Smartass! :)

Wait a sec...cant tell if you're being facetious or not!

I was being facetious and a little bit of a smart-alec. Anytime anyone is in Sac, our door is always open (seriously).

So with my track days and hard driving it was time. Good thing was the drain plug didnt have much of any metal shaving on it so I'm happy there.

OSG fluid is 80w 250 and I highly suggest only using there oil. My LSD has alway been quit. The only time I've heard it pop or bind is after a very long day at the track and after a few hours of cooling down it never made a peep afterwards.

I just hit 30k and I am planning a full fluid flush come spring when I put it back on the road. Im totally scared of what my dif fluid is gonna look like considering its never been changed yet.:shakes head: Im gonna have to look into the OSG 80w 250 as per your recommendation.:tup:

OOOOH, nice. Def in for results:tup: Im looking into some slight body mods myself. Already decided on the Aero Jacket III spoiler, which you have if I remember correctly. Also thinking about the Evo R side blades. Maybe some sort of subtle front lip, although I scrape a lot as it is so idk how a lip would hold up.

:iagree:

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

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. :shakes head:

Yeah I have Aero III rear spoiler,all front lips will scrape sooner or later,before I bought the Shine auto stuff I bought a EVO front lip from the Z store and when I got it ,it didn't fit right and it was broke so I returned it and got the Shine which has a great fit for aftermarket.

It's pretty good I had to drill 2 additional holes b/c the Aero has 2 holes on the edges to keep them down flush,but the only problem is getting one I got mine from Rick @ vip Status (b/c my wheels where late)or you could get it from UAM which gets some of their stuff from Rick,another way to put it is you may want to find something else as in spoiler.

Been talking to UAM. They say they will be shiping them again in January I believe. As per our conversation it sounds like I can get a hold of one

Drove the Z to Valley of Fire state park today, then went to the Bellagio buffet to a few dozen king crab legs. Will post pics later in the week when I get home.
