Loud Pedal Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 It looks like monday or tuesday she'll be ready. Went with the Textralia clutch instead of the SPEC. That was a tough call, I hope it works out like I expect. I also decided to change out the rubber for Nitto Invo fronts ( thanks anmracing ) and hoosier R6 rears. She should hook up nicely. If it rains, I'll be calling a cab though. The oem tires have some life left in them. The rears have already been heat cycled and they're free to a good home. PM me if you want 'em.Anybody have any opinions about the beefed up tunnel plates? He has one down there, and mine's already off. Just wondering if its worth it.*potatoe potatoe potatoe potatoe potatoe potatoe* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert and Elizabeth Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 The heat is so inconsequental to us. We don't leave CD's in the center console because of it. It also add's weight to your Z. My vote: No, not necessary.Just make sure Jason has that aluminum foil stuff in there (he knows what we are talking about) in the tunnel and you'll be fine.

Bigfoot Posted February 24, 2008 Share Posted February 24, 2008 I don't know about C6's, but on the C5 the beefed up tunnel plates really stiffen up the whole chasis. Plus the heat shielding is great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Loud Pedal Posted February 24, 2008 Author Share Posted February 24, 2008 The stiffening factor would be the primary gain. And hell, when is that a bad thing?Like E said, the heat is not really a big issue but being AZ... it certainly wouldn't hurt either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Desertdawg Posted February 25, 2008 Share Posted February 25, 2008 Thanks Phil I just got the potatoe thing too....Dave, the weight thing isn't really that big of a deal. you will be suprised when you pick up the new tunnel plate just how light it really is, mine couldn't have weighed much over 5 pounds. And it's about as low to the ground as you can get if you had to add weight... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
