- Mon Mar 22, 2010 2:37 am #182779 You can remove the a/c belt it wont pull harder but it will give you some hp back due to drag on the motor the same with the power steering belt. You can also remove the whole a/c system and shave about 25 pounds off of the car. Good luck with the build :thumb:

- Mon Mar 22, 2010 3:36 pm #182860 the z6 motor would have came with a si trans if it was in a si hatch, or a ex trans if it was in an ex coupe, ive heard some say the ex and si trans are diff, others say there the same, i cant confirm or deny this, i think there pretty close to the same tho. the sohc si trans isnt to be confused with a b16 si trans... as for your ac, the only time the ac robs power is when the clutch on the compressor is engaged, as far as crusing with the ac off is robs virtyally no power, but it will save on weight :thumb:
