Murph Z32

Hey I'm new to zdriver. I just bought a black on black 90TT. It's the best thing that ever happened to me.

Woot Woot! Welcome to ZDriver. Maybe you could tell us more about your Z? And how about some pics?

Murph Z32

It's bone stock except for the stereo. It runs like a crack head from the cops.

Virgin?






j/p. Welcome to the Darkside and ZDriver.com. When you have a problem or need to know something, search first please... over the past 17 years, almost any question you could think of has already been asked and most likely answered (and yes, that includes the dumb ones like "can I run my Z on hydrogen?").

Murph Z32

Thanks for the advice. I've noticed how some people get roasted for not using the search option.

Welcome to the forums. Thats a very clean Z you got yourself. Enjoy!!

its funny cause its true. that happened a month after i joined i think. but welcome to zdriver. as he said serch first, but there are things that sometimes you just cant pull up, or an ongoing problem you cannot diagnose. hey, wanna trade your Z32 for my S30??? haha, its a pretty sweet car!

Murph Z32

No thanks. Too bad you don't have a 4 cylinder Fiero with the frame streched though.

snwbrderphat540

Hydrogen Power....that's just too funny.

snwbrderphat540

i was hoping soo..... that was the strangest thing... but yeah fill the pro we all like to know stuff about one another. how the z treating you so far?

Murph Z32

Oh God it's great. I made everyone I work with watch the twin turbos kick in comercial at least 5 times. It was 78 degrees today and I took off the t-tops for the first time. I can't explain it. I've wanted this car since I was 10 years old. The only thing that sucks about having a Z is that I don't have diplomatic immunity from speeding. I wish I had a harem that I could use as leverage to bribe a congressman or something.

Comorat2x2

That comercial actually makes me tear up a little Damn shame I had neither the money or the maturity to buy a TT brand new in 96 when I was in the Army. Oh well, it's for the best, I would have murdered it through neglect.

I know what you mean though man, my Z is the only car I've ever had that makes me smile while I drive

Murph Z32

Ok here are some of the mods I want to do. I may need your help. My car only has 16,811 original miles on it so I want to be tasteful. I want to get the Z1 motorsports 400hp package, An underdrive pulley (with 60k service) and an intercooler upgrade. Cosmetically, I want to put on the 99 jspec xenon headlights and put on clear turn signal markers. Finally, I want to put on new wheels and tires. What do you guys think?

CanyonCarver

That sounds pretty tasteful. I'm pretty sure the stock i/c's are good for well over 400 h.p., so upgrading them may be a little overkill.

b300z

16XXX???? if you dont mind me asking, how much did you pay? and where do you live?

some people are against the hks hyper exhaust due to its "ricer" looks. it is the best flowing catback for the z tho. many people will recommend either the Specialty Z exhaust, or B&B exhaust. both of which i believe sound and look the best out of all the options. they are more expensive as well

if you havent yet, try shopping around for parts for your TTZ. RIZZ'Z link page below has a list of vendors. i would recommend shopping at importpartspro.com, conceptzperformance.com and specialtyz.com. also, check out ashspecz.com for your ecu

also, you should look into the jspec bumper and taillights.

snwbrderphat540

yeah i say screw changing those lights and get a 99 jspec front fascia.

Murph Z32

I paid about 18k for it. It was worth every penny. The car is almost perfect. 3 door dings, (someone should pay with their life for that) and I guess the front bumper could be repainted. There are some rock chips b/c the guy I bought it from drove it from Penn. to Springfield Mo. As for the HKS I think it looks pretty cool and aggressive, not to ricey.

Murph Z32

Those headlights are a must. I don't care if they're 1800 dollars. I'll pimp out my little sister to get them.

snwbrderphat540

WHY! there is almost NO difference in lights, the glass doesnt have the nipples on them, and they are Xenon, you can convert yours to Xenon for 200 dollars and it works just as good if not better than stock Xenon headlights because you can choose what K rating you want and the car has projectors for mainlights stock, so they work perfectly.

EDIT: and i see your from springfield Missourri... not rediculously far from me, specially if i make my way down to SIU some weekend. B300Z is prolly much closer though.

b300z

you can get HIDs and someone over on 3zc.com made the 99 headlight insert, though im not sure how well it ended up. if both of these are plausible, you would be saving a pretty penny.

if not, check conceptzperformance for the left had drive modified 99 headlights

Murph Z32

ConceptZ was where I saw them with the pre-wire. For 200 bucks to bulid my own though. I think I'm gonna search this.
