At this point, my time is more valuable than what I'd spend testing individual pieces. As I understand it, the rebuild kits come with "everything", so I'll replace "everything". I'm not going to tear into it to replace only the diode trio and not the brushes or whatever else is in the kit...

OK, Y'all convinced me to give the rebuild a shot! :beer Suggestions on where to buy the rebuild kit? (A direct link to what I need would be nice!)

Hey everyone... While attempting to reconnect my battery, I think I fried my alternator's electronics. I was having a difficult time getting those damn side-terminals to connect and I was arcing pretty good. Eventually I got the connections secure, but then noticed that my battery light was...

Long Time Friends, Look at this lil' nugget I just dug up! Some of you might recognize a face or two, :beer

Given the seemingly lack of accessibility to the engine bay, it looks like anything beyond an oil change could rack up maintenance hours pretty quick! In a mid engine setup, how exactly does one do any work on the top or sides of the engine? What’s this setup look like from the bottom-up? Can...

So...with the engine 'back there', this would seem to pose a problem for creating a convertible. Is there going to be a 10 year dryspell like there was between 1976 - 1985?

So the rear leaf spring replacement is complete. Ride height is unchanged. The car is now parked for the winter, but initial feedback from the few drives I was able to squeak in... Ride quality seems about the same. Maybe a bit more soft / less harsh? The rear end seems like it's ever so...

Thanks to everyone who's replied thus far. I'll go with the higher lbs/in spring. One of the main questions I was asking though, is there there are apparently pure fiberglass springs and there are composite springs. In my original post, the link to takes you to a product page that seems to...

For years I've been kicking around replacing my rear 9-leaf with the single fiberglass or composite spring. I'm now to that point since I'm doing so other minor rear-end work. I did some searching on the forums and read through a few threads, but none of the quite got me satisfied yet. I 100%...

Hey Muzz, I think it's cool that you came back nearly 10 years(!!!) later to update this thread. You don't have to use Haggerty to insure your car. Most of the general insurance companies will insure it also. As Tom Bryant noted, you'll want to do it for Agreed Value. Otherwise, the car gets...

Yeah, like a little over 11 years since the last post, but hey... sometimes cold cases heat up years later! :L Welcome to the forum! :thumb

It also doesn't have the telltale 6-piston calipers up front nor the cross-drilled rotors. I'm convinced this 'mystery' is solved. :thumb Elaine, :duh You can tell I've been away awhile when I didn't think to simply ask one of our resident "GS Diva"s! :L

Take a look at the pictures of this car. They are accurate in terms of this is the car being rented out. However, I don't think this is a GS. It's missing any GS badging and it doesn't have the naca ducts on the rear fenders behind the door. Nor does it have the front air intake, but I...

Hey! Resurrecting my own thread!!! That's a change... So my buddy got a 2015 with the 7-speed manual. CAGS is still there. Sucks. Gotta find a defeat mod for it. DOD kicks in when you're driving in ECO mode. It's nearly imperceptible unless you are trying to notice it. Although with the...

Like many people here, I first met Bud at the CAC's very first CruiseFest (2004) in Auburn, Indiana. Bud had no problems stating things like they were. Whether it was just his upbringing, the job that he retired from, his military experience, or a collection of all things, Bud was the kind of...

Neat idea! If you ever have a special sale where the lug guides come with a free ZR1, I'm in for a set! :L

I don't think either of them are representative of what the Zora will look like. Yeah, the orange sketch has a vette logo on it, but front hood scoops that big don't make sense on a midengine car. It definitely looks more Camaro-ish. And the other rendering on the computer is probably just...

Considering that our cars are 30-40 years old, this thread is barely old! :L

So...What color? :-)

*Thread Resurrection After 8 Years* :D Jodie, did you unscrew the ball and check the spring under the button? Does it work properly for Park and Reverse, just not the lower 1-2 positions?
