In face, I did the K&N drop-in too, but those threads about CAI recently just making me itch very badly!!!

The roads were wet this morning so I left my Z home, too. I washed and buffed him last evening so I didn't want to get him dirty.

huh.... yah, i didn't know Z1 made them when i ordered the HPS... at the time it was only HPS that had them. not sure about the fitment cause mine fits fine. i did some minor trimming but that's all.

mishimoto... no thanks. some wannabie-japanese china folks in USA, i heard.

In fact, I did the K&N drop-in too, but those threads about CAI recently just making me itch very badly!!!

hahaha. i had a cai before and while i liked the response the noise was pretty loud. too loud for me especially at high rpm.

hahahaha. i use weatherbug app on my droidx and it's been very reliable so far.

not only does it have radar it also shows barometric pressure so as soon as you see it dropping you know it's very likely that it's going to rain/snow.

I got a call this morning from my Nissan dealer telling me the part has arrived. I am waiting until Monday to take her in for the repair because Mondays are when the paintless dent guy is in and I am getting that annoying little dimple in my roof removed at the same time.

They also confirmed that the mechanism is Rev D.

I think so. The part also came in 8 calendar days ahead of the original estimate.

At least it looks like there is a light at the end of the tunnel now. Almost there!
