I'm putting on a total intake, HFC, exh, and tune and can hardly wait to feel and HEAR the changes to my 09. Kenchan, I don't think the dealer will pull your CB because I think it effects/disables other systems. I will put this where ut belongs in other thread, but I pulled mine (its an 09, so totally necessary) and now the passenger side child-seat airbag/sensor/disable function does not work. On the other hand, as long as you don't put kids up there, its the only thing I can detect that is adversely effected. Also the mod it a *totally* easy one, even for non-mechanical guys like me. Good luck!
Awesome, Surf You will love the difference in power and sound! Tuning really wakes her up

Morning guys. At some point I need to catch up on who's doing what.

Congrats, honorary dad, on your 12 years sober!

Hi Alchemy, Alcheng, Happy, JAR, Onze, Kenchan, Gale, LunaZ and everyone else!

okay this was untrue. just got back from dealer he says my airbag is fine. The light is not supposed to stay on while driving it is only supposed to light up a moment during start to show the airbag is off. He says this is new to the Z the older Nissans had the light stay on.



Anyhow sorry if I confused anyone.

I put about 100 miles on the Z tonight.

Got caught in a little rain storm and that was a surprise- I don't think there was any in the forecast until tomorrow and we haven't gotten hardly any all summer anyway. The car looks like I dipped it in honey and drove through a dust storm...

I have to say though, it was totally worth it.

davey-
I packed up the TPMS to ship out for installation in the new wheels. I'll be getting wheels and tires (PSS ) installed in the US and shipped to me. I don't trust the tire monkeys around here to install tires on my new wheels so I figured I'll pay a small premium to get it done by the guys who I'm buying the wheels from.

Good morning and greetings from the lake at Battle Lake, MN. I am disappointed because the town grew by a little more than 100 people since my last visit and its population is now around 860 or so – a virtual metropolis. So I am checking in while waiting for folks here to get ready for the day. Obviously, I have no Z plans today.

On a different, and personal, note, today -- July 26 -- marks a milestone for me. It was 12 years ago today I took my first step on the path of living a sober and clean life. Since then, it's been one day at a time working on my "second chance" at life. Not always easy or simple, but always worth it. Thanks for reading and have a great day.

Good Morning, Mr. Onzedge. I'm sorry to hear the thriving metropolis of Battle Creek, MN is just too much for you

Congratulation on the 12 year anniversary! That path is a difficult one that not many people are able to walk, and you should take pride in your accomplishment. Simply inspiring

Morning everyone else

On a Z related note, I am heading to work in a few. I did not get a chance to look at my weird rattle last night, but it hasn't happened again... yet.

Since it's filthy from my Silverstone-esque drive around Baltimore's beltways last weekend, I think I'll take it to work today.
I do actually enjoy driving in the rain.

Just received a nice message on my profile: "Why don't you come out as ghey?"
Seriously? Thought I'd logged into the Ford Ranger Forum by accident
