so i put in an order for a portable casio musical keyboard for micro kenchan. :p he can use it to practice his do re mi's while dad's at work. his older brother can use it too ofcourse, but his brother doesnt' seem to care for music or cars. :rolleyes:

anyway, it's a cheapo keyboard that has a backlit LCD which displays notation (sheet music) and fingering teaching a beginner how to read/play....almost as if he's playing a game.

that's his xmas present from me. :icon17:

sounds good about the sway. :tup: does the roaster have a different sway bar vs the coupe? :confused: just wondering. santa has some big boxes to deliever to you this xmas. :D

Mr.kenchan, I hope you will get well from this very quickly... :tiphat:

I prolly depress for the next 4 months because of the Z-less cold&snowy weather... :shakes head::shakes head:

:crying:

Regarding the sway, the fitment is the same for coupe and roadster, I might want to look into the difference of the weight between the two then decide do I need a stiffer sway.

I basically drink anything, but as I said, depends on the place and occasion, if I am dining out causally, then a pint or two is good enough because I have to drive.

But if we are doing a house party.... we usually start off with beer as appetizer, then red or white (or we'll do red AND white).

Then finish the night with some hard liquor..... something like 57% Chinese wine, or non-Chinese... like XO.

We have some 25+ years Chinese wine at that rate (57+) in the basement.... about 15+ bottles....

So it all depends what I choose to drink... but I enjoy it... :tup::tup:

I used to be like that too, during the 2 yrs in boarding school we have nothing but pops.... it was crazy..... later on I just cut it out 99.99%. No sugar please....

Becareful on the Red-Bull those kind of stuffs, I've read numbers of articles about those drinks.... they are all about sugars, cos sugars is the main substance that can stimulates the nerve..

Aware.... ;)

thanks, mr.alcheng. :tup: sounds good on the swaybar. :) with adjustable endlinks one can use intermediate settings so the stillen should be very dial-in-able. :tup:

Nothing big but the tech called me back and wanted to clarify what he said on Friday. He did say it looked like the area looked like it had been sanded for some type of color correction to the paint BUT he still maintains that he doesn't see any indication that it was repainted. So I'm still waiting to hear from the regional director. But now I'm worried that they will decline it.

it's good that he's not changing his observation. :tup:


mr.alcheng- sorry to hear about the hibernation...it's just a fact of life where im at too unless i want to drive with snow tires. :ugh2: i know it's do-able but i just can't stand washing that caked on salt crap on my car finding corrosion and stains in the spring time. :icon14:

Ya I am in Cambridge for now, but moving to Woodstock area next Friday :happydance:

No Z for me due to work I put my car away 2 weeks earlier then normal on Oct 15th. I had no time to drive it and it was just sitting there so I put it into storage and prepped for the sale of the house when I had time. I normally wait until the end of October and have my insurance just do the switch on november 1st to make everything easy and transition smooth. Then come spring I have it setup to go back on the road May 1st but depending on road conditions and weather I call in a week or two early and put the Z back on the road:tup::driving:


Enjoy the weather we have for today and tomo it is supposed to be nice :driving::tiphat:

Are they trying to say you had paint correction done to it? Like wet sanding or something? Or are they saying the correction was done at the factory? If they are saying you did it the obviously --> deny deny deny, say you only wash the car no corrections done to it and only noticed it on XX/XX/XX date and give them your story..... hope all goes well for you :tup:

No, the tech seems to be on my side but he also says it looks like color correction of some sort was done. I don't know what's going to happen until I hear back from the local corporate man. :o



WHO DO I HAVE TO FLASH AROUND HERE TO GET A NEW HOOD?!

:ugh2:no point worrying...make sure to keep a log of all these conversations/meetings/details...dates. People you spoke to etc. it is important to have that to support your claim:tup:
