^Beautiful G2Z, I give you props for always keeping your car very clean! Just got back home after being in South Carolina moving my little bro into University of South Carolina, first thing I did was go to the garage to check the Z haha.

Just wiped it down as usual with some QD and will drive over to pick up my dad's RX400h from the body shop tomorrow AM. In the afternoon, I will pick up a few gallons of 110 octane race gas. :)

Played 9 holes at the local course this morning and shot a 43 which isn't great but my personal best. managed to fit my clubs just fine in the Z and got several compliments at the clubhouse :tup:

Started on the DIY oil cooler install. Made the bracket today and will finish up the rest hopefully during the week.

I will touch base with the original group buy OP and see what the deal is. Don't want to step on anyone's toes. :tup:

Red, nice new meats. Are those Toyo Proxes T1R?

Took her for a drive tonight. Couldn't believe the number of folks craning their necks to see the Z. Was at a stop light, turning left... car on the right most lane has folks peering through their windows and pointing. Then further down the road, a family in their Jeep Wrangler looks and smiles... Driving the Z for in it of itself never gets old, then add to it the props folks give you? Priceless.

Also stopped and saw a great spot to take this pic.

Never gets old does it? :) Nice shot, btw! :tup:

Plotting my next mod. I'm going to get a power steering cooler and I want a gauge scan to monitor my OBD. Hoping Z1 will have both on sale at the Nationals. Hint hint.

kenchan 08-15-2011 09:20 AM

SPOHN- what do you think about those BT wireless OBD2 transmitters + app for your handheld? :) i was thinking about getting one just for kicks down the road.

FromG2Z 08-15-2011 10:13 AM

Nurb nice pics. Welcome to the forum.

Thanks Christian... yeah, I'm proudly OCD :) Detailing is in my veins... How does 110 gas affect the Z? It won't hurt it will it?

Thanks for the props guys, I appreciate it.



Today I drove Zena to the gym at 5:30, then onto work. I lowered the windows, felt the brisk 65 degree zero humidity air, and listened to my Invidia Gemini crescendo, as it sang its chorus with Nissan's VQ.... music to my ears. I then parked it at work, craning my neck to see her for those last few moments...all the way to the guard entrance. I love my Z. Nothing like starting out my day like that, ready to face yet another stress filled day and week :ugh2:

wow, sounds like a perfect motoring day. :tup: sounds refreshing. :)

the good about selling my other FitSport and using my G as my dd is that i get to enjoy driving each day... and it was nice out this am too. :p i did hear a skid/crash somewhere behind me. im happy it wasnt my car. i would get too pissed if one rear ended me cause we already have plenty of stupid in my commute.... the same folks we see at the DMV. :wtf2:

Alas, the 370 and the 240 are all clean and covered -- sitting at home. Onsite client work later today compelled me to take the wife's Echo while she is working from home.

Echo, yes. They were made between 2000 and 2004.

Koni Sport D, Custom Wheels (the brand escapes me at the moment), Goodrich G-Sport, Dynaflow CBE, Custom CAI.

FromG2Z 08-15-2011 10:49 AM

Onzedge, I forget that you are one of the lucky few who owns a 240 also. Please post more pics of that (and your 40th too) :D

Great job on the detailing. I would give you a rep but I have to spread it around first it says....lol.

I've read half and half reviews about them. Seems the app sometimes doesn't read in real time constantly. Plus with the gauge scan device you can check and erase SES light.
