What did you do with your Z today

Juruki · 10-03-2011, 01:54 PM

Got tired of the Plastidip wheels and removed it. My fingers still hurt from all the work, its not as easy to remove as i thought. The worst parts were the holes for the lugnuts and the inside of the barrels.

Today I enjoyed my Z's overall awesomeness

Raised my car up 1/4''. Now have to set up an alignment. Going for more camber for track use.

I raised it up myself. Going to have all that done when I get some time.

Not sure. It's the shop Mike uses. Mostly you tell them what purpose you use the car for and they set it up. Great shop to my understanding. But I'm really only looking for about 2.1 all around.

Also bought these yesterday. Got a super deal on them. These are Stillen. Front only. Going to wait till my other rotors wear before I use these. About to pick up some Carbotech XP 8's. I'm trying to stock on brake parts so I'm also ready to go at the track.

Decided to drown myself in carbon fiber. Received both my roll of Di-Noc and my Carid CF dash kit. Between the two of them, I hope to cover the center stack of nav, radio and HVAC controls using the dash kit for templates.

I also broke down and ordered the matte finish CF shifter ring, tach and door switch covers from A.J. at CarbonSignal. After looking at the Di-Noc, I realized there was no way I could ever do the shifter ring.

Besides my center stack project, I'll wrap my B pillars, rear valance, and hopefully have enough left to wrap some pieces on some other guy's cars.

Now it's off to Michael's to pick-up a dye pen to dye my interior stitching red.

It should be an interesting couple of weeks.

Drove to Saddle Brook, NJ to do a presentation and got talked into driving into the city for dinner because some colleagues from L.A., Dallas and London were in town.
A lowered Z does not like NYC's battlefield style pavement. I'm actually quite good at driving in the city, but in the Z I hated every minute of it. It's hard to move at the same pace as everyone else when you're busy tip-toeing around potholes and crawling over bumps that threaten to rip parts off the car.

Here's a quick and dirty shot with my point and shoot. No tripod, so it's a little blurry. I still think it came out pretty cool, though:
