:icon18: I thinks the going would be a little rough yet!

:hello:

I'm a sad panda. Have to garage her for awhile. The 5 day outlook is bleak.

Maybe I should get tires big enough to run over curbs like the ones on those SUVs...:) that would be one strange looking Z !

Hang in there.

Hi guys. Happy Humpday :tiphat: Oh and Kenman I know what you use to guide yourself in the garage. A varnished charboilchedderburger on a string.:bowrofl: Have to work again tonight. Workin to support the toys LOL

No, around here they will put 30" on them... Now that would be strange..

12" lift kit and monster mudders. Ye ha Jethro look at that gator. (Banjo's in background) :ugh2:

Morning Gents...

It is raining on the 370Z, so no driving today....5 days old, and Summer tires...First rain..

Oh My, do the Math.....

I still have to clean my dump hole in the garage.. I have been upgrading the Kitchen, Floors, Moldings, Paint... And My THREE Car garage can only Fit the Z/28..It is the final dump hole..

The house inside looks great, but the man hole ??? Not so much.

Oh that will change this weekend..The car gets detailed next week at the dealers and that has coating put on it...If a bird poo eats the paint...they paint it over...So any chips will somehow turn into bird poop..i haven't figured out how yet..

But once that is done, It WILL come home to a space next to the Z/28..

Loved the 350Z...I really did. Strong , fast car..Only a 911, a AMG, and a BMW ever beat the old Z...Never raced a vette or a EVO..

But this 370Z deserves a spot in the garage, my dump hole..

But a condition of me buying the 370Z , is that the wife, on the next clear day, will help me clean and organize the chaos..

So today, I stare out at a wet 370Z...But it is still in the driveway..Like a Dream..

Good morning Z family. It's over 50 here in chicago... :excited:

Happy leap year day!

weather.com you are so fail... 100% precipitation chance turned into 40 with snow flurries. It's currently sunny and 50 degrees out. RAAAAAGGGGEE!!!!! Last night was supposed to dump hard. Clear all night. These guys can't predict weather to save their lives.

:icon18: :iagree:

Weather forcasting is the only job you can be 100% wrong 50% of the time and still have a job.

Notice the snowfall of ZERO inches

Well wait until afternoon and then report back if it rains.

Yeah this is why I dont really trust the weather guy. Plus they always do 10% chance or 90% chance just so if if something doesn't happen like they said, they are safe....:shakes head:

I just look at the radar and see whats coming today from out west.

mr.zman- lol, i was 1hr from going to bed so no cafeine for me. lol in the am, i have regular Verona. :tup: actually, im sipping Verona right now. :icon17:

mr.alcheng - does decaf help digestion? cause moraculously i had no heartburn last night. :tup:


morning, mr. happy! :tup: wooo~ im jelly. was hoping to pull out my Z this weekend but looks like slight chance of snow friday night = icemelt crap spray on the roads. :ugh2: will postpone for one more weekend...


hey import- good looking tint! :tup:

Im gonna be putting insurance back on my Z soon. Dont wanna be DDing it yet but I want to take it to the dealer and try to get a new trans from them. Im getting the infamous 5th gear grind. Figure ill leave it down there while Im not driving it. I know its gonna be like pulling teeth to get it fixed.

mr.alchemy- 5th gear grind, huh? sucks. my gearbox was tight on 5th and 6th the first 1k miles but been good since about 3kmiles.

Yeah, been getting it for awhile :(

:tup: ha yeah i figured that's why I made fun.

5 gear grind...that's not good. GL getting that resolved!
Does it affect certain years like the steering lock?

Oh Kenman somebody made fun of you. WTH I'd report them. Once you get your sushi charboilchessyburger eaten and chased with your chedder fries and milk shake :tup:

:ban::ban::ban:

...wait that's me! :inoutroflpuke:

Mini Vinnie's limmerick....

The rain on my Z, is making me crazy

he says with a gravely voice....

I live life, one rainstorm at a time...

Mr.happtheman, all you need is the Rear Camera, then you are good to go....Backward :icon18: :icon18:

Sames as Investment Adviser..... :icon18: LOL

jk, no offense if there are investment advisers in here, LOL

Mr.kenchan, decaf prevent you from staying :eekdance:, the Acid helps you digest. :icon18:

Mr.onzedge, :hello:

Mr.solarguy09, buy a house with Five Garages, problem solved.


Snowing and winds blowing like no tomorrow in here since early morning. And it always happen on Wed, my off day. :shakes head:

Anyway, was looking at some shift knobs last night and have 3 in my mind so far..

Anyone has any idea on what is that 'Reverse' style from MOMO is like?? It's short and I like the round style.

The PWJDM one is made of Delrin, is it a rubber type of material?

Pics Here, left to right: MOMO NERO, MOMO NERO Reverse, MOMO Race-EVO, PWJDM Ver.2.

what do your guys think??

Mr.Fire, you think Agent kenchan can still chase/run after the sushi charboilchessyburger treatment, eh??

I think in that case, Agent kenchan will choose to chase for ice-cream instead, eh... LOL

:bowrofl: :bowrofl:


oh..... plsss, don't :ban: me, LOL.

I already had a garage sale, and i gave some Z/28 parts to a Guy that really needed money for his house... So Now i just gotta get my pile organized..

It will be cleaned up...I won't be moving hopefully again...I should call it a one car garage....That is all it is...until i clean it.

Haven't done anything with the Z today but yesterday I installed my Evo-R Diffuser I've been too lazy to put on for over a month, it's just been sitting in a closet. I love it. Really adds the finishing touch to the Sunline kit.

Fitment is real good but there is about a 1/4" gap that spans about 4" along the upper right so I'm going to add some 3M tape there when I install the fog light.

I'll post better pictures from my camera once I take it out for photos

I saw a 80's 'vette like that once, except it had 36" tires and stood about F250 high. I was in my Z06 at the time. Both of us just stared at each other.

I like the stainless steel PWJDM knob a bit better:
Password:JDM V.2 Stainless Steel Shift Knob (Nissan 370Z) | Password JDM

I know people will tease me but I like the Nismo CF wrapped one. THose MOMO's look nice though.

As to coffee...I drink Cava. It is acid-neutral and dark. Instant coffee isn't the primo stuff, though.

LOL Yu guys is whacked :wtf2: great job Dallaz. More mods more mods :eekdance:

The derlin is a hard plastic I believe. Too light imo. If you get the PWJDM go stainless steel.

I have the black Nismo shift knob and I love it! It looks really cool at night too, sometimes almost appearing transparent because of the way it reflects light and my dark interior. Every once in a while I do miss the feel of the stock shift knob.... You don't know what you've got till its gone haha.

I like those metal one too, just always they might get too hot to grab in a summer day, what is the experience you guys have??

If the metal knob doesn't get too hot, then I can have more choices, but yes, the MOMOs are my fav. :icon17:
BTW, the interior of my Z is frost.

I went insane with the vacuum the other day (if there is such a thing to a car enthusiast) and cleaned the whole interior. She's lookin so clean I had to take a photo!

It looks much better full size. I have these photos in my build thread and they look a lot better than uploaded from the iPhone.

Same knob I have, love it!

Question: for your CF Rear Spats did you make/receive a brace or just have it attached via screws/3M tape?

Apparently Sunline sends with brackets and screws (Shine Auto which I got) you get zip lol.

I installed my Stillen G3's last night. Turned out that whoever had the car before me had them as well, because the holes were already cut and ready to go, made my job easier.

With tints I would imagine the knob should be fine.

Looks good. And :tup: for precut holes
