Thanks!...Yup, 15mm all around...Just right for a good look without lowering. Gets rid of that "Sunken Wheel" look which I really hated..

yah that does look good. :tiphat: i might just do the rears for now. im not a fan of tramlining so want to leave the front as is. it's already tramlining from the sport package 19's on some uneven roads.


as for my z today...haven't seen it yet.

Austin 06-07-2010 11:40 AM

I brought my 2007 Enthusiast (boooooo ;) ) home for the first time Saturday. Picked it up about a mile from the Leavenworth federal/military prisions.

I am waiting to get the lien release so I can title the car before I drive it too much, but it was about a sixty miles drive to get it home. Way different than my wrangler.

MareImbrm 06-07-2010 11:56 AM

Drove a girl home from a friends engagement party last night...I will admit was driving 'spiritedly'...her reply once we got off the highway...."Sexy". Done.

CaptainSlow 06-07-2010 12:03 PM

I spent an hour trying to get some dust out from under the edge of my 3M. At the top of the front bumper along one section it's cut a little high so dust/dirt gets in there and even though no one else can see it I can. I ended up using some Goo Gone which did the trick. It didn't seem to affect the stickiness of the film as I was able to push it back down. Anyone else have suggestions? Little things like this bug me. On the plus side, while working in my garage someone came up my driveway and said "Sorry but I just have to take a look at this car."

vipor 06-07-2010 12:13 PM

Drove to work! :ugh2:

LunaZ 06-07-2010 02:02 PM

Went to the Nissan delaer where I purchased my car and got the proper locking lugnuts free of charge
Cancelled my order with Summit.
Had a beautiful drive around Lititz and Mt. Gretna.

fullmonty 06-07-2010 07:22 PM

Handed out free candy to children.

Endgame 06-07-2010 07:35 PM

Pretended I was driving it while flying in a plane to Tulsa, OK!

SophiaZ 06-07-2010 07:36 PM

Today I drive the Z to and from work and than gave him a nice cool bath :) Now letting him rest up for tomorrows trip BACK to work haha..he needs to be fed too. I keep telling him that on June 18th he's gonna have a new home with a heated garage and 7 car driveway..no more crowding from our F-150.....and after a wash..it won't get instantly dirty..since I currently park my car in a rocky/dirty alley behind my house :(

Horseface 06-07-2010 08:52 PM

Drove to Wholefoods to buy lentils and an apple pie.
Parked it.
Drove it home.
Parked it.
Drank a glass of Merlot as I made pate and baked bread.
Thought about washing the car.
Thought better of it.

kenchan 06-09-2010 07:38 PM

I actually did something today with my Z... Added 15mm Kics to the rears.

Waiting for my 5mm's for the fronts to come in...hopefully tomorrow. :p

red6spd 06-09-2010 10:02 PM

Kept it in the Garage cause it was raining :) and ordered Stillen's Intake.

Trips 06-09-2010 11:17 PM

Well, on the way to work, I had Rip one loose....
Its was so foul I thought I was going to pass out..

tbonesteak 06-10-2010 01:16 AM

LunaZ 06-10-2010 07:42 AM

Added K&N drop-in filters this morning.
Cobb Post-MAF tubes are en-route.
Fast Intentions arrives on the 15th.

My PA state registration card and sticker finally arrived so I could take that stupid window tag off of my car.

xiven 06-10-2010 08:26 AM

I think I'm getting too used to my car. Its shocking how I drive it cuz I know it can handle it. I just gotta remember not to drive like that when I'm not driving my car because most of the other cars I drive don't handle like my Z does.

LunaZ 06-10-2010 07:13 PM

Got rid of the egg yolks in my tail lights.
Installed some chrome turn signal bulbs.

May I never take the hatch apart again for a very long time!

PapoZalsa 06-10-2010 08:23 PM

Took it to work and tomorrow too. Caught some a$$holes students trying to lean on my car to take photos. I rang their a$$es!!!!

Liquid_G 06-10-2010 09:51 PM

Thought about finishing installing my S-tune rear valence pieces.. put on the JP lip and S-tune sideskirts over the past 2 days.. Looks good so far, but got roped into some BS conf call at work.. Plus it looks like there's some templates and drilling involved with the rear pieces that I'm not too crazy about.. I guess we'll see what tomorrow brings

Endgame 06-10-2010 10:50 PM

Drove to a client meeting and got crazy (as much as you can on a public road) with her on 24th street by the airport!!

Jamaica 06-10-2010 11:57 PM

Montez 06-11-2010 05:51 PM

Just drove it and had a F**kn flat at lunch......Had to change it in 97 deg heat and high humidity..ughh (no time to wait for AAA).

SophiaZ 06-11-2010 07:12 PM

Gave him a bath..and than took him to my new house for the home inspection :) Of course the landscapers were putting the sod in the front and with all the dirty flying around....had to get another bath

Hi-Step'n370Z 06-11-2010 07:17 PM

Came THIS CLOSE to being hit head on by some kid in a Chevy Blazer. I was almost stopped at a red light at a four way intersection. A kid in a Blazer playing stunt man was going about 50 mph through the intersection, and tried to drift the turn. The Blazer almost went up on two wheels, bounced down and over to the other side, and as it gained stability, headed straight for the front of my Z. I stopped abruptly and the kid managed to swerve to JUST missing me. If I had already been stopped at the light before he came through, I would have had air bag for lunch.

red6spd 06-11-2010 07:52 PM

She got her first bath and full wax job today. Took her for a quick spin and took her to about 5k and almost full throttle ops... she's only got 500 miles on the clock LOL.

sonic370 06-11-2010 08:08 PM

Got her detailed today looks great.Then had to deal with dealership over the gas cap.Check engine light keeps coming on and the engine is still there!
They can be so cheap won't order a 10.00 gas cap when we both know thats the problem. They won't you to bring it in and waste a whole day.
