I agree the emblems are an eye sore... and cheapen the experience given they're also on the Versa, Altima...
I pulled and replaced them within weeks of buying my Z.

Watched idiots waiting in line for gas while I did burnouts and donuts in the nearby parking lot just to try to drive home the point that there isn't actually a gas shortage...

Yesterday my wife and I pulled up to one gas station with only one person in front us who finished as we pulled up. Now I just hope the State goes after the stations that were Price Gouging!!!!

I live in freaking NY and gas prices sky rocketed yet again because of the geniuses in TX freaking out about shortages. It's up over 38 cents in the past 5 days. Sickening.

Gonna get the ~Z~ off the jack stands today; as weather is starting to break.

Drove it the 775 miles the the dragon. I got 3 days to play around in the mountains before i have to head back home

It is just plain old fashion price gouging and it is not right! Greed rules even in time of tragedy.

I pulled a Checkmate ski boat with a 1990 240sx. Funny part was getting it out of the water. I would have folks standing at the top of the boat ramp shaking their head. My friend would sit on the front of the boat while I chugged up the ramp. Yes, it was a manual.

Washed the Nismo this weekend. I got all my updated polishing gear in from Buff Daddy. Waiting for the weather to cool off a bit before I attack it.

Walked past mine 3 times today in the garage. I waxed it before I had surgery.

I was attacked by Love Bugs on the way home. What a pain in the butt they are. Took 30min when I got home to clean them off with a microfiber towel.

I just blew 1200+ smackers on Gen 3 CAI and 34 row cooler from FI. Had a short canyon cruze in 107 heat last weekend and the temp was at 260 when I caught up to the first car. I was thinking WTF, that was fast. Figured I'd do the CAI while I have the bumper off for the Oil Cooler.

Kill 2 birds with one stone. My kind of thinking.

Thats a dangerous game. I originally bought a CAI and figured since I need to take my bumper off, might as well swap bumpers and get the Nismo bumper. Then soon after, if I'm getting the front, I may as well get the Nismo rear to match.
