What did you do with your Z today

kenchan · 10-30-2011, 05:45 PM

i use a product called Griot's PaintPrep. i dont use dawn or any dish soap.

in my case after washing the car (or QD), i mist the panel with water, then spray paintprep, followed by another mist of water and wipe off with a soft MF towel. it completely removes any sealants or wax. i do that panel by panel as i polish or wax/seal the paint.

Ooh, bigdog, sounds great man!

You haven't taken any sound clips by chance have you? You're just running the CBE right now, right? I'm interested in hearing some in-cabin and drive by clips under normal driving conditions. I ask this because everyone else takes clips where they scream by at 4-5k rpm. I've heard that a bunch already and want to know how it sounds in normal conditions.

Keep up the good work.

Ps. Also curious how well you do with the Swifts now that you've got the low hanging cans of the FI. that's such a sick setup!

Here's a video of my setup in normal driving conditions with a few WOT pulls here and there. This is the FI 12" resonated cat-back with Berk HFCs.

Bridjit curb ramps went in today. I thought I would get away with 2 sections and it will likely work width-wise but tomorrow I am going to order the center section as well for 12 feet total to provide a bigger area to aim my entry andexit. The ramps work great. Swifts next Saturday.

I use the same ramps. Even being dropped on Swifts, entry and exit are not a problem though the black trim pieces will rub on the rubber. One thing I can't do now though is back in the driveway due to the angle I have to take after being dropped.

You could always pull a 10 point turn if your driveway is narrow

Just to get that "backed in" appeal

mr.onzedge : is it planted to the ground somehow? I can see some trouble makers messing with them.
