the thick header wrap was causing the rubbing issues.. It still rubs but not as bad!
I have z 1 motor mounts ready to install.... I haven't got around to getting people to install them and adjust away from the headers... So, more on that in time....

Thanks for checking in....

Yesterday I ventured down to Montgomeryville to pay the good folks at R/T Tuning a visit. Ended up at ~317 whp, ~259 wtq after doing the standard CAI, HFC, CBE upgrades. No more pedal lag and I definitely noticed a difference in "pep" while driving back home... although I didn't really push it too much due to the weather combo of cold + rain.

I'm excited to take it out once it's warmer and see what the butt dyno can detect.

Weather is still not the best here in Toronto, sadly, we have some snow today. Last week Sunday was amazing weather. I took the Z off life support, and rolled her into the driveway.

Power washed, then foam blasted, then power washed again, then applied clay bar with dish soap and water combination (to strip off wax, used a spray bottle for control), then I washed down with water again, then I used a leaf blower, then I used a microfiber cloth to pat her dry, followed up with autoglym super resin polish, then topped off with Meguiars gold glass wax. After that, I added some tire dressing, and took her for a highway run. Back in the garage she sits, until the weather is regularly past 12 degrees.

Also, with this COVID crap there aren't many places to go, so there's that.

The global warmimg rally has been postponed until July here due to cold weather, so i was able to take my Z to the rally venue and smoke the fvck out of my tires and drift where all the hippies would have been complaining and worshipping liberalism.

First seen them at ZDayZ at the Z1 tent a couple of years back. Picked one part up and looking at it. Asked Spence what the price was. He told me. I put the part down and walked away in disbelieve.

Been tuning my stock block BP kit build with Seb the last few days. Things were great up until today, a light tapping coming from somewhere. If I didn’t know any better, I’d say it is an exhaust leak. Going to take everything apart tomorrow.. praying it’s not from one of the headers.
