Be careful, Nissan paint is known to wash off in a good down pour....

I've heard people complain about the paint on every car out there. Is there a single manufacturer that no one complains about? My Z doesn't look bad at all, but then again I almost never drive it, haha

Well, since it has been a bit quite on the forums lately I guess I'll tell a story. I was driving back from Lowe's on a 135th and just passed the golf course. I see in the middle of the road what looks to be like a clump of clothes or something. I couldn't change lanes because some one was close to me. I got closer and it turned out to be a turtle... Good news is my car is fine. Bad news is the casing(?) that holds the O2 sensors together broke and that's about it.

My friend that was riding with me said he saw it do a small flip and lose a limb.

Take a picture of what broke. I might have one laying around since all my factory O2 brackets and what not got removed.

I think I fixed it. It was just the connector plastic that broke. I just electrical taped it up real good and then zip tied it back into place. Which seems to be how it is on the other side. Thanks though.

edub370 06-11-2015 01:26 PM

sboden 06-12-2015 02:28 AM

Oh the swifts...that was a fun install for me....ugh

victorofhavoc 06-16-2015 08:15 AM
before i make a post in the for sale section, is anyone interested in a pwjdm shift knob? I've got both and would rather offer locally first. The egg shaped one has a busted collar, but the other one is fine (grey with black collar). 50$ takes both. They just don't fit me and I'm either going back to stock or getting a lathewerks knob next

sboden 06-18-2015 02:10 AM
For those who installed swift springs, did your alignment work using the stock parts?

My alignment was almost within the normal range. The fronts were good, the rears were just out of spec by a smidge. I could get some camber arms, but im going to go through one set of tires first to see how bad they wear. So far its not too bad.

Had the same experience on the 350Z, everything except the rear camber was within factory spec and it was REALLY close. If you run a search on this thread, Premal and I both posted our alignment results a couple of years(??) ago.

The toe is good which outta the two camber/toe i think toe being outta whack wears your tires more right? Anyways i was going to post this in the thread made for it, but would like the local community opinion as well.

Attached is the before and after. The before is just off since i had the car lowered a month or two ago and never got an alignment since i was waiting on my wheels.
Found it (http://www.the370z.com/attachments/m...-alignment.jpg)

sboden 06-19-2015 12:37 AM
I did some searching and many were saying rear camber arms and toe bolts. I didn't remember anyone locally having to do toe and was just double checking on local experiences. I'll probably just go ahead and purchase SPL camber arms and hold off on toe unless they can't get it very close to spec. My tires are too expensive to have them wear prematurely.

NW Missouri/St Joseph Cruise
 
I am hosting a cruise on Sunday, July 12 with the Heart of America Z car club. Lots of great driving on a mix of high-speed and technical roads and then eat in St Joe. We will meet at the QT in Platte City at 10am. The cruise will be "spirited" but safe with plentty of stops to regroup.
HAZCC is very active and a good group of people for all the local KC peeps. Here is the link to the event site on FB to get any updates.

You are welcome to come on the cruise this Sunday. We have about 15 cars going from gen 1 240s to all the different Nismos. We will meet at the QT in Platte City at 10am.

edub370 07-10-2015 07:42 AM

JacksonZ33 07-10-2015 02:45 PM
I just found out 10 mins ago that i'm setting up a booth at Street Car Takeover tomorrow, so if anyone is going to that as well, come keep me company.

edub370 07-14-2015 09:03 AM

side note, anyone wanna roll to fast fridays this week together. been a min since we've really shown the z presence there in numbers

JacksonZ33 07-14-2015 09:47 AM
So street car takeover was insane. Couldn't remember ever seeing a bigger turnout for a show in KC. wanna say there was 1k+ people

Think some of you have seen, but I'm throwing a huge open house at Aeromotive on Sat. Aug 1st (8-2) Will have KC from gas monkey, and Cutty from Street Outlaws here (likely to announce more). Help spread the word

And a definite yes from team Lueg for Fast Fridays this week.

JavaGRacer 07-14-2015 09:43 PM
Hello! My name is Javier. I've been on here but just never posted. I would love to meet up and meet some Z people! I don't know if anyone is informed of the G/Z meet at Shawnee Mission park this weekend? But I'll be up there and hope to meet some of you.

edub370 07-15-2015 10:27 AM
