Mine too!!! I evacuated to the north shore with her, and was really surprised how much I could fit in the hatch - I fit about 4 days worth of groceries, a pack of bottle water, four 5 gallon gas drums, 2 computer bags, and a car cover!

Hope you didn't go over the 450lb limit!

i swapped my power steering cooler out for a larger one yesterday! woot

shitty pic, but heres a comparison of our stock versus aftermarket (derale). its almost twice the length and only cost $30. also filled it back with redline dextron 6! cheap mod for (hopefully) double the cooling

Got my Nismo exhaust midpipe replaced under warranty by dealer after developing a very bad rattle under accel/deaccel. They had to order it, so it will be a while before it gets here. Sounded like a baby rattle shaking or moroccos or something like that, very weird.

interesting. i have that too...but i believe its from the HFC's i installed. how did you/nissan determine the midpipe was broken?

DCNISMO · 08-27-2012, 10:54 PM

I took it in for them to listen, and that's what they thought it was. I have Berk HFC as well and they used to hiss some, but this sound is a chirping rattle. I don't see how they could make this type of sound. It only happens lightly under accel but really comes on on deaccel. They obviously saw I had the HFC on too. I hope the new mid pipe gets rid of it.

I havent really driven the Z much as my daily driver has been putting in work. But I was off today so I gave the Z a nice drive. So nice going from a 98 civic to a 370 back to back lol

Yesterday installed new AD08's. Got to get then broke in. I have a great feeling there goIng to be better than RE 11's. I really like the fact I went with a 275 up front. Feel tons better.

Also installed Odyssey battery (16lbs) in the rear of the car.

Looks like I somehow managed to scratch the shiz out of the CF cans on my FI TDX. Need to get under and inspect it closer.

They are re-striping the road where I live. The double yellows are gone.

Christmas came early this year. Folks are not expecting someone like me who dove the road for years when it was white striped.

Drove the Z to the jeweler to get Mrs.GaleForce a birthday present

"a girls best friend" and It has nothing to do with that book you're reading... diamonds and gold... Nothing crazy just a really good quality half carat with a nice 18 carat white gold band.

I am still enjoying the lack of center line stripes.
