I just spent about an hour trying to get my carbon fangs off lol.

...after struggling for 35 minutes...finally decided to suck it up and go upstairs for the hairdryer...soften the 3m tape...came off in 5 minutes (should have done that right away)...spent about 20 minutes peeling all the tape off

I think I used WAYY too much lol, it was going no where

It never fit right, so going to try and trim some off and see how it fits..

outside of that, did some groceries in the Z and that was it...was raining...never as much fun driving the Z in rain :(

Off topic: What's Irish, green, and sits out in the back yard? Patty O'Furniture.

Be safe today and tonight, everyone.

Happy Saturday and St. Patty's Day. :tiphat:

No self respecting Canadian drinks Molson anything. We use it to flush out Americans, they are the only ones that drink it here. lol

1st report on the new Pilot Super Sports
 
Took a nice road trip today. Warm, clean, clear roads. Varied road types etc. These tires have amazing grip and are a touch quieter than the OEM Bridgestone's. If you are debating a tire change do give the Michelin's a look. Certainly not an inexpensive choice.
Superb grip and longer tread life is a nice offset to the cost over some other very good tires(Conti DW etc).

You know whats funny? There are far better beer selections when it comes to fine beer down in the states. I know because I have lived in both areas. Canadians like to believe their beer is 'stronger' or 'better' but in reality it is not. Entertains me though when I get lectured by a canadian on how strong canadian beer is.

Yep -- you are right on the money with your comments.

Took a nice drive down the palisades parkway to nj. Got gas and a car wash after playing some tango with a friend. Its gorgeous outside time for thai food and ice cream. :D

Awwwwww damn! Any damage to your ride?

happytheman 03-17-2012 01:45 PM

Why oh why doesn't Michelin make the Pilot Super Sport in 285/35 19? :mad: :shakes head:

I'm thinking a 255/40 and 285/35 would look PERFECT on my stock Sport Rays. :shakes head:

I don't know what to do... I want to go a little wider, but still stay within recommended parameters. I know that I could put a 295/30 or a 305/30 on the stock wheel, but it might not look right.

Canadian beer is strong?? Canadian said that?? mmm.... maybe he only has Canadian beer in his whole life... LOL

Euro beer are good, in Germany, their beer is 25% alcohol, no lie because a German customer told me that, even local beer store in here we can get beer from Europe has 13% alcohol...

That's what I'm saying. We don't drink Canadian beer (unless you're under 25, the kids just don't know any better), it's imports or micro brews for me.

We should do a the370z.com BBQ / beer tasting weekend. Our house is always open to fellow 370z'ers, good times! :tup:

mick 03-17-2012 03:02 PM

i would usually drive my Z on the weekends to charge up the battery but it's wet outside, so I am going to let it sit in the garage until the next weekend :)

Fire 03-17-2012 03:14 PM

Hey Gale texting from my phone driving North. What is your address so I can put it into my TomTom. Almost to Buffalo so will be at your house in a few. LOL J/K bro but would be nice to get together some weekend. Going to get a few MIkes Hard Lemonaid and color them green :ugh2: Will do a bit of cruising in a few minutes.
