The New "What did you do with your Z today" (with off topic replies) XXXIII

JARblue

how many drinks in were you already? zero? lol

I was trying to pry down on the plate to compress the springs so I can remove the last bolt for the OEM control arm. Didn't even come close to compressing it enough when I heard it crack.

I do have an extra Nismo suspension sitting about 3 feet away. But I really don't want to screw with that until I have purchased the rest of the suspension pieces I want. Ugh...

Wore myself out today... went outside at 8am and shoveled out a trailer full of mulch, then mowed the lawn.

Ate lunch and then started putting stain/sealer on my 1400 sq ft dock. That took from 1pm to 8pm. Seven hours of crawlng around on my knees was extremely fun..

Holy crap, I am ready for ZdayZ. Wednesday is bath day for the car.... Thursday we are heading out at 9:30am. We are going to walk up Clingmans Dome first and then head to Fontanna... Luckily, I am only 165 miles away from Fontanna

Guess i'll get those craftsquare mirrors now or the coolerworx shifter since I am saving all this gas money not going to ZdayZ now.

I ordered my craftsquare mirrors March 20th from RHD Japan. Not due to get them until the end of June.

Japanparts is $50 cheaper than RHD, but currency transfers are trickier.

I have the evo-r knockoff ones which are decent. but the necks wobble a bit and one of the copper screws was stripped so I had to fabricate a makeshift screw to hold everything in place on the drivers side. Nothing major, but barely touching the mirrors results in having to peposition them every single time.

I also really want that shifter since Madwi got his. Not sure how bad the install would be though.

I've never dealt with Japanparts (forgot about them) but the couple of times I've dealt with RHD they've been really good to deal with.

Even though I didn't install my coolerworks shifter I know the procedure pretty well. The hardest part is getting the old shifter brace out. The install itself is pretty easy.

Just installed mine and they look sick AF. The fact that I have ~$800 sticking out of both sides of my car means that I'm never letting another car park next to me ever again. Maybe keep some traffic cones in the trunk... or those anti-pigeon spike strips.

I paid $450 for mine

Sort of wishing I had shelled out for the -R mounting option and blue lenses. And the Craftsquare decals you can only get when ordering new.

I have the blue lenses, they look disgustingly awesome. Might try and see if I can get a rear-view in blue. Has to be cheaper than tinting the rear window so I stop getting blinded by every ******* car on the road.
