Rain getting settled in, so don’t look like much going on next couple days-retune scheduled for Saturday.
This rain could be heading towards the Left Coast & help with the fires.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...854edd25c7.jpg

Not much fun driving home from work today in Atlanta. Almost didn't make it up one of the Hills. This is my first rear wheel drive car, won't be trying this again.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...d98bfd4378.jpg

Thanks lpcalhoun, I thought it turned out well for a crappy old iPhone standing in traffic. Haha!!

Nice gains on the tune, I need to stop procrastinating and travel out to Atlanta and have mine tuned.

So today was my first run in snow/slush with the 370z. This was also first eval for the Michelins. I think they did pretty well. Gotta keep the power down or it is easy to slip in first. Still kept the VDC off...

Later will be the real run north of the Mason-Dixon.

Rare indeed. Highest snowfall in Jackson since 1982. Nice pic!

It was pretty impressive for 90 miles from the gulf. I’d say we’ve had around 6 inches so far and still falling in Columbia. Thanks for the compliment!

1/2” in between Charlotte and Asheville NC

I left at a good time to go on my cruise.

Just rain, rain, rain for me. None of that white stuff.

Sunny and warm where I'm at. Mid 60s yesterday! Driving like a madman. I love my Z. :tup:
Turn of the day, left turn after getting off the highway and hitting the light perfect. Warm street and no traffic anywhere when I was coming through.
Nice hump on the road and off camber to finish up the corner. Nice and technical.

killrain 12-10-2017 01:56 PM

Washed the Z. First time using Adams detail spray to help with with drying while also using Adams super plush towel. The spray did help with drying, but the towel started streaking a little bit pst halfway. Also cleaned and dressed the wheel well area.

Scored a set of Amuse bumpers on Craigslist for less than $200... One needs repair but they've already been fitted! Going to pick them up next weekend.

Got some small Christmas presents for the Lady.
The sticker was long overdue. It's message is even stronger as another day with a terror attack goes by.
And the JDM like license plate can cover the huge, ugly holes underneath when she is not wearing the regular plate. Will be handy on the track too.

sp911 12-11-2017 02:15 PM

filled the tank so it's heavier for some possible snow tomorrow am.

Broke in the new shoes...my review of the PSS 4S...Excellent in the twisties!

Another gorgeous day in the Angeles Forrest, above LA. You could all the way to the Pacific!

Jayhovah 12-12-2017 11:19 PM

Cleaned/lubed my BOV's... it was long overdue! FI kids CLEAN YOUR BLOW OFF VALVES.

Mine were starting to sound "sticky"... One wasn't moving very freely and the other was completely stuck. I did not realize these required maintenance (duh)... Turbosmart recommends service every 6 months - I waited 2 years!!

KngScottieV 12-13-2017 01:25 AM

Changed the oil, pulled the battery, and threw a fuel stabalizer in because I didn't drain the tank as much as I normally do for winter. Now she sits in my storage waiting for warmer weather.

Leingod 12-13-2017 07:00 AM

Idk. It's in storage somewhere. Thinking about smoking a rack of ribs, but with maraschino cherry juice as the liquid.

Spoiler 12-13-2017 07:02 AM

Fired mine up and drove it to town to get the annual state safety inspection done ($13.60) so I could then get my license plate tag renewed ($36.00) The State of NC also makes you pay your personal property taxes for the car ($237.49) at the same time or you can’t get your tag renewed.

While I was out I also bought a Snickers bar ($1.50)

I put a subwoofer in the "Z" last night and my wife heard me testing it out in the garage. She thinks it's childish. I think it's freakin awesome! :ughdance:

I don't care how old you get. Music is something you always enjoy.

I had my Z all of two days before I pulled out the factory stereo. My wife thought it was a waste of money, but I can't be expected to play Rush 2112 with no subwoofer.

I'll take a few later. She took the car to work. I work from home (most of the time)...

Kzonts 12-13-2017 10:13 AM

Here are a couple I have.

Kenwood head unit, Memphis Audio 2-ways in the doors and tweets in the dash. Rockford Fostgate 10" sealed subwoofer and MTX Thunder 75.4 amp... It's nothing extravagant, but much better than OEM!

Nice looking setup. I like the custom plate, and the plate frame too!

Appreciate the compliment. I got lucky and stumbled across the speaker enclosure super cheap. I don’t think the guy knew what he had. As for the license plate surround I’ve had if for years. It has always fit the bill for me.
