What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Ian B · 07-02-2019, 03:17 PM

gave her bubble bath today at car wash. She smells soooo nice now.

Contacted THMotorsports. Apparently "They [Seibon TS hood] are available" is secret code for "they will be available once the manufacturer makes them." Placed the order six days ago, was told it would arrive in five business days, and the freight service would call me when they were in the area. Now I was told today that the hood will hopefully ship tomorrow.

I wouldn't be annoyed if it wasn't for the fact that I scheduled work from home every day this week so I'd be able to accept delivery and have been glued to my phone awaiting the call.

Ahh that sucks. I think I got my VIS hood thru them, and they were pretty forward with the delivery times and updates. That was a couple of years ago though.

Ordering body parts always seems to be tedious for me, except for the wing.

Update 3: This seems ok right?!

The clutch side has some debris and clearly there markings showing the CSC wasn't adjusted after the master install.

Ordered an Action Stage 3 Clutch and new Flywheel to go with it. Labor is still going to be cheaper than what Nissan quoted for just the CSC (on top of the fact that the guys at WR said that Nissan installed the ZSpeed CMAK wrong on another customer's car).
