State inspection is done.

Alignment is done. Specs are. Front camber -2.2, caster +6.2, toe 1/16" in. Rear camber -1.8, toe 1/16" in.

The Z is a bit on the dartie side. Couldn't push to hard because it's only 40F with wind gusts to 50 mph.

New gauges work. Seen oil pressure as high as 110 at 5,000 rpm. Water temp was 180F with the new hood vents. Diff temp went to 200F. Turned on the pump and watched the temps drop. Turned the fan on and the temps dropped even quicker.

The OS Giken diff is a bit clunky in operation at low speed. You know it's working.

Felt so good driving the Z again!

Pic's of the finished diff cooler install.

I have been surprised, the shed water pretty good. In a mild rain I had no water get into the engine bay.
