But if your are washing your car once a week, do you really need to dust it??

I might just use this:

Warm beauty summer day! Drove the Z. Its outside getting a nice tan and the sunshield is in place. I cannot wait to get out of the office and get on the road!!! Car is clean and happy!

Service next Monday - oil change, new drivers side aspheric mirror(factory piece not found on the US model) should give much better viz (does on my GTI) and sending the sample of Mobil 1 to Blackstone for some data

Oil going in this time is the Nissan Ester.

I have an oil change kit that was delayed, hence the Mobil 1 last time. I will use this up and then move back to the full synthetic. Might just UOA on the Ester next time as well.

Enjoy your day in the Z if you are driving one! Cheers,

Dave

Morning guys! Rolling in the Z in an hour! Decided to wait on spring install until I'm a bit more out of debt.

I am waiting on spring install as well but am going to tackle it myself to keep me out of debt. Could save you some money but I am sure you have considered it already. Just need a jack, tools and spring compressor and maybe a friend from your local Z meet to help. I am waiting to hopefully get it on my friends lift soon to make it even easier and I am in no rush.

I've got an uncle who quoted me $150 without the rear camber kit install. I could do it Saturday but I just dropped money on an expected vet bill.

Also getting overlays in soon so I'll need to pay someone to install those since there's no way in heck I'm touching the tail lights on this car. Springs will just have to sit in my hatch for another month or two. Oh and none of the Z guys have offered to help.

Seriously, the rear camber install takes less than an hour.

It's $200 with that installed. But that's also another piece I have to buy on top of install costs. And then spacers.....and then tint....and then overlays...and then painted rims...and then.......and then....... You know?

WTH is wrong with the local Z guys...someone needs to help with install stat! Sounds like we are in the same boat. I have had my springs and rear camber kit for over a month now but was waiting on getting my exhaust installed before the springs. Since I got my exhaust on a couple weeks ago my springs are on deck. I have had my overlays even longer...when I got my tint put on I had them quote me to just put the overlays on the tails. They quoted me $90 per tail for just labor...WTF?!?! So I am going to give it a shot myself when I feel like having that much patience.
