I have something similar, but I added K&N oil to them today. I would like some
prefilters, but they cost more than the filters!

I forgot what a joy it was to take the front of the car off. I brought my kid along to teach him new swear words.

Working on installing the Setrab oil cooler that has been sitting in a box for too long. Next is brake caliper/rotor upgrade.

The bumper really isn't that hard to pop off.

I think that was the first thing I did to my car... Pop the bumper and look at the air intakes.

Sounds like you could do this. Come on over and put it back on while I drink a beer. :)
I have a heated garage, and my the looks of it, the heat will be on until june.

How have you been? :hello:

I just got over being sick for spring break week. Better now. Crazy busy with work. Going to list a few cars to sell here soon and make more room in my garage. '84 Indy pace car and '29 ford rat rod.
The Z has been sitting too long, so I thought to put a little work into it.
Replaced the battery, it was old and sitting for a year didn't help it at all.
Now I need to work on the drivers window after that.
If I keep the car any longer, I am going for a carbon fiber hood, Door handles to be blacked out, and headlights. Not sure If I will tackle that myself yet.
If the car was any other color, i would probably leave them alone.
I just got my lift working in the garage, but I am going to try it out on my kids car first once I clear the debris field.
How have you been doing? Any new toys?

Wow, sounds like you have a bunch of fun projects in the garages!
Which lift do you have? It is on my list of stuff to buy so I am always bugging people that have them. Good idea testing it out on the kids car lol.

I bought a bunch of crap lately for the Z. Fast Intentions tow bar, which I probably wont be able to use but gonna try. F.I. oil cooler, F.I. Fast-500 fuel return system, F.I. exhaust, Southbend Stage 3 Daily clutch w/ Zspeed 17Lb flywheel and quiet disc, CMAK and new Master. If it ever warms up enough for me to lay on the concrete, I will hopefully get them installed. Not sure where to take the Z for the clutch install though.

Leingod 04-10-2018 08:08 AM

Let's go to his house for the installs!!! hahahahaha

Wow, you have a great parts list there.
My lift is a central post that comes up from the concrete. Not sure of the brand. I had to cut the concrete to repair the air line. The air pushes on top of an oil reservoir that pushes up the car. It was part of a auto repair garage that burned . I bought the property and leveled the place. There was a full sized F250 on the lift when the ceiling burned. I am sure it will hold a 370Z. I put a new steel building up and got with a friend with better tools than me to cut the floor. I also upgraded the drain.
You are always welcome to come over if I am home and use it if needed.

Thanks man. I have been getting some in-home care lined up for her and trying to figure out where she has all her money stashed. Getting numerous texts almost hourly from my sisters who only want to tell me what to do, second guess me and offer no actual help just adds to the fun.

Oh yeah -- then there are my colleagues who think my "Do Not Disturb" status does not apply to them.

:icon14:

eastwest2300 04-10-2018 10:44 AM

damn man, geez.. well prayers for you, that you'll have the patience to deal with this situation, and prayers to your mother and the rest of your family, that God's grace will come upon you all.

Leingod 04-10-2018 10:53 AM

Mr. EW. We have some KILLER sushi burritos here if you're ever in the central NY area.

Sorry to hear OnZ. Family with only bossy intentions is never any fun.
