I had a good time yesterday. NCCAR isnt the fastest or most technical track, but it is a good beginner track. Previous to this the only track I've been on has been the tactical track at Academi, so it was good to help me learn lines and apexes.
We got 5 20 minute sessions, so an hour and 40 minutes of track time. And it cost less than my last speeding ticket, for the chance to run my Z as hard as I could:happydance: |
:tup:
|
Just moved out to Colorado Springs, drove the Z the whole way from Yorktown. Sorry I never got to meet anyone from the Hampton Roads area while I was there.

anyone installed a RJM v2 clutch pedal? I might need help in the next week or two... also, might go order a navtool to finish my backup cam/front camera install... let me know...
|
I'll drop by to help if you need it. From what I understand it's an (awkward) one man job. Awkward as in the position of your body while installing it.
|
I installed a v3.1 about a month ago. Make sure you have a blanket or extra pillow to use for your ribs.
|
ok cool... hopefully the seller contact me back today about the RJM. I'll need help with installing the Navtool (it's plug and play) and front camera.
|
Front camera?

Kai, let me know if you are interested with helping. I still have to stop by AutoZone to pick up the stuff this morning (opens at 0730). So, hopefully I can start at 0830-0900. I never heard back from the seller for the RJM clutch pedal. He didn't want to give his number out (even though I sent him my cell phone number) or use PayPal so I thought that it was kind of weird. I might buy the RJM V3.1 instead and not worry about it. |
No luck with the Navtool. I used a digital multimeter to check all of my connections. I think it is the unit because my RCA connection works without the Navtool with the e-brake on and not moving. Oh well maybe I can try again tomorrow.
|
Hey man. Just text me whenever you need help. I don't really get on this thing often. Pretty much only at work.
|
Got the car back. I'm down for most things...

And mine is OOC. :crying: Hopefully it wont be down for long. F'n CSC. :shakes head: |

I think my NavTool 3.0 unit is defective... everything is soldered but there are no video signals. I used a multimeter to check all of my connection and made sure it was the right wires (12v accessory, ground, etc.) the tech support told me to RMA it. when I put it in rear it automatically switch to video 2. I have a momentary switch that allows me to switch between video 1, 2, and navigation.
|
You sure they're not cold solders? Sometimes that could cause the conductivity of the solder to be screwed up. I'm not too knowledgeable with the Navtool stuff.
|
Just got a new clutch installed any one down to cruise need plenty of break in mileage. :driving:

Where is RT Tuning? |

Tidewater Z isn't able to do tuning that requires a dyno because they don't have one. IMO its a great place for maintenance, bolt-ons and performance parts that don't require dyno tuning but, I might be a little baised due to the head mechanic/owner being a friend. The only down side to his shop is they do not install costumer supplied parts as a general rule. Understandably that has rubbed some people the wrong way. He has been burned too many times by customer supplied parts. His prices have been very fair on parts. |

I'm in Tabb so Tidewater Z is just down the street from me. I have been curious as to whether they did good work. There has been a Z shop at that location since at least the early 80s, how long has your friend worked there? |
NavTool customer service is a joke. The same guy work customer service, sales, tech support, and online help. I spoke with him about four different times. The first time he told me it would take about 48hrs to receive a RMA email. I waited for a few days and nothing (called customer service). I called back and it is the same guy. He suggests another 24-48hrs and still nothing (called tech support). I called today and (selected a different sales) he said he sent it but he would resend it again. He told me to wait for a few hours... it's 2 hours and nothing in my spam box, inbox, etc. he can't check to see if they have the correct email in the system... if I call back and he give me the run around again I am going through paypal to get my money back... I should have went with the bypass harness instead.

I've been at his shop when a guy showed up a with a new part wanting it to be installed, this is back when he used to install customer provided parts. The part was not the correct version and the customer argued that it was. It came out that he got his info from a forum. In the end after wasting almost a hour of my friends time he left in a huff only to come back 2 months later to have his Z fixed because the incorrect part caused serious damage to his Z. This happens regularly. He got sick of dealing with forum mechanics, poor quality parts, etc. so he adopted the policy. He has plenty of business so the customers he losses due to the policy doesn't affect him that much. |
