    Faster for 1991, ZR-1 or SY

    Re: Faster for 1991, ZR-1 or SY I don't have the slip handy, but my '95 ZR-1 ran a best of 12.63@113 with a 1.94 60ft in bone stock form, including the tires (Goodyear GSCs). Anybody that says a ZR-1 is hard to launch is 100% correct. The car with stock gearing is capable of 60MPH in 1st gear...

    Did I do something dumb?

    Re: Did I do something dumb? My Ty just passed blowing literally zero's on the test. Had to run it twice because it didn't register anything the first time. Bone stock with 123k miles on the clock. Just in good shape. It really sounds like a vacuum leak you are chasing. My time is pretty...

    Typhoon towing dilema...

    Re: Typhoon towing dilema... Actually, that wasn't mine. A buddy called me up to make sure it wasn't because he saw it on the side of the road, looked like it was having problems, he also noticed the 3 gauge pod. Mine looks 100% stock minus the ZR1 wheels/2" lowering-leveling. No gauges in mine.

    Typhoon towing dilema...

    Re: Typhoon towing dilema... She doesn't want to have another car in the driveway is the problem. Plus, I can't bring myself to drive something I don't like, even if it is just to the track and back.

    Typhoon towing dilema...

    I know towing isn't the best idea for a Typhoon, but I'm faced with an upcoming decision that I just can't figure out a solution for... My wife and I currently have an '03 V8 4runner and the Typhoon. We'd like to get either a C5 Vette or a MKIV Supra in the future but to do so, the wife says...

    Anyone done a 6 speed conversion?

    Re: Anyone done a 6 speed conversion? I would be interested in the info... Any chance you could get some pics of the 'adapter' to bolt the transfer case on to the T-56 and also what needs to be done for an output shaft? Thanks

    Change tranny fluid every 5000 miles and get better TCC Lock

    Very true, but you have to pull it apart a first time. I forgot to put the drain plug in the pan this last time I put the tranny in, so I guess I have one more time to make a mess.

    Change tranny fluid every 5000 miles and get better TCC Lock

    Only slightly related, but I found the best drainpan a DIYer can use for doing tranny fluid changes: Go to your nearest Walmart and buy one of their huge storage containers (I got a big grey Sterilite brand one), as big as you can get. They cost 6-10 bucks and are quite a bit larger than the...

    Tranny cooler on Typhoons?

    BMM-70297 Oil Cooler, Transmission, 13.5x9x3.5 Cooler, w/9.5 in. Fan/160Deg.Thermo., 1/2in.NPTs As for the filter, I meant to say its about 1/2 "above" the crossmember. I suppose if something on the road kicked up and punctured a hole in it, I'd be in a bit of trouble. I haven't seen any kind...

    Tranny cooler on Typhoons?

    Here goes.... The filter is actually about 1/2" about the bottom of the crossmember, it just looks lower in the pics. I probably should have mounted it at an angle like I've seen other people do it, but with it mounted vertical, I won't make too much of a mess changing it. I still...

    Tranny cooler on Typhoons?

    I've got one of the big B&M ones with the fan mounted under the passenger side on my ty. I'll see if i can dig up the pics here in a sec.

    Bought a Ty (smoke from dash/steering column)

    Its the ignition switch mounted on the top of the column up under the dash. I worked on a buddies Syclone that was doing the exact same thing. Looked like they replaced it at some point with an incorrect model that didn't have the proper retention device, causing it to come a bit loose, then...

    Doh! Broken propshaft punched a hole in my tranny.

    Sorry to hear that.... :( BUT, did the exhaust actually hit the crossmember? :-?
