What did you do with your Z today II

Nick911sc · 03-02-2012, 11:59 AM

You too, hopefully it will fly by since I've been out of the office all morning lol

Back guys still no more info. This crap is really irritating me.

Good Afternoon Z fellows!!! Have a Great Friday, No Matter you have to Work or Not Tomorrow!!

Sunny and +7c in Toronto, drive my Z to work today!! Yeah!!!

Was driving happily on my way crusing 130km/h and all the sudden I felt the shift-knob became loose.....

The 3 set-screws that hold the shift-knob in place got loosen.....

Anyway, just went to the car and get it tighten and found out something really nice!!!

If you guys had read my post about installing the shift knob you might remember I did a trick to the plastic-ring that attach to the shift-boot, and I just found out that plastic ring can snap onto the tread of the MOMO shift-knob!!

So, the shift-boot is now directly attached to the shift-knob!

Here is a pic, looks much better now!!

Nick911sc · 03-02-2012, 12:12 PM

That's pretty cool! Looks like a perfect fit!

Coworker shows up today in a blacked out mustang. Yeah, me and him goin be getting on it on the beltway.

Also, of course I talk a lil smack today about driving in the winter and it starts to blizzard at lunch. So imme have to leave my car at work overnight in the underground. Guess I had that one commin.

hi mr. alcheng-

im jelly you got to drive your Z today.

so you like the new intake too? this was the first time you actually took it up to speed? or did you do test drives without telling us?

fire- is that because GM doesn't want your business??

wtf~

Nick911sc · 03-02-2012, 01:33 PM

Grueling phone conversation with a little Italian lady that insisted that I speak Italian since my father does lol. I can get by but I really need to brush up on it lol

Being trilingual is difficult lol

Mr.kenchan, yes, this is the first time I stretch the Z since the intake and the removal of the clutch-sping!!

The sucking sound is more obvious than the 'test drive' last week between 3k-5k rpm and it pulls smoothly

Worth the $$$, LOL

Mr.Fire, Seems the ZL1 is fast, but the production is slow...Don't worry, people pays $250k for a Ferrari and have to wait for 12 months, compare to them, GM is doing a VERY VERY good job
