What smog crap could i removed and plug? pics...something...i know theres got to be some stuff to remove, and yes i did use my search, but nothing...

 

you can remove everything. almost all vacuum lines can be removed(except for the lines going to fpr and iac.) i removed everything from my 85. here are the only pics i have of the engine bay as is but i will post some befor pics to help you see what all was removed..

before.




after

 

not sure why the first 2 came out that small but if you save them and open them you can zoom in and probably see it better

 

that would be great..i just would like to clean it up and maybe it will help...if i cant fix my ac or my cruise, im gonna remove both..but thanks for the reply

 

your welcome, your z being an 87 (i assume from you sig) you have all that extra crap on the drivers wheel well. a friend of mine had an 86 and we removed that stuff as well and replaced his exhaust with an 84 exhaust so there wouldn't be a hole in the down pipe. but it ran fine. just be careful not to remove the lines going into the firewall also. they go to your climate control. without them you wont be able to chose between defrost,floor or face. air will just blow out of all vents

 

lol...the defrost works but not the face..it sucks no air either, but i figured thats r12 done leaked out, ill do a conv with 134 one day... my cruise stoped working also, i figure it was vac lines but still nothing... it comes up and says cruise cont. and nothing works , it did when i first got it.

 

when i got my 85 the cruise didn't work either. the switch worked and the light in the cluster came on but it still wasn't working. i tried the vac lines and got nothing so i yanked it out, 3 days later i decided that since there are t-tops if i get hot i will just remove them and drive faster. thus the ac was removed. lol it works for me plus i noticed a slight gas mileage gain as well

 

seriously? well iv been thinking lol,, so maybe ill do the same..as far the belts go, hopefully theyll have them here at my parts store..

 

yeah removing the ac takes a lot of strain off the engine therefore freeing up a few more horses and better fuel mileage. i didn't notice the hp gain as much because it is probably like 2-4 hp.

 

yeah, i cant really tell by the pics, when i zoom in , its blury...

 

ok i will try and find some other pics of it before. but if you look at yours and then the pics of mine after i removed everything you should be able to tell what is gone.

 

alright thanks alot man
