Agreed! Also in the winter time it can be as high as 15.

That’s interesting. Seb was curious to see if I could get it down to E10 but it’s not looking like my usual station goes that low

Started oil change, forgot I was out of oil filters, will finish tomorrow. Also installed Z1 undershroud and a silicone license plate frame/pad. Bummer that the magnetic oil plug I bought off Amazon warehouse a while ago is wrong size. Oh well, I’ll be using Blackstone oil analysis for the last 3300 miles I put on this oil.

:owned:Washed it and it rained right after...as always

Ethanol content is slowly creeping down, so I'm now using the Z as my primary vehicle when possible. I also ordered a stack of miscellaneous parts to fix some broken or missing items (exhaust hangers, cat brace, battery cover, etc.)

I installed the Zspec strut bar titanium hardware (black). It looks really nice. I also installed the Lasfit LED retrofit for the headlights. combined with the STi lenses I have in the housings already, it's a huge difference in low beam performance. I'm glad I went with that considering I'm not a huge fan of the Morimoto design. Next on the list is a carbon engine cover and cooling plate, as well as a new Sparco 383 and works bell quick release (the latter two items are ordered)

Went offroading in the Z. Another trip to the body shop :icon17: :crying: :rolleyes:

Sudden maneuver, cold tires, bad input. Driver that caused it drove off so I don't really have any recourse except insurance.

Do you have a dash cam?!

JARblue 12-13-2021 01:35 PM

Finally got my Thinkware U100 dash cam installed and running this morning :ugh2:

Procrastination ftl

I sure as heck don't want to drive to Austin again. Holey crap at the idiots.

Leave plenty of space and expect them to cut you off like Verstappen.

Twice tonight and someone had the nerve to flash their lights at me to "hurry" up when merging onto another street. I let them know they were number 1. (Murray Walkerism)

I did receive my NISMO radiator cap today from Japan. Probably the easiest install compared to what I've done lately.

Must have been one of those 'escapees' from the Granola Bowl. :bowrofl:

Got tired of losing the toe setting so I swapped in a set of SPL mid-links. Went with 6” Swift springs in 11K. Did the traction arms while I was under there, too. :tup:

I've been driving the Z around, still getting rid of any ethanol left in the tank. If it doesn't go down after that, I might have a bad flex fuel sensor that needs swapping. Damn saddle tank.

Tomorrow I'll install the $300 worth of miscellaneous parts to get rid of rattles and replace broken or missing trim pieces. I needed a break as Monday and Tuesday were spent giving my WRX a massive suspension upgrade.
