Wait your doing a full 1200 mile break-in, yet you already put the exhaust on which will change how the car behaves by the ecu. So doesn't that technically negate bothering going through the rest of the break-in period? Im asking because i believe if your gonna follow the guidelines you should follow them, and visa-versa...

Just wondering what your view are on this. Not trying to bash just curious. Some people do things one way and others do it another.

ClemsonWill 10-16-2010 07:23 PM

I look at this period as a break-in for the motor internals specifically the piston rings. Putting the exhaust on will change the A/F slightly but that is more of a tuning thing and shouldn't affect the internals that much. I have not had the car of 4K rpm which causes more stress on the motor and internals.

ClemsonWill 10-16-2010 07:43 PM

Finally got my tires.

stay on target :)

ClemsonWill 10-21-2010 08:52 AM

I'm trying but life just seems to get in the way.

Taking them to get mounted today. As you can tell I'm very excited.

On a side note. Lizzy finally hit 1200 miles. I had to capture her first time over 4k rpm.

Jamaica 10-24-2010 06:48 PM

All Black looks looks good!

Suscribing for pics..and updates

ClemsonWill 10-24-2010 07:28 PM

I have H&R springs. I was kind of up in the air about putting them on. But now that I have these wheels on it's a must. So I will be putting them on when I have time. Who knows when that will be. Home renovations, work, and a pregnant wife seem to take up most of my time.

I'm also having trouble with my Ateq TPM Quickset. Anyone have experience with these? It doesn't seem to want to download the existing TPMS codes.

HKYStormFront 10-25-2010 06:51 AM

looks good but car's gonna be a beotch to take pictures of...

ClemsonWill 10-25-2010 03:43 PM

lol... Yeah, I guess that's the downside to having a black car. Any tips for me?

HKYStormFront 10-25-2010 04:39 PM

trade in for a PW model................................

you need some more miles on your car.

ClemsonWill 10-25-2010 06:46 PM

I have 1271 now! lol

RCZ 10-26-2010 10:25 AM

Looks awesome! Love the wheels. I know its hard in pictures because the details of black on black get lost, but I bet it looks amazing in real life. Congrats!

ClemsonWill 10-26-2010 02:25 PM

Thanks RCZ. I'm going to keep playing with the pictures to see if I can get more definition out of them.

CrownR426 10-26-2010 04:09 PM

Great choice on rims and tires!
Do you feel the grip?

fairladyZ34 10-26-2010 05:02 PM

I can definitely tell the difference. The tires are well worth the money. I can't wait for the next auto-x.

(i won't be there tho :( )

ClemsonWill 10-27-2010 03:40 PM

I didn't know CSCC confirmed it. Oh well, I can't make it either. I am hoping to come up for the NC State game. Maybe a sunday drive in the mountains if anyone is interested.

I'm planning on coming to the NC State game, since I'll already be in Spartanburg on Friday. A drive up Highway 28 past Walhalla sounds like so much fun, but my wife will be with me, and I doubt she'd agree...:shakes head:

HKYStormFront 10-28-2010 01:16 PM

lots of 370's coming out of the woodwork in charleston... lol

ClemsonWill 11-01-2010 12:27 PM

Ok, it's confirmed i'm heading up to Clemson for the weekend and I will be driving the Z. You guys want to get together for a drive either after the game (if i'm sober) or on Sunday morning?

HKYStormFront 11-01-2010 02:03 PM

yea i could possibly do sunday morning, i've got cars and coffee in charlotte saturday morning so i'll just have to play it by ear, i may need the sleep. work schedule FTL :shakes head:

Sick Z, big fan of the blacked out look. :tup:

ClemsonWill 11-02-2010 07:49 AM

Thanks Gootz. This car is something I have always wanted to do. Next stage will be the S/C and supporting mods.
