Nissan 370Z Forum - What did you do with your Z today IV

Almost got killed by a big GMC white van. i was coming up in the left lane and they obviously didn't look, changed lanes right into me and I had to do a big swerve into the carpool to avoid them. If there was no carpool lane, I would have been crunched, maybe dead, pissed me off. Also had an old Altima smoke his tires braking to not rear end me. Shitty drive, especially with there being 2 accidents as well.

:eek: dang...

My head unit and speakers for the S2K were delivered today. :tup: I get the rest of the stuff later this week.

Also got all of my watchmaking supplies in today. Only takes ~3 days from Hong Kong via Hong Kong Post. Funny since it can take 6+ days to get something from California!

Since I'm an uber productive employee on Mondays I took the time to swap the bezel insert from my new SKX007 automatic diver:

I think I may change the dial and hands soon.

nice! :tup:

Not familiar with the Orient movement but I'll look into it for you.

You should have a regulation dial if you open the case back. Have a looksy: For those of you who are considering regulating your mechanical movement.... (Image Heavy)

If you open it up and make an adjustment make a small one since they are usually pretty sensitive. You can see just how tiny of an adjustment that guy made.

Hi guys. Just checking in again. Had to call into work tonight. I think I got a sinus infection from the AC in the motel. Headache, body aches and sneezing my head off. Oh then my nose drains like a hose. :shakes head: brucelidat glad you didn't wreck. I was suprised all weekend and no bad drivers. Did get a couple pissed looks from prious drivers going 12mph over the speed limit. I go 9 and stay in the fast lane, I do pull over if I see somebody coming up on me.

I've been looking at turbo kits for the s2k all day long. I don't think it's worth it, but I'm not done doing my analysis so we'll see.
