 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.

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.

Renault appoints Dacia Logan creator to head its Nano-rival program in India

Sat, 29 Dec 2012

After watching the Tata Nano post sales numbers smaller than its engine displacement, Renault gave up on its much publicized intention to build a truly inexpensive car to rival it. Then, a month ago, reports emerged that Renault was resuming work on a couple of low-priced cars for emerging markets, but this time it would work with its in-house partner, Nissan. That plan envisions an offering for €3,000 ($3,888 US) and another for €5,000 ($6,400 US), both of which would be more spendy than the Nano but might avoid the charge of being cheap - and nasty - and instead be considered affordable.
A report in Reuters talks to the man in charge, Gerard Detourbet, who has been in Chennai, India since at least August working on the program. Detourbet led the Dacia Logan project and is considered "Renault's low-cost car specialist" and "the father of entry-car programs." This one is reportedly codenamed A-Entry and will create a "'sub-entry' architecture" that will provide roominess beyond the vehicle's price and class, and use an engine with a displacement of 800 cubic centimeters.
It isn't aimed at the Nano, though - it means to take on the products that make up 45-50 percent of India's car market, like the Maruti Suzuki Alto and Hyundai Eon. According to Reuters, out of the 2.6-million-strong Indian car market the Maruti Suzuki line-up alone nabs one million registrations annually. The Alto 800 begins at 244,000 rupees ($4,440 US), the Eon at 300,000 rupees ($5,559 US), the Chevrolet Spark at about 316,000 ($5,750 US); if Renault can nail its price targets it will just about bracket those three and be right in the game.

Suzuki recalling 184k GM-built models for fire risk

Fri, 23 May 2014

Suzuki is recalling 184,244 total units of the 2004-2008 Forenza (pictured above) and 2005-2008 Reno manufactured under contract by Daewoo, now General Motors Korea, between September 1, 2003, through July 30, 2008, for a risk of fire. The exact split in terms of number of each model isn't available yet.
In the vehicles, the heat generated in the headlight switch or daytime running light module could cause the parts to melt and cause a fire. If this sounds somewhat familiar, it's the same reason that 218,000 units of the 2004-2008 Chevrolet Aveo are being recalled. According to General Motors spokesperson Alan Adler: "It's the same issue."
Adler explained that as the contracted manufacturer, GM is responsible for finding a remedy to this problem and providing it to Suzuki. It's a similar situation as Toyota recalling the Matrix and giving the automaker the repair parts to fix the Pontiac Vibe, which shares the platform.

Suzuki recalling 200K crossovers over airbag woes

Mon, 16 Sep 2013

Suzuki may not be selling any new cars in the US anymore, but there are still plenty of them on American roads. Nearly 200,000 of those will need to be taken off said roads - for a little while, at least.
The National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has issued a recall for 2006-2011 Suzuki Grand Vitara SUVs and 2007-2011 SX4 crossovers due to a faulty airbag sensor. The issue apparently results from the front passenger-side floor mat causing the Occupant Classification System (OCS) sensor to malfunction over time, so whether there's a kid or an adult in the front seat, the airbag could deploy in the event of a crash.
As a result, Suzuki Motor of America is calling in 193,936 vehicles to replace the front passenger-seat cushion assembly. That's a whole lot of cars to recall, but it comes as no big surprise. Owners can expect to be notified in October. Full details in the recall announcement below.
