Morning guys. :yawn: Had a very long night and now debating whether or not to actually go in to work. Here are some pics from last night, but I really want to see how it looks in the sun. :excited:

Turns out there is a rather large ding where the paint went down and it now shows like a sore thumb. He offered to fix it but since I might be upgrading to a kit at some point, I said fvck it. You can only notice it from just the right angles. Also, the spot under the fog light was missed and I wasn't able to get a pic of it after it was corrected. I'm happy with it for now. :)

Happy, I'm happy to read this! :tup:

Looks great Pint! Yah, I thought I could see what looked like a ding on the front fang..and you confirmed it. I really like how it turned out!:tup:

And I'm happier that it's done!! No more drama! :icon17:

hi mr.gale! :hello: i decided not to get the 2595LTM yesterday cause it does not support ecoRoute (OBD2 monitoring)... so i ran my 1490LTM today in the Z. :p it paired up with my droid4 nicely for phone. for my G, i think im going to get the motorola roadster2. :tup:

mr.happy- good to hear you're finally done with the ordeal yet again. :icon17: you're like a regular now with the wheel repair guy. hahaha

hey pint- that looks good! :tup:

the drive in the Z this am was fantastic. :p i got cut off by some ricor-fart-racing-car-looking-pos-miata-im-going-to-racing-juu-big-ego-but-still-an-idiot, but didnt bother me. i would not want to be driving that noisy thing on weekends. lol

Thanks guys! :tiphat:

Good Stuff!!!!

Nice work!!!

Congrats Brantly:tup: Enjoying the ZDAYZ car show right now. Last day of the festivities. Exhaust comp in a couple hours then dinner, a party and its all over:(

Howdy O.F.C.!!!!!


Was busy in the store from start (11am) to now, finally have time to sit down and :postwhore: LOL

Mr.happytheman, very glad to hear all the damaged rims are now fixed!! I couldn't be happier for you too!! :tup: :tup:

Fresh Looking Rims + PSS(with onzedge's spirit) + sunny&warm = Driving Paradise :tup: :tup:

:iagree: I think we don't have this in Canada.... Gotta ask Fire to train his ninja Raccoons to set it up.. :bowrofl:


Mr.kenchan, looks like the Roadster2 is the way to go, speaking of In-Car speakerphone, you may also consider the Blueant S4, I personally don't use speaker phone because I am driving a roadster, but I use a bluetooth headset, and so far I am on my 4th Blueant and they are so far so good, the noise cancellation performance is excellent and I would suggest you look into that too. :tup:

Ms.Pintsize725..... :tup: :tup:

nice work!!!

Nice! :tup:

Looks great Pint! The rear shot with your exhaust :yum:

:icon18:

Just checking in. Taking a Break from correcting the Z. I was hoping I could get away with a one step but my PO106FA just isn't enough to meet my standards. Looks like a two step will work. Did a test spot with D300 on a MF cutting pad, followed up with the PO106FA on an Über green pad, this is the :tup: combo.

Have a great day guys, I'll be in the garage if you need me. :bowrofl:

Um, anyone know what the best way to get paint off the tips of the exhaust? :shakes head::crying:

But you had fun right? Looking forward to your stories/pics/vids sir. :tup:

You can try 99% alcohol, look it up in the pharmacy department, or nail polish remover.

Quick post before I have to get off the computer. Just got to my fiance's house with my Z. beautiful day, but I'm not sure if any of you remember me talking about this problem a few months ago...

I'm sitting waiting at a light, car in neutral. Lights about to change, I clutch in, put in first. Car begins to rev to 5k RPMS without touching gas pedal. Stays there revving. I put my car into neutral release the clutch, still revving... clutch in a few times. Still revving, turn off the car, turn back on(while still in traffic), still revving. Finally after I lift my foot off the break pedal it stops revving. Keep in mind it didn't start till the initial clutch in and then didn't stop until my foot was off the break. My foot was no where near the gas and my mats don't even touch the gas pedal. I have to bring it into nissan to get it checked out.

Have you tried it with the SRM off??

It's not something that I can recreate as it's happens randomly. It probably won't happen with SRM off(only assuming). but regardless it's not acceptable even if it just happens with SRM on.

That sounds like it should work. Good luck Pint. Sorry to hear about the paint.

-------------------------------------------------------

Nick, Ive never heard of that before. It sucks when you have something intermittent like that because it makes it so hard to troubleshoot. :ugh2:

hey pint, is what finish is that, satin?

Phew, came right off luckily! Still need to get under and check to see if it ended up on the carbon fiber as well.


Mr. brucelidat, it is a satin black. Here are some pictures with sunlight! Please excuse the dead bugs on the front end, haven't had a chance to clean her up.

Give it a try by driving with the SRM off and see will that happen, if it doesn't happen then probably it's a glitch within the SRM program.

GL!! :tup:

Nice! Perfect timing. I was trying to figure out what finish I wanted to and was leaning towards satin. Seeing your picture shave confirmed it for me. Thanks! Looks good! :tup:

Thank you sir and glad I could help! :tiphat:

Ms.Pintsize725... nice PW... I really want to put my Z beside yours... :tup: :tup:

hi mr.alcheng! :hello: thanks for the linky, i will check it out. :tup:
yah, i think for my car i will use a roaster2 for now unless there are others that can auto on/off. :)

sounds good, mr.gale! :tup: :pics: when done. :tup:

hummm...that is weird indeed. at least you have a MT where you can control the engagement. :) i saw a vid of a hyundai that crashed into another car after blowing through 2 traffic signals in downtown korea due to sudden acceleration. hope they recall all the hyundai's before someone dies.

looking good, pint! :tup: :) nice job with staying up late and getting rid of the overspray. :tup:

Is that what they call it these days? :rofl2: Jk jk. Glad you think it looks nice!

Thank you sir. :)



Off to plan what I want done next! Tempted to get it tinted this weekend.

Glad that paint came off! :tup: I gotta say, that exhaust and satin valance looks mighty :yum:

A little PSS and undamaged wheel love! :excited:

happy - :yum: :tup:

Can I :leghump: your car? :p

They look great!

Glad the over spray came off easily. Your car looks great. :tup:

I'm taking pics as I go. Hopefully I'll have it finished up sometime tomorrow. (the paint correction at least)

That's a thing of beauty!

Thanks everyone! :)

Yes Pint you can, but you must allow photography! :rofl2:

I love the way the reflection is showing off the fender well! :yum:

Very very nice. :tup: :tiphat: :hello: :happydance: :driving: :tup:

I swear, I think a little alarm goes off in your head when anyone mentions PSS! :)

Hmm...

Maybe I wrote myself a little script that monitors entries in the forum. Maybe that little script looks for various character strings in new posts -- character strings like "Koni", "Michelin", "PSS" or "boobs". Maybe that little script has a simple algorithm that will trigger an SMS to my phone and an IM to my messenger account when it finds these user-defined strings.

Then again, maybe not.

It's really only a little voice in my head that tells me someone has posted something cool/excellent.

:icon17:

Youre certifiably crazy don't you know, and I'm on board with that! :tup:
