Still havent got my sways installed Ill def be sure to do it in the spring before ZDAYZ though. Let us know how it all works out, Im sure you will

Im compiling my winter purchases for my Z. So far Im def gonna be ordering up front/rear slotted rotors, pads(not sure exactally what yet) SS brake lines and all fluids. Also ordering up the Aero Jacket Type III spoiler, seen here



I also plan on getting the GTR start/stop button and rear fog light. I would LOVE the Square Craft side mirrors Kenchan has but I cant justify close to $700, if not more, for side mirrors. Eventhough they look absolutly amazing Ken Those are the things I def plan on getting. Im paying off my house next week so now I have plenty of $$$ to dump into my Z

If there was a similar wing for my Z, I would have bought it instead of my NISMO.

Happy Friday everyone! I will be working from home tomorrow for a half-day and then spending the afternoon washing the Z getting ready for our big meet on Saturday!

That wing looks like the "duck tail" that came on the '74 Porsche Carrera - understated but aggressive. Lovin' it!

Crap, and I thought I was finished with the exterior mods. I did buy my Nismo rims and tires today, so I guess this post can still qualify for what I did with my Z today.

I'm having them shipped to a local wheel shop where I'm having them painted the 2008 Infiniti color Diamond Graphite (WV2) with a satin clear coat. Should have them on the car by mid-January.

Maybe my CF interior parts will finally arrive by then; they were ordered in mid-October.

I took my Redline oil along with the filter, filter mag, and magnetic drain plug to a local oil change shop and had them change my oil for $20!!! Only reason I didn't do it myself is because I haven't purchased ramps yet and I'm still trying to figure out which ones to buy. I'm assuming no matter which I go with I'll still have to add some steps (wood blocks) because my lip sticks out pretty far.

Just hit 33k miles today. Bought it with 29k.

And I just put my new floor and trunk mats in which look great. My girl just got them for me for Christmas. I haven't put the drivers side may in yet because for some reason the Z store shipped me a Nismo logo mat which makes no sense because on the page it shows both mats with the Z logo so I'll have to have that one exchanged.

The Larger Z emblem makes all the difference. The nicer looking texture and feel doesn't hurt either. I'll be sure to post comparison pics soon but the little Z on the original mat is like 3" by 3" and these are I'd say off the top of my head 10" by 10" or something
