Hello, to all.

My background:

I have three Z's: 90 NA w/160,000mi, 91 TT w/147,000mi, & 91 TT w/8,600mi (yes, 8,600mi). I usually say jokingly - One for each hand.

Lately, my free time has been spent designing a realtime data reader/logger for use with the 'consult' port. This has been a fun project but it has been serious work. It has been moving ahead nicely. There are other devices out there but this is a good challenge. If all goes well, the next project will be tapping directly into the eprom socket with a computer to adjust the maps in realtime.

I have been retuning my maps and have gained much knowledge as well as HP. I hope to give aide to posted questions where I can, though, I don't spend much time in forums.

Soon, I will be pulling out the engine of the NA to rebuild/replace it. It doesn't seem too difficult of a job but, first, I need to get an engine stand. Some projects that I have completed: removed/rebuilt/replaced both turbo (without removing the engine or trans.), replaced clutch & flywheel (with removing the trans, Haa), replaced PCV's, radiator, hoses, water pump, timing belt, alternator, & oil, have installed BOV's, exhaust system, steering control/tension rods, and finally, rebuilt the bose speakers amps - and I still have all of my fingers.

Because I need to trust my car at high speeds, top 172mph, I do all of my own work.

I just wanted to say "Hi," and relay some credits. I usually do not hang in forums, so no need to reply. Hope to help, though, when here and when I can.

BTW: Do not attempt 160mph+ without first increasing down-force. I did read a post about 'larger spoilers or not', and this is what got me to register here.

braff.
