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

FrankEtier · 02-23-2022, 09:03 AM

Looked at the weather and realized the Z is not moving from garage until Saturday at best.

Just installed OEM illuminated kick plates on my Nismo. I like them a lot. Not too flashy and love the aluminum. Pretty straight forward install but had to remove a few internal panels to pass wiring. The rest was plug and play using supplied t-harness.

I still have a new set in the box. I will get them installed one day. LOL

New AEM fuel pump arrived with a fresh o-ring for the assembly. Going to drop it off at WRR tomorrow as I really don't feel like messing with it. Once that's in we should be able to finish up the flex tune!

Been driving a crappy Mitsubishi Mirage G4 5spd lately. First got in the Z and was extremely surprised how unfamiliar it felt. About 1/4 miles and a few gear shifts later it feels like home

What was all that was done? Which pile of parts were able to get thrown on the Z?

Took the Z to its first track event. Had to be towed off track on the final session. I later found out it was fuel starvation that caused the issues. Fun day never the less.

Note: Dont mind the funky tow hook. I learned at track something was stuck in the tow hook screw preventing me to screw in my stock tow hook. Used a strap instead.

Not a planned visit to the shop. The Z has a new bumper, RH fender and wheel after an ill-advised attempt at off-roading.

Glad you have her back in your hands and fixed up!

Washed my car again today. I parked it on a side street to avoid it getting covered in flung up road slush. It got covered anyway.

Noticed the exhaust has NISMO lettering on the tips. Are the tips interchangeable? (car is a 2018 sport model)

I do too. I got them wrapped black to get rid of the silver and they've been sitting ever since. Maybe when I get my car back this time

FrankEtier · 02-26-2022, 06:40 PM

Not. A. Damn. Thing. With the Z today. Maybe weather will be better tomorrow.

Gave the Z a wash yesterday along with my pops and his 350Z. We then attended a Z meet in downtown Orlando at an ACE Cafe. Great turnout and plenty of Zs and GTRs to go around.

Nice to see such a mixed crowd of Z and Nissan enthusiasts.

Any more info on future meets? In Tampa but would drive out to Orlando for that.
