nice day and took the Z out for a spin, felt good again...
but tires kept breaking loose, time for tires have put it off for almost a year.
also since having the recaro's put in, the seat is a tad higher, being about 6' 3", have to bend the head a bit

took the Z out for a little drive, been some time, needed to get the battery charged up again, felt good driving it again, came back and cleaned it up... just looking at it reminds me, why I love this car...

just a comment, stop at my Nissan dealership to setup an appoint for 60 month maintenance. they had a 2017 GTR, which looks good with the new front end. They also had a 2017 Z Nismo, which was read, bunch of little updates that I did not remember, most of the switches are all blacked out, and the steering wheel had a red stripe so you know where center is. But it was an automatic, and look like the touring/tech package. Just to pricey for me at about 47000+. The item I really did like was the wheels, they did not look like the old Rays. Just did not like. Just my 2 cents

well did not make autocross, seems the battery decide enough was enough...
Took to advance auto, battery still good, left for a 3 hour charge...
now have to find out how to keep a battery charged when you do not drive the car a lot
nice problem to have (I think)

Update, well they charged the battery, but it was going bad, cranking power was down, so I bought a red optima battery, partly for the car sits so much....
but its done and running again

Just got the Nismo headlights that I order about 2 weeks ago, and now I understand why they were so expensive.... because it is a plug and replace unit, has all the bulbs and wires and everything else, just take off the old and put the new in

Also the shipping boxes were a lot bigger than I thought.
So when I decide to sell my old ones, will keep the boxes for they are the shipping containers nissan uses...

Where'd you order the lights from? I've been searching for a set and the cheapest I found was Courtesy Nissan @ $750/ea.

Cannot help you there, I went thru
JUAN VARGAS
FONTANA NISSAN
FONTANA, CA

Who has a thread on this, and no, they were 1525 shipped.

The only thing I can say, is that it has everything, take off the old and plug in the new.
didn't want to pay it either, but it was simpler for me vs other items.
