What did you do with your Z today

Nitex · 07-30-2011, 05:35 PM

^^ yes, ty beach! Looks great. One thing im noticing was over-bright metering and exposure in most shots. Im going to try to find a filter before i move on to another full on DSLR. Its nice have such a small camera but price is right there for something like a T2i/T3i.

I do have control over this with PASM modes on the NEX 5.. I guess i just need to keep tweaking it.

Got mine from here. Seems easy enough. Will be applying same to the water temp gauge.

G2Z- nice picts!!!

Yup wind deflector From. First pic is the deflector(yes it's covered in fingerprints in th pic) and second pic shows where it is(it was taken before the sticker was put on). It's a vert thing

I'm not getting my windows done cause they are onlyup when the car isn't being driven or that very short time that it is in the rain.

Fire · 07-30-2011, 10:03 PM

aven't broke 3000 yet.

Today, i changed my oil for the first time since doing the turbo kit. I also removed my left rear add on and diffuser since the 3M tape was starting to not work. It took me 2 hours just to get the 3M tape off my diffuser

Tomorrow, I'll mount them. The tape is already laid on the pieces and the bumper has been prepped...just need to mount and let it sit in the sun for the day.

I tried getting an exhaust clip for you guys today, but cold start = alot of rasp

will be adding a resonator. Once it warms up though, no rasp and it's deep and just purs

Hmmm, its very possible that I broke 25,000 today. I know I was close. Gotta check tomorrow.

Had a nice little run up the river today. Great, tight sections with crests and dips, very fun

Will probably wash tomorrow and take her on another jaunt/photoshoot. Love my Z.

(see sig)

PS--they were a great combo for the Zcon track day recently.

Got the front windows tinted again after getting a ticket a few weeks back. I opted for a shade lighter than the rear windows although this pic is a tad hard to tell:

FromG2Z · 07-31-2011, 12:55 AM

Thanks for the props guys.

Fire, that wind deflector looks good. Is that oem?

98, thanks! Also that exhaust build of yours will be stellar. I need to hear that!

Waizz, I plan on re tinting mine as well....soon.

So what did I do today with Zena? Well, other than my busy morning with her, I took the wife downtown and enjoyed our drive immensely. We had sushi at the #1 rated restaurant on trip advisor. It was delish indeed. Then took her to see cowboys and aliens, fun movie. Both dinner and movie I lucked out and found a spot up front

Btw, am really loving that clear bra. Highway jaunts with bugs just come right off with some detail spray. No chips either. Single best mod......ever.

Fire · 07-31-2011, 01:08 AM

From the deflector is a factory unit. I did add the modded sticker.

I noticed that in the pic is the rear of my 2004 Mitsu Eclipse. The two bright orange circles are part of the tail lights. Still need to get the title notorized to title it.

SophiaZ · 07-31-2011, 03:01 AM
