Great looking Zr2. I used to live close to Kutztown and then over the Jersey side from Bucks. One of my best friends is in Doylestown. He has a nice Rubicon he got because his wife said his hummer was too bad on gas. He is still the only man I know who actually took a fully loaded H2 and ran it through the muck every other week or so.

I could make a trip down if you have some good wheeling spots. K.U. is a bit far but Bucks Cty is only like 2 hours or so.

THose vette wheels, did you use spacers or is that how they sat with stock off-set? I have a chance to get a whole crashed vette for 2300 or so and I am thinking of swapping rims (and engine, i would rather do that then fix my upper manifold leak)

 

thanks for the complements on the Z, and i would have to sway with your friends wife on the fact that an h2 gets horrible gas milage lol, all my buddies are running jeeps because of the capability and cheapness of lifts for them so i understand the jeep thing but i like a little more of a challenge so i bought the z and of course iv always wanted one.....as for wheeling we have a spot like 5 mins from my house thats pretty good, your wheeling the hole time on the way in and everywhere in-between as to is a little hard to get back there but i did when i just had shackles and 33's, as for the vette wheels i didn't run spacers but if i was to do it again i would run an 1inch on the front and maybe 1.75 on the back because they rubbed on my sway bar.

 

Holy crap Im getting 13 mpg on stock 31's with a k+n filter. 46k on engine i dont think it should be that bad. Anyone have suggestions? I get 14 max with a very light foot. And pm me as to not jack his build thread please.

 

yeah with my stock 31's i was getting 17.2 so i donna whats going on there lol...

 

sighs. maybe it wont get any worse after 33s. hopefully at least.

 

There are a few members here that hang around over there, keep trying, lots of great info on mods & builds there.

 

yeah will do, Nepa zr2, is ur truck running in open loop? sounds like its either that or running really rich, did u get a new engine? maybe something with your sensors isn't hooked up right or a bad o2 ? i donna i would be trying to figure that out...

 

Yeah, I was thinking the same thing. What degree thermostat are you running?

 

How would I find these things out? Seriously new to auto mechanics.

 

well for the open loop, make sure ur truck is coming to temp, like 210....mine runs one click below the middle of the gage, for the o2 i would assume it would through a check engine but not sure.
