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

CRiZO · 02-16-2019, 06:53 PM

Started sound deadening the hatch before I install the woofer (and just to reduce road noise).

Noico 80 mil butyl mat

Partsam 315 mil closed cel PE foam on top

It is night and day.

Doors next.

Fun easter egg, not sure if anyone was aware of this:

The Z logo is embossed in the sheet metal in the back, on both sides, under the tail lights.

I did my first interior mod today. I just installed the holder that replaces the three fake buttons on the center console. Easy Peasy! Makes the Z storage console just a little more useful.

Cleaned the rear of the Z up. From drilling out the stock sub-frame bushings, which are filled with silicone. The rear got spatter with silicone and rubber. Made a nice mess.

Cleaned it and waxed all the way up to the front fenders. Stopped right there. Figure that I'm going to be cutting the fenders shortly for the vents.

The Cerwin Vega one. Still getting it dialed in, but I really like it.

When I first glance at this. I thought it said Cosworth Vega. And I'm going whattt? Haven't seen one of those in years.

I just looked into the SLC 300... they have 240hp. 6 second 0-60.

I'm not one that's all about the numbers, but those numbers are straight out of the 90s for a $50,000 car. Guess it makes sense they're not going to make them anymore.

So...

Last weekend I installed some new baffled catch cans to replace the crappy non-baffled ones I have. I also replaced my fender liners again (thanks Z1 for the good prices). While doing so, I found the source of the burning oil smell... it was the old catch cans. The drain plug must have been leaking a little bit, so I cleaned that up. I also put the track set of wheels on so i can hopefully sell the street set.

This weekend, I'll take the front end off to start some much needed work (but not finish because Anthem is out this weekend)

- take the splitter off and use it as a template for something more durable
- clean the air filters for the intakes
- replace my cooler core with a new one as I see some seepage towards the bottom of the core (away from the AN fittings)
- possibly install a PS cooler
- ship my headlights over to Houston Halos to get new projectors installed with some extra work while the lights are open
- service the cooling system

Who? Us? Nahhhhh...... We moderate ourselves fairly well. I even held back today splurging on some new Z parts and just purchased the Trakspec side hood vents instead.

Think we did a pretty good job moderating on this subject.

He got a mild beat down.
