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

abm89 · 06-30-2021, 02:58 PM

Let's see, I need to pick up my test print for the IC-7 and play some Tetris trying to get the wiring and the OEM dash all hooked up cleanly. I'm looking into the Flex Fuel Kit from specialty Z so I can get my tuner to enable the feature on my Tune. The E85 here is probably super inconsistent, so having that will help the car run consistently well. I also had an idea for GT3R style ducting for my front bumper. Currently playing with the model and testing my crappy CAD skills.

But in reality, this is all on hold while I study for an upcoming AWS cert test.

Got the inside and outside of the Z cleaned today. After putting on 3,700 miles on in 11 days. From Brownsville Pa. To Grand Rapids Mi. To Rawlins Wy. To home.

Try looking for a distributor for Sunoco gas and racing fuel. Their Re85 is a consistent e85. The cost is surprising reasonable!

I had Fiamm trumpets in my NA Miata for that old school Italian flair. I kinda miss them, so when I finally get to installing an oil cooler, I'll probably grab myself a pair for my ZR and put them in while the front fascia is off.

I forgot to post this a few months back, but I'm proud of it. I used an OEM shifter boot to replace the 7AT plastic shift indicator plate. I also added the manual S-Mode button for future use as a stealthy in-cabin trunk release button (I just need to wire it).

More recently, I had the rear bumper fascia diffuser area wrapped in glossy black vinyl. Nissan should have done this from the beginning on all non-Nismo models.

The EVO-R emblems (front + rear) and debadge was done in June.

.

The boot looks even better with an M45 7AT shift knob as it's much smaller and plug and play.

Good idea about the S-button.

I did the same but use it for my front fog lights.

I'll have to look into that. It looks OK now, but it needs something else. That knob might do it. Thanks for the tip!
