With my Z in the shop I decided it was time to retire it as my DD, picked up a new 2015 Sentra to get me back and forth from work. Now I can keep the miles off my Z and be able to do some upgrades with no pressure to finish before work. :)

Got my car back, the fuel pump and sending unit went out too, so not a cheap fix.

Been about 3 weeks since I drove her and battery was dead :( Got her hooked up to a battery tender now so she'll always be ready to go.

She won't be resting for too long, just signed up for a double autoX event in 2 weeks. Wont have my new diff by then, but I should have it in a month or two :)

Did another AutoX event today, this is my second one and did a lot better, last one I was about 7 seconds off the low guys, this time I was about 3-4 seconds off :) I'm in M1 so I doubt I'll ever win, but I'm having a blast and as long as I improve I'm happy. Hopefully I'll have a new diff before the next event, I'm thinking quaife or wavetrac.

2nd place at AutoX today, not a points event so not as much competition, but I'll still take it :) I keep improving each event and getting closer to the top guys but I still have alot of work to do with the driver mod ;) I can't wait to get my diff installed l, I'm always getting sideways coming out of the turn arounds, so I know that will help.

Well apparently I need two stub axel flanges to install the wavetrac on an open diff 370z. Nowhere does it say this on vivid racing's website :( nowhere in Florida has them, I have to get them shipped from Arizona so I won't have it installed until Monday and I'm gonna miss AutoX tomorrow :(

Yeah I know, I was looking forward to testing the wavetrac out. Oh well, next event I can make is the middle of June, so I'll be able to test it out then. At least I'll be seeing two black lines instead of one when I take off from now on :)

Damn :( sorry brother. But you will love a real diff!

Got to finally test out the diff today at an autox event, felt really good, now I need to upgrade my tires, it was a hot one and my hancook v12s fell off pretty quick. Here's a few pics.

Got some autox in today. Saw a 370z for the first time coming in for the afternoon session as I was leaving, checked the results online and he beat me by half a second :( At least I know I'm driving the Z about the same others :)

I installed my oil cooler today, those AN fittings are a pain. Since the bumper was off I cleaned my air filters, re-greased my sway bar bushings And installed some SPL end links. I also installed my newly painted headlights, thanks to DatsunFTW for painting them. Car is all put together and ready for AutoX next weekend, hopefully I can give her a bath tomorrow. :)

Agave are you running any coilovers or your on stock suspensions?

xxAGAVExx 10-09-2016 05:27 PM

Swift springs with stock shocks, I'm happy with them for right now, but as I improve my skills I plan on upgrading to coilovers next year. I'm doing an Autocross school in a few weeks with my local club, looking forward to that :)

Adjusted the ride height yesterday to where I want and started to adjust the damper to where it feels solid. Drove it to work today, really loving these these things, I can't wait to test them out at autox and eventually the track :)
