Good afternoon everyone. :tiphat:

No Z action for me today, but I got to wake up to this:

hello, mr. onzege! dang, sucks to be you today on the 13th! :ugh2: :rofl2: hahaha.

sukiyaki tonight! :yum:

I saw mine sleeping in her garage this morning.

yah mine too. under the cover even. it's great cause we had some snow yesterday and this am and kinda windy at times. no snow on the Z wat so ever thanks to the cover when i opened the garage door. :p

Wow, right on the shore. Nice.:tup:

Yeah -- Kona -- no beach.

Onze you are suffering so. LOL Type that sux. :shakes head:

Today, I picked-up my Nismo rims. Decided to go with the original hyper-silver because of my exterior color - Gun Metallic. I like the contrast of the silver against the GM. :happydance:
Ordered Mike's Nismo decals, so I'm just about done for now. Thinking seriously about the CarbonSignal CF ducktail.

Once I get the Z cleaned tomorrow, I'll try and post some pictures if anyone is interested.

Happy weekend all! Go Texans and Saints!

I used the mini brushes that came with the Dr Colorchip kit. Also with the Dr Colorchip product you are supposed to smear the paint and then clean off the access paint after it is dry to the touch with a chemical they provide. I ended up doing the 3 step process they recommend about 4 times in a row until I got a result I could live with.

Thanks for the feedback ken and srenity. :tup:

You forgot alcohol! Lots and lots of alcohol!:happydance::icon17:

I could totally live there! I could be McGarrett's little beyotch if it ment I got to stay there! :tup:

Ohh congrats! hurry up with those :pics:

No Z action yet since I was able to work from home today but I will be making a run over to Target in about an hour for some grocery shopping/ hot girl lurking :tup:

Finished the payment on my rims. (hopefully they shipped today) Ordered a set of swifts(hopefully they ship mon) and cleaned the Z at a do it yourself carwash(which i've only done one other time)

Care to share what you ordered? :)

Drive the Z to Disneyland stayed for half the day and came home :)

No Z action yet today, but when I leave the office I am packing up and driving her 5 hours to Sacramento for the weekend. There is about a 10 mile section of winding canyon road between here and there on my prevered route. To bad it will be dark and cold so I have to take it pretty easy.

Slacker!

:p

Busy day with the Z. Completed the NST Pulley's install, bolted up the Berk HFC's and installed the K&N Typhoon CAI's. Now I sit and wait for the ARK CBE's to get delivered.

First door ding. I am too shocked to post a picture. After a long day out and about, I get back to my car in the parking lot and find a 6" vertical dent and scratched about 4" wide. Someone opened their car door on my door and, I don't even know, tried to keep opening it? Too horrible to take a pic. :) Never leaving home on Friday the 13th ever again.

forged specialties sc-m7. Yes I know about all the drama. I ordered them before all the drama.

Im thinking bout gettin a pulley. How was the install??

Took the Z out to run some errants and get gas. WOW!!!! have not put gas in a while and the gas prices for Premium are to the roof! :shakes head:

The install was a bit difficult for me because of my newness to this vehicle. Most difficult part for me, was removing the alternator. Now that it is back together, I am thinking that the belt may be too loose. NST did not say that a smaller belt was recomended for the install. My car has less than 200 miles on it, so I am certainly not replacing it if I don't have to. I will see it it makes noises after I get me exhaust delivered and hooked up. The NST kit comes with no instructions, but if you check out the Stillen site under their pulley, you can download an instruction sheet if that helps.

Wow dude! :eek: I'm so sorry! Where were you parked at?

Thanks man
Parked at the mall. I am going to file an accident report. Will anything come of that? They might have video surveillance of the other car. It was probably their kid.

Went for a nice two hour cruise, top down the whole time! Today was beautiful, about 60 deg and sunny! Really enjoyed the day and the CAR!

Well once the hobby shop opens i will bring my baby in for my cross drilled rotor upgrade

Glad to hear you got it all back together. If I pick up a pulley its gonna be the Stillen. No alternator pulley for me. I take it the NST kit comes w the alternator pulley as well? Did your butt dyno register any change after installing the pulley? Im sure she revs a bit quicker now:tup:

Still waiting on my CBE to get here. Said it was supposed to ship the end of this week or next week. I figured I'd strip the car down and install the HFC, CAI and pulleys while I wait for the CBE to get here. Now I wait in frustration as my butt is ready to dyno. I think you will be pleased with the Stillen and as others had remarked, they're no issues with charging without changing the alternator pulley. A much easier install too.

Hang in there, man.

Happy I don't forget the alcohol very often LOL. Actually I don't drink that often. I say that I don't meet the American Legion drinking requirement to join LOL I am a VFW qualified prior Marine.:usa:

That sux EasyD. I don't drive my car to work or park near anybody else when shopping. I do have a couple paint chips from driving so need to try the paint fix.

Good morning Z family. Happy Saturday! No Z action for me today. Flying home from Vegas later this evening.

Really sorry to hear the news eazyd.

Hahah, it's all good man! :tup:

Truth be told, I don't drink that often either (or that much at a single time for that matter), but a few sure makes for fun social interactions in a group of friends! :)

Thanks. At least it's sunny out today to improve spirits :)

Nice day here in Germany. Cool but sunny. Drove to a place north of Stuttgart looking at furniture. Winter has been easy here.

Happy Saturday!

I motored over to two different beaches to check the surf. Ended up jumping in for a bit and froze my azz off but had fun!

I hung my Mr. Onzedge Vacmaster special in the garage today!

Nice! What kind of suit do you have Waizz?
