You took it in the store? Talk about the express lane.

I had my 3rd set of front shocks installed, rear camber arms and toe bolts installed, had the car aligned, and washed mine on Saturday.

Thanks! I think it is a excellent mod, especially for those who change their own oil. Z1 had a group buy going on for them too. That's where I got mine.

zpirate- so did they make the oil filter/plug access opening bigger than original? i thought it was much smaller in the proto picts i saw somewhere. that looks good.

Kenchan, I'm not aware of there being more than one version of the ZSpeed 370Z undershroud. There are two versions for the 350Z though. Version 2 being the improved version.

i see. thanks for the info. the pict i saw had a much smaller service hole than the one you have so thought that was a big improvement.

now you wont need to remove like 16 screws just to access the filter and plug.

The trap door is more than adequate enough to change the filter and plug.

Why have you had a third set of shocks changed?

How well is it if you have an oil cooler kit installed? Being the theromstatic plate extendes out a little further.

I don't have an oil cooler installed so I cant really comment on that but I don't think it would be much of a problem especially with a strap wrench. Off the car I didn't think the trap door was large enough but once I installed it I could see it gave plenty of access and the door is completely removable.

lets see drove it around.

spend 110 euro on cleaning products.

started cleaning at 4:30 PM stopped now at 9:22 PM

washed, foam washed, clayed, waxed, cleaned rims and exhaust, leather cleaning products on the inside, used products to refresh all the plastic in the car.

only thing that I couldn't get done were the windows, used degreaser/windows cleaner products still leaving marks and stuff.
