Houston Z's

bchinfoon · 01-20-2016, 06:13 PM

Hey guys, I have a for sale thread on Houston Z's Facebook Classifieds for my Fast Intentions Exhaust with 18" resonators, please check it out or PM me for details

I'm handing off the Z to JTran for a few days to do some work (intake/exhaust, wheels, & Front Bumper). Fingers crossed they hold up to their reputation here on the forums. Also have some OEM parts for sale for locals interested!

Couldn't be happier with the work JTRAN does for my Z!

so the mods look great.

HOWEVER, my ABS light & traction control are all on. JTRAN is aware of this and said it was due to the difference in wheel diameter. After looking into it, it seems like that could be the case or maybe they damaged the speed sensors. anyone else have an issue like this? Does the car 'learn' the new tire sizes and adapt to the differences? Thinking it might visit the dealer on Monday to get it sorted.

What size wheels did you go with?

295/35/20

I was previously running that no problem, now running 255/35/20 315/35/20, no issues.

whats the offset of the rims? maybe that's the difference? I've heard others running the same tires too with no issues. The weird part is that the christmas tree doesn't light up immediately on startup. takes until I reach 30-40 mph.

Does anyone get together to discuss the ownership and love of their Z? I am seeing more Z's around but I see no Houston activity or even recent chit chat.

The forum is rarely used, most discussions are kept online via Facebook/Instagram/etc. Check out my signature for all the Houston Z links.

Also, there are weekly/daily get together, which are posted on FB.
