What did you do with your Z today II

kenchan

Some of us are still in hibernation mode...

SPOHN

I've actually thought of this a couple of weeks ago. I'm all about that.

My Z sat in the garage today. There was snow on the ground. She may come out tomorrow, because the roads should be clear, and Wednesday's weather is supposed be sunny and near 60 degrees! We've had a mild winter here in the Northeast, and spring appears to be arriving early!

sounds good! im waiting for one nice rain storm before drying up...

but weather's not listening. while im happy it's going to be dry the next few days since i washed my G a few hours ago, i still want rain to wash off the salt before i pull out my Z. and the first rain forecasted is sunday... hope it comes on Friday instead...

Yeah, that's a good point! Damn. I did see white residue on the road. Might have to wait it out. But, man! Wednesday ... sunny and near 60! If we get no rain, skipping that day is gonna be tough.

yah, been driving my G through the white stuff and after the wash today i felt the paint for contaminants. not too bad, but definitely needs clay on the rear bumper for sure.

if you do decide to pull out your Z, put some slick spray wax on the rear bumper for sure. the vapor from the exhaust while the engine warms up the first 10-15mins will make the salt dust stick pretty bad.

i use Griot's SprayOn Wax as LSP. it's super stick especially over polymers. it will help wash off the salt without much contaminants sticking to the paint.

Kenman you use groit's really, LOL I think they are sponsoring you or your keeping them in business. I'm sure you ordered extra spicy butt explosion verde. And a gallon of sushi ice cream.

Thanks for the tip. I just bought a Porter Cable kit, and some clay plus spray. Can't wait for a good day to try out the equipment.

Not a whole lot going on lately. I will say though that my brother-in-law was pretty dissapointed that I didn't drive the Z over to Tampa when no went to see my sisters yesterday!

I find myself turning the tunes off and rolling the windows down nevery day now!

Spohn - I'm interested to hear how your track day goes buddy!

Ken-San - Well, at least I now know you're middle aged, live somewhere in the middle, like coffe ice cream & burritos, and used to live in California with a modded Civic!

Onzedge - Sorry you're On Z Edge over this Koni/Juke thing, and glad to hear that Colin is healing nicely!

Alcheng - I cann feel you're pent up frustrations all the way over here! I hope you get that tranny straightened out!

Edit: Zzappy is funny, and is going to hammer the fark outta his dealer badging!

What are these "windows" you talk about Happy? I don't think verts have them. Oh wait those are what posers in verts use when the top is down, right? Man I hate that LOL You see that all the time with BMR's why is that?

lol! that sounds discusting, fire. nono, im just a customer of griot's, i am happy with their products though.

yah, i too drive around with the window down to enjoy my exhaust note so i dont pay much attention to wat's playing on the HU until i come to a stop. lol another reason why i just swapped out the HU and left the speakers stock. it sounds decent.

yah, that car i had in LA was a prelude. i had a civic before the prelude. the prelude was heavily modded and even had naws (no joke). was one crazy canyon carving machine and pretty quick straightline on the juice.

yah, the PC and clay gets pretty addictive. go easy on the clay as some clays are too coarse for the Z's paint. meguiar's 'soft' clay was too coarse. i only use griot's mud (very soft clay). hahaha.

happytheman

Yeah, I don't understand that either...mebbe they don't want to muss their hair!
