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

im going to be timing myself tonight again doing the G using sprayon car wash. i need to be at least 30min start to finish... :mad: last time was 43min and that's 15min too long to be cleaning a car.

Water-less takes me about 30 minutes. I've always averaged around 45 minutes from the time I drag out the hose to the time I reel it back-up. Plus with water-less, no drips to re-dry from the mirrors and other crevices after pulling the car back in the garage.

That all being said, a true-uber cleaning requires a bucket of suds and a hose.

Have spent the last three weeks installing my stereo system, Kenwood DNX5160,
PG TI600.2, JL60.1, JL13 shallow sub, MB Quart QSM218, front stage only, the front
sounds awesome but I think I need a line driver for the sub, not much volume.

I picked up a good bit of vinyl. You'll have to wait and see what I do with it.

It's nothing weird or perverted is it? I have a couple of friends into vinyl and they do really odd stuff with it. :icon14:

Motored my Z this am. :p was a tad misty but car did not get too dirty. QD'ed the front of the car and cleaned the glass. Hope to motor her again tomorrow. :D

Did my first couple small mods to my 40th that I picked up a couple weeks ago.

1) Replaced the clutch helper spring with a softer spring. The engagement is noticably better.

2) Installed the GT-R start button. During the process I went ahead and painted the silver trim peice flat black. The fusion ultra flat camo paint is what I used and it happens to be a perfect color match to dash peice. It looks so much better than the "Target" circle within circle look.

Then I took it for a drive and finished off with a washing.

I will get pics up within a few days of the painted trim around the GT-R start button as I left my camera at the office.

All times are GMT -5. The time now is 03:45 PM.
