Zachs engine is held on by zap straps. True story

LOL! :D
BTW, everything! If you look close and hard enough on my car, you'll find hundreds of zapstraps in different sizes, shapes and lengths all over the place.
-
I've got a few peices of fenderwell held in by zip ties.
Any wiring I've done on the car has been secured and bundled by zip ties....
-
Zap straps are holding my manual boost controller in place right now.....its soon to be changed to an EBC, so nothing afterwards? kinda seems wrong......

I honestly dont think I have one zap strap on any of my cars. but nice try remi

I use them alot. I mean alot. Way better at holding high boost than those little stupid spring clamps. Keeps things neat and tidy and keeps things from flopping around. Black ones work great and are hidden.
If you put the clasp part away from the area of view its hard to see.
Oh, another tip, if you nip them off with side cutters, it leaves that little sharp part that will snag your skin next time you have to stuff your hand in. I cut them off right flush with a sharp razor blade.

handy little things, used them to hold my mbc in place and even usedd them to hold my t-belt in place when I was changing my valve stem seals

Okay wow that almost scared me.. I was thinking "He used it to hold is t-belt in place? ??? WT?!" then I finished reading the sentence...
-
yeah I was going to leave that open.....
-
i have my wheels on with zap straps
-
My turbo is held in place by them. NASA high temp ones.
-
I zap straped my wheels on. along with my seat belts and seats. weight reduction!
-
One of my fender liners is held on primarly with zap straps..... Mikes custom repair job ;)
-
hehe, mine too, passenger side one, to make more room for my cold air stuff.
-

yes, yes it does. your just not good with computers, :P
-
Naw, he's just so good he broke it for you.
-
My colt has its fair share of zip tires. My front bumper is pretty much held in place by them!! and some of my IC piping is propped up by it as well.
-
A lot of my wires are bundled together and zap strapped, also my rear license plate.
My stock front bumper was held on for 3 years with just 5 bolts in the middle and one zap strap on each side.

Some of my exhaust is zap straped on my talon because when i removed it the bolts that go in the hangers were rusty and broke

Maurits has a better solution to hanging the exhaust. he uses a small chain, wraps it up, then padlocks it. I will have to take a pic of it.

lol .. good laughs .. omg ..
but for real those things are a life savor ! ;D
-
I appear to have a problem...
Zap straps are starting to make their way on to my bike.
Clutch cable is currently held in place by a pair of them as the original mount is no longer.
-
I got creative with my zap straps and now I can do 14psi everywhere without chance of these puppies giving up!

Of course it looks the same on the other side.
-
your t-bolt clamps are too big patrick. they are bottoming out.
And THAT is the biggest hack job for a GM MAS install i have ever seen. You should have just used PVC and a ton of plumbers glue instead.
No wonder your car runs shitty with work like that!
-
hahahah on my 92 awd i took the bumper off so many times that i started to hate removing the back 2 bolts from bumper to fender that i jus used some zap straps... Yes i was lazy but it worked perfect even when i raced at the track to the day i sold the car
-
I did Do-Rifto style lower bumper cover zip tie stitching for a repair recently :)
