot of tuners to choose from here in Utah)
Car made 400+ All motor so it should be fairly stout with boost. 

Motor is a stock internal LS1 with ARP rod bolts, 123000 miles. Checked compression when i started the turbo build last winter and 6 were 180+ and the other 2 were 177 and 176.

Manifolds have been coated as well
2.5" hotside coated and DEI titanium wrapped
76mm ON3 turbo w/96 AR with lava blanket
ON3 50mm BOV
44 mm wastegate with 4# spring (also have a 10#)

AEM Failsafe Wideband- super cool product http://aemelectronics.com/?q=product...failsafe-gauge

Billet specialties fly wheel
adjustable master cylinder
 

VFN 3" SS hood
Sitting on custom cut 17" Centerline wheels with Toyo Proxes tires
275 rear and 245 front.

 
New interior right before turbo build, was originally a tan leather car now its ebony, no rips or tears. Dash was nice until i got it back from the interior shop that did the headliner, now its cracked.
Exterior is in really good condition, (i think for the year) always garage kept, typical chips and whatnot from driving, no dents or big dings. Has a couple spots where the last owner tried touching up some chips that don't match .

Now time for what needs done,
Obviously a final tune- I have HP Tuners Pro w/4 credits i'll include for the right price. Used the other 4 on this car
Pinion angle needs adjusting, has a slight vibration at freeway after the i installed the lowering springs.
Pinion seal and output shaft seal leak after driving awhile i'd assume from the vibration wobbling the seals
Car has no power steering currently,I have all the parts just removed it. It need new lines, i was going to do this but the rack had a leak and torn boot so i didn't want power steering fluid spewing all over the hotside.

I would clean up the engine bay a little, clean up and loom the power wires, fab a battery hold down, etc.

UPDATE 9-19. Forgot to mention the rear end may need a new clutch disk pack, doesn't spin both tires all the time. also i just pulled plugs to check them over and two of the drivers plugs were a little wet so i think the valve guide seals are wearing, car has NO smoke on start up or under acceleration.

And here is a short idle vid.

Suzuki Vitara shows its face ahead of Paris debut

Thu, 28 Aug 2014

The death of Suzuki's American automotive operations can be chalked up to many, many things. One thing it cannot be blamed on, however, is the arguable goodness of its products. The company's criminally underrated offerings included the Kizashi sedan, the SX4 compact and your author's personal favorite, the Grand Vitara.
The GV rode on a radically different version of General Motors' Theta platform, which underpins the American manufacturer's current crop of crossovers, like the Chevrolet Equinox. What made the Grand Vitara special, though, was that it wasn't just another run-of-the-mill CUV. Buying the cheapest model meant living with rear-wheel drive rather than the Theta's typical front drive. Spend a bit of money, though, and you'd end up with an honest-to-goodness off-roader, sporting selectable four-wheel drive complete with low-range gearbox. It also comfortably sat five, was reasonably efficient and was quite handsome. We aren't totally sure how it turned into this.
This, of course, being the new Vitara (it replaces the Escudo, the vehicle Americans know as the Grand Vitara), and it will make its global debut at October's Paris Motor Show, which has ditched its four-wheel-drive system for a part-time all-wheel-drive system called Allgrip.

Kei van campers are miracles of space utilization

Tue, Jun 22 2021

In the tight streets of Japan, tiny cars make a lot of sense, particularly the government-restricted kei class of cars. They're especially small with similarly small engines, and besides being easier to maneuver and park, they're also cheaper to own and run. But surely camping in one would be a somewhat cramped, unpleasant experience, right? Think again. YouTuber Tokyo Lens, someone who creates a variety of interesting videos about places, people and things in Japan, went on a camping trip with what seems to be a pop-top Suzuki Every kei van. He details his experience and highlights all the neat features crammed into the little space. It really is remarkable how much there is. We were particularly taken by the nice looking cabinetry, the fact that a person can pretty much fully stretch out in the pop top and that there's actually a microwave and a tiny sink with a water-tank-supplied faucet. Check out the whole video for a look at how much you can do with a small space, as well as some nice shots of the Japanese countryside. Related video: This content is hosted by a third party.

Suzuki Samurai lives on with new Jimny facelift

Thu, 15 Nov 2012

The Suzuki Jimny is "sold across 188 global markets," but one of them isn't ours. For UK buyers who can buy a Jimny in SZ3 or SZ4 trims, the 2013 model has just been introduced with tweaks peppered throughout the vehicle. First among them is a soft redesign up front, a new bumper, grille and hood updating the face and adding an extra 30 mm to the length of the little SUV. Breeze Blue metallic paint is a new hue but it's only available on the more expensive SZ4.
Inside, customers will find new headrests and ISOFIX child seat fasteners for both Jimny versions, and for the SZ3, new seat fabrics. The 1.3-liter engine with variable valve timing growls out 84 horsepower and 81 pound-feet of torque, returning 39.8 Imperial combined mpg if fitted with a manual, 38.7 Imperial mpg combined in the automatic.
On-the-road prices are £11,995 ($19,016 US) for the SZ3, £12,900 ($20,451 US) for the manual-equipped SZ4, £13,800 ($21,877 US) with the automatic. More information can be found in the press release below.
