What did you do with your Z today

kenchan · 07-09-2011, 10:26 AM

G2Z-thats alota work for bringing back to normal but

I too fixed my bad tap on the rear view camera last weekend. All the work just to bring it back to where it was. Hahaha.

The camera worked fine this am.

dropped off my older kid to private school and motored afterwards. Was a great drive.

my kid loved the Z too, especially the sound and watching me shift. Was his first time riding shotgun ever! Booster seat worked well...not a perfect fit as the Z's seat has more of a bucket shape, but was solidly planted so no issue.

They ride amazing. Cant wait to get into some twisties! Even during a hard 1-2 shift you can notice how the rear hunkers down and bites better. Just did a quick lil run on highway for the most part. Full potential yet to be seen

TypeOne... looks great! HDR photos too, am I right?

I'm going to have to check out that FK. What can you tell me about the application of the product? Is it ok on rubber and plastic if it gets on there? Have you used it on glass perhaps?

LOL... sorry man, detailing is what I do

FK is ok for everything. If it gets on glass or anything else, just wipe off. I'd still use a dedicated glass cleaner if it's really dirty. FK rocks because it's ultra slick, doesn't streak, leaves a great wet look, smells great, and leaves great protection. I buy it by the gallon!

Yeah a lot of work for the paint, but you know me... it must look perfect.

What happened with your camera?

Thanks dude!

Umm, it's looks a little HDR-ish, but it isn't true HDR.

Don't laugh when I tell you this, but I actually took all of those pics with my iPhone and edited them. I have a Nikon D60 but it's just so much faster to point and shoot them with my phone.

I have a buddy that shoots for a magazine going to take some good pics in a couple of months when my car is more complete. I'm sure I'll whore them out too.

lol

It was intermitteny scrolling uncontrollably. I thought the module died but it was just faulty power supply wire tap. Everything is cool now...

Waiting for the wife to wake up to see if she's well enough for me to take out the Z for 2 hrs...

Thanks, yah she's in a lot of pain. Still can't sit upright even; after I made breakfast for everybody went out for a quick spin in my Z.

other then the f-king redneck that threw out an empty fountain drink cup out his window (mirage or lancer or watever that pos was) at 55mph in front of me which I dodged

, everything was super smooth. Another reason why I keep a good 3sec distance in front of me. To dodge lancer redneck cups.

That would have annoyed the p*ss out of me too. Imagine if that car in front of you swerved to the gravel side of the road. That's rock chip city. Do you have clear bra on yours, Ken?

Yah, that would suck if he did that. No clearbra on mine. Just the ones I installed along near the bottoms of the rockers. I am finding quite a bit of hits down there especially with the tad more aggressive wheel offsets.
