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

JARblue · 06-04-2018, 11:34 AM

In six years and 100K miles of daily driving I've changed my cabin air filter three times. This includes regular visits to construction sites, gravel back roads and park dirt roads. Like someone else mentioned, mine looked new upon removal compared to those

he just forgot to mention he also de-linted his belly button

Finally hit 1,000 miles on my baby. Gonna open her up on the way home today!

Tchristie24 · 06-07-2018, 04:58 PM

I pulled my steering wheel lock fuse today. I am applying to dental school soon so the Z was my first patient lol. My buddy asked me what I was doing and my response was “pulling a rotten tooth!”

VileKnight · 06-08-2018, 08:21 AM

Finally opened her up on the road last night after work, and I was not disappointed. Couldn't go too nuts or anything, but it was enough to turn a few heads.

Restored headlights with Armor All restore wipes. They worked like a champ and headlights look like new. Process took about 30 minutes to do both.

Attempted to clay front bumper to remove bugs left from previous owner. After an hour of work it did minimal improvement. Will have body shop go at it best they can and let it go, Elsa.

Bought some Continental all seasons to replace my P-Zeros (which were beyond smoked). Might pop them on this weekend if I get tired of fly-fishing, but that's extremely unlikely to happen.

HEK · 06-08-2018, 01:45 PM

changed the cabin filter and for those of you who really do things in real time, it's a PITA as removing the glove compartment look easy until you get to the last screw and drop it on the back of the pocket which now you will need to remove it again, so and FYI, when putting back the glove compartment there is the screw that sits way in back, get that one one first it will save you time and aggravation

... lol I woild like tp do a Youtube video as is no editing and hear all my swears but I would not get a single subscriber

yes, sir, the problem is the screws and how when you don't line them up correctly fall and you don't see it on a youtube video, IMO it's an edit that they should have left it to prove that it's not as simple

was just curious. i didnt really have any issues when i did mine.

I plan on doing another cleaning of the throttle-bodies, upper and lower manifold and replacing the gaskets for said parts. I already drained my catch-cans and changed the oil last weekend.

that is if i wake up early enough so it's not hot outside.

“Installed” recently purchased (new to me) Nismo mats and the cargo cover.

Cargo cover is a great accessory and I wish it was a standard feature/accessory and I wish it came standard with the vehicle.
