I didn’t align for the track since i drive so much on the street and ran 5 days on the track and corded the front left. Align for track.
Note: “…complete the appropriate high performance brake burnishing procedure…” (Sec. 9.6 OM)
25? 0-60mph...? runs and hard stops followed by a ...? cooling period.
I did 10-60-10 repeated 50 times then drove 10 miles.
Fluid: Sec. 9.6 OM: “...it is recommended that the brake fluid be replaced with a high performance brake fluid that has a dry boiling point greater than 279°C (534°F). Do not use silicone or DOT-5 brake fluids.

4. Cooling:
a. Remove water deflector under the hood scoop
b. Sec. 9.6 OM: “...reduce the coolant/water mixture to a 30/70 mix”.
c. Add WaterWetter
I only added 1 bottle of water wetter and have not run on a hot day since but somehow I think the Z runs hot all the time anyway.
5. Oil:
a. 50W recommended in the manual
b. Recommended oil change mileage:
- I typically change oil every 4 track days (4-5 sessions of 20-30 mins/day), or 5,000 street miles. YMMV
yes 50 and the dealer will do it for free.
6. Tow Hooks:
a. Skylane765 ( www.zl1addons.com)
b. Other?
It is an insult to even think there are “others”. For so little money Skylane fixed a big error.
B. Optional
7. Data/video system:
a. SmartyCam/AiM Solo
b. Dash Logic
c. Traqmate
