Good afternoon everyone!:tiphat::ugh2:

Another Friday in the books.

:hello:

We now have a good amount of 370z VQs in the 900whp and up range and they are staying together. Some of the older shops are still stuck in their ways. It is crazy how Admin Tuning of all people is leading the way on tuning with Ecutek. Never thought I would see that happen. Unreal.

That's amazing when you think about that. 900 horse from a VQ is amazing. Even more so when they don't grenade.

Did you ever get yours back together? I haven't been paying attention...

Yup, I have had it back since Sept. of 2023.

What's more fun, the Z or the Vette?

So.... last year my 2011 Kia Forte needed brakes. I'm pretty sure cause I heard metal on metal... LOL!

I take it to my local guy whose always done me good with oil changes, fluid flushes, tire rotations and such.

60,000 miles on it and he tells me grinding noise is because pads and rotors are shot (uh, yup) needs brake pads, rotors and calipers. I asked why calipers. He says they've been extended to far into the rotors and they're not sure they'll come back. I scratch my head and say, ok do it. $1100 for the fronts. Refused to hear anything about the backs as he tells me got plenty of pads on them.

Fast forward 13 months and about 13,000 miles. Ive got a high frequency shake in the steering wheel when brakes lightly applied, a full pulse at slow speed.

I'm thinking they gave me the shittiest rotors ever. I call them up. Told me 12 month warranty... but they'll see what they can do...

To be continued....

The Z. I can hide out and nobody is the wiser. The Vette just get's too much hate. People are horrible. That's why it sits in the garage a good bit. Been a while since it has been out of it. Year at least.
