What did you do with your Z today

ZeeingAround · 09-25-2011, 08:17 PM

Put 250 miles on the car this weekend. This will probably be the last long drive this year before the cover goes on. Played 48 holes in Northern michigan. the trees are just starting to turn, and is one of the most beautiful scenes to take in.
The clubs barely fit in the back of the car.

Took a cruise with the local VQ club, twisties, dips and nice roads. Great way to spend a few hours, about 20 cars. Pics soon

Night before, DIY Nismo cover and Injen intakes installed

Should have sanded the cover more, its rough, rushed it too much, so will need a re-do, but looks good from far lol

Looking good Mr. Kenchan! Love that INGs front lip

Good luck for them selling that Z, the last Z they sold took 400 days and that is no lie. I was told by the salesman who was the only person who was cool with me. Anyways this is the car I was SUPPOSED to get. UGHH its so pretty, but I will not give that dealer a penny after that stunt.

Sorry to hear that. Time to find another dealer.

Quick question guys. Im gonna start a few projects to get ready for ZDAYZ. Good excuse for more mods right? I have 3 things in mind but only have the cash to commit to two before she goes away for the winter. Choice numero uno, front & rear sways. Numero dos, cross drilled rotors w/ upgraded pads & brake lines. Numero tres, oil cooler. I fig I should def do the oil cooler although Id RATHER get choice 1 &2. Thoughts?? Also thoughts/opinions on oil catch cans. Worth it?

Lake I would call Nissan, let them know and ask for another dealer. I would also contact the dealership you where at and ask for the owner or senior manager to call you. It is possible that things are going on at the dealship that they don't know about. I would still not do buisness with them.

Fire · 09-26-2011, 08:47 AM

Alchemy my recomendations would be based on your car. What is your car? sport/touring, base, sport? If you have the sport/touring I would do the cooler and sways. If you have base brakes I would go with the brake upgrade. All three mods would help. Good luck

Sway bars for sure. Oil cooler is not needed for the dragon.

I'd choose 2 & 3.

What do you want to achieve with your mods at ZDAYZ?
If you need show points, the cross-drilled rotors are great for that. If you're going to be competing in some driving events, the swaybars and oil cooler are the way to go.

Red__Zed · 09-26-2011, 09:45 AM

Eibach and stillen are tops for street use.

My personal take on the cooler is wait as long as you can, so if something goes wrong, there's less for Nissan to point at.
