God-Speed hasn't posted since the 12th. Wonder what's up with him?

Good morning everyone!:tiphat:TGIF!:happydance:

He forgot to Wash His Hands.

He might be in Vegas. I'll go do some burnouts in his driveway and see if he comes outside.

:iagree: :hello:

Always enjoyed George Carlin... So him once, he was performing on a revolving stage. He got started on the 7 dirty words, it was the last part of the show, (I think he was a bit high) and it went on and on, they stop the stage and it went on and on... Really a funny night :happydance:

Great ride on the dragon today, not in the Z, but in my Miata, top down and music blaring, good weather and blue sky... Beat way to start the weekend...

Everyone have fun :driving:

:hello:

Working on the front porch.

I'd try bedding the brakes first. YMMV

today clean up the Z I have a SCCA Track Night on Wednesday at AMP
also, its time to work on cleaning up the apartment -- what fun..

But its saturday everyone have a fun day and then some :ughdance:

also enjoying the sunrise with my first cup of coffee :tiphat:

:hello:

Mine got a bath: Reset and some reload spray by Car pro...

Car was garaged for 7 years, now parked outside the past year.

The ceramic coating from carpro has truly been a wonderful investment of time/effort.

Question: has anyone here done just a very basic engine clean on their 370z? I've never cleaned mine since I bought new, but I think it's time to spray it down. I've only used simple green in the past. Any suggestions? Any areas to avoid?


In Arches National Park (I've done about 120+ trips to Arches in the past 14 months...) - That's the "Three gossips" and "Sheeprock" in the backround

I bought 2 of these garden sprayers. One has Simple Green in it and the other has water. They work great because you can control the spray and keep the Simple Green and water away from area's you don't want/need it

Sunday a day of rest, maybe, but still have some chores to do...
Enjoy the day, and have some fun... :ughdance:

:hello: :tiphat:

:hello:

Think I'll take the day off just for the hell of it. :tup: I work too hard at doing nothing...........I wish.......:icon14:

I spray down some cleaner like carpro multix, then cover that with a blast from the foam cannon.
Then scrub with my wheel brushes.
Finish the Koch Chemie motorplast
Haven't had a problem yet.

:hello:

ssup dudes.

Good Monday Morning All. 94* for a high today with a 70% chance of rain. :bowdown: Back after a week in Vegas with the Mrs. & close friends. Had a Great Time. :happydance: Now its time to get back in the gym and sweet it out. Hope you all have a Great Monday. Stay Safe, Stay Positive & Yes, Wash your damn Hands. :tup:

Good morning everyone!:tiphat:

Back at work on a Monday, have to pay for these track days somehow...
Enjoy your day and have some fun.. :happydance:

:hello:

The vibration is present under throttle and cruising. Braking makes it go away once the speed decreases below 50 mph.

I generally don't have a problem with brake pad deposits. I brake hard all the time and I don't stand on them at rest.

Happy Monday, everyone :hello:

We have been getting much needed rain the last week or so. Continuing for the next week, too :tup:

Good Tuesday Morning All. 91* for a high today with 60* chance of rain. Already 3" of rain here at the house since last Friday with more on the way. Time to get Rocking guys. :happydance: So hope you all have a Good One today. Stay Safe, Stay Positive and Try To Stay Dry Out There. :tup:

Mornin' folks!:hello:

:ughdance:
good afternoon all, where did the morning go ??????
getting ready to finish work and go to Atlanta...
Nice easy drive in the Z...

:hello:

strange issue going on there, sounds like.

man its been hot hot hot down here.:icon17: its gotta be pretty toasty out there too.

Good evening Gentlemen…

I did a track day at Sebring on Saturday and it was great…. Lots of fun and lots of learning..

I have a question for others that have done this though…. My tires have hot rubber from the track stuck to them. Should I try to scrape off these heavy deposits or will it wear off eventually? What is the best way to get this off?

It is probably affecting the tire balance

The balls of rubber will come off with some street driving. It's not a big deal. To get the rubber to stick like that. You had the tires hot. :driving: So........when is your next trackday? Glad you had fun. :tup:

:eek::eek::eek::eek:

yikes!

How'd the supra do on the track?

Yeah I want to get the inside of the hood; it's never been touched so..kinda lookin ghetto with all the dust living in the SW the past 2.5 years;

Any area under the hood I should avoid? I was going to do it on a cool morning and then let it sit for a day (it's 90+ degrees so it won't take long to dry out)

If anyone here plans to drive through Monument Valley and there's a dust storm - just beware - your Z1 intakes will get completely taken out/covered in thick layers, so plan on doing a cleaning. The dust in that area is a more of a fine powder that gets into every f'n thing... even the longtubes in the bumper...

Other than the engine cleaning: I got a Sylvania headlight cleaning kit (has sandpaper; clear coat; etc) - that's next once we have cooler weather.. any tips? I'm regretting not having the headlights ppf'd from day one...

Haven’t got a plan yet. They have a hotel at Sebring in turn 7, so Debbie also watched the whole day unfold from the balcony. A couple of guys crashed in front of her. She was amazed everyone was running so hard.

Smooth as glass. Precise and predictable. 140 felt like 40, very nice.

Glad I didn’t let the opportunity go by. There were 7 Supras there, along with various Mustangs, Camaros, Vettes, Porsches and also a 350Z

About 20 cars in each of my four 30 minute track times

man that supra looks soooo nice brother.. nice job with what you've done... keep up the good work.:tup::tup:

Good Wednesday Morning All. 93* for a high with just a 30% chance of rain. Just a few more days to go until the weekend. So time to get this day Rolling. :happydance: Hope you all have a good one. Stay Safe, Stay Positive and Keep Moving Forward!! :tup:
