Thanks guys, I ordered the Yokohamas from The Tire Rack. Looking forward to trying them out. Will get an alignment too. I don't want to take camber out of the rear, I just want everything to be to spec. What's a good alignment shop in Orange county or San Diego Country that will do a good...

Time for new tires on my Zanardi, the rear Bridgestones are already wearing into the cords on the inside of the rear tread. I am not happy with the Bridgestones, as I discussed before I think they may have weathered from their age. Under braking the front tires do not feel like they have much...

It was $299 + sales tax.

Too Dirty, eh? I see the ACUALP on sounddomain.com, but I don't think they have the KCA-130B adapter. The only place I found online that has it is Chuchfield, and they're out of stock untill August! Any other ideas? -Eric

Yep, that was my zanardi at the meet. It was pretty cool hanging with everyone and checking out the cars. Lots of head turns from people seeing all those bad ass cars in one area, and when we all left the parking lot. I'll give Sounddomain.com a call. Thank you -Eric

I bought the Alpine CHA-S632 MP3 Changer at a local Tweeters store, but they did not have the KCA-130B adapter. I'm having no luck finding finding any place that sells this adapter, or the ACUALP adapter. Where should I go to buy these, either local or online. The salesman thought I had to...

I'd like to show up too, and check out Area 51. Is it too late to add me to the parking list at 51? Thanks -Eric

Could it be possible to change the position of the spring pearch on the OEM shocks to alter the ride hight with the OEM springs? Or better yet remove the pearch and fabricate a threaded adjustable ride height spring pearch on the OEM Zanardi shocks. This way keep the origional dampening...

My track experience is limited. I went through the Russell racing schools (Laguna Seca at that time) and I raced in their Formula Mazda series, but this was in 95. I know all the basics of car controll, but I am very rusty not having been on the track for so long. However the race track is...

Hello all, I hope to get some track time for my 99 Zanardi later in the fall. I'm looking for advice on track tire and wheel combos. After searching the forums, i think I want to go with Yokohama A032. I have a good contract who runs Trackside Services, a major Yokohama racing tire...

I was just wondering, do the 3.2 motors have a dual or a single plate clutch? -Eric

While lookiing at the e-bay add for this Zanardi, I see it has a red lined trunk insert. I never got this with mine. Here's the link.. http://ebay-images.autotrader.com/images/auction/2002/05/16/1395065/03_JH4NA2128XT000155_1021560232994.jpg Did all the Zs come with this? Thanks -Eric C

As was mentioned, the 99 Zanardi has manual steering. I find the steering is light under normal driving. The steeing is only a little hard when parking. But the steering get's really heavy under hard cornering. It really takes a lot of muscle to get the car around a corner fast. I like it...

Honestly, I think I'd have a hard time convincing the dealer to replace the unit, since it appears to be working perfectly now.

Well almost by itself... When I received delivery of my Zanardi the CD changer was completely dead. No CDs would play, and it would keep skipping to the next CD. A few days later I ran a CD cleaning disk, and to my suprize the audio portion on the cleaning disk played, but it was very...
