Nissan 370Z Forum - What did you do with your Z today

I fixed my massive boost leak causing my limp mode (intake pipe came out of the coupler), put the SSRs back on the rear, QDed, and drove down to the beach. Oh yeah...drove to my parent's for dinner and did a 3rd gear pull, aka spin the tires at a 60mph roll. The car is loving this low 70s temperatures tonight!

I really need to proofread my posts.
It's like when you're about to say something and something in the back of your head says change it up. You're about send someone off with a "take care" and halfway through something tells you to say "good luck" and you end up with "take luck".
I was somewhere between "reminding" and "informing".

Well it was Saturday...

Installed clutch helper spring finally. BTW, post install I'm thinking this is a bogus clutch upgrade. Looks to me like that spring is there to keep it from banging for people who let the clutch slip off thier feet.

Installed 1" sound dampening foam on the cargo area floor.

Washed and waxed with McGuires Ultimate.

Drove the truck in today because it's supposed to rain:rofl2:

B&W-i dont think it's bogus but i also dont think that is the root cause of the Z being harder to engage smoothly. it's the latency on the throttle input. i dont foresee changing that spring on my car as ive gotten use to how the car responds, but do plan to flash the ECU some day. :)

That's weird but I actually feel that engagement is much smoother after the spring upgrade. For me it was the best upgrade for $15.

Spring made a huge difference for me as well. Throttle funkiness was still there, but you can drive past that.

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.
