SABLT194 03-31-2006, 06:05 AM Are you going with ladder bars, 4 link, or staying with a Torque Arm setup?

lt1camaroman93 03-31-2006, 01:49 PM 4-link setup. It looks killer Phil, you should snap some photo's of the inside... It looks scary.

95Bird 04-05-2006, 10:40 AM I have to say thats impressive. Are you doing this yourself?
shady93z 04-06-2006, 01:19 AM i am doing all the cutting and fitting myself but my friend jeff from rush racing is doing all the welding.
Anniversary-Z-man 04-06-2006, 02:24 PM Looking great Phil...nice progress!
I just saw this car last weekend when I was down at the shop and it's gone through ALOT of work!
Can't wait to see it when it's completed!

ltwonz 04-06-2006, 08:35 PM Looks crazy Phil. Did you make up your mind on motor combo yet? I can't wait to see this car in person. I also sent you a PM.
shady93z 04-08-2006, 07:59 PM not sure on motor yet. we'll see what's left in the budget afetr the chassis is done. probably not much.

67speeda 04-15-2006, 11:23 PM Just wondering...
What is your goal ET for your first few times at the track with that new setup?
looks great!
shady93z 04-16-2006, 11:39 AM i am quickly running out of money so for now it will get a mild motor and get driven on the street.
lt1camaroman93 04-16-2006, 01:01 PM Looks great Phil... Your gonna clean AAA supply out of 1 5/8" steel real quick like that!
96speed 04-17-2006, 07:57 PM Great time to fill up the rear with gear lube! :p :D

Rice Killer87 05-02-2006, 10:48 AM Your Z is lookin awesome man. Keep up the good work and good luck on a fast finish.
::two thumbs up::
MeanGreen97Z 05-02-2006, 11:43 AM How much are you spending on this set up?
shady93z 05-03-2006, 08:32 PM i am doing all the work myself so it is saving me tons of money. so far in the back half kit and rear end and just tubing, i have around $4500 in it, and then another $1600 for rims and tires. now i have to start on the sheet metal work (not looking forward to that).
ltwonz 05-06-2006, 12:58 PM Looking impressive Phil, you'll have to tell me when it's ready and i'll be at 41.
