What a waste of a great car and road, but safety first.

Happy Ending?

Your dash appears to have fungus growing on it.

:icon17: I got it when I was in South Carolina. The sun down there was brutal, and I wanted to keep the dash in decent condition.

I have that video from the CiN dyno day somewhere here....mine is the car (2nd MB 370 I believe) that sounds like it hasn't been turned on....the last MB 370 that sounds ferocious is a buddy's who has only deleted the muffler and resonator.

I'm curious to see the sound improvement.

:roflpuke2: Thanks for the congrats, but no - it wasn't on a registry.
A buddy 'gave' me the exhaust as he went another route. They have the stainless tips, and I've ordered the titanium direct from Invidia.

DatsunFTW 09-26-2013 01:12 PM

Finished installing my spacers. Then I plastidipped my wheels black and used glossifier. Looks really good :D
Im gonna try to see how red plastidip on my door handles goes with the solid red of my Z.

Just like on American Pickers, I found a full set of stock sport rims at a used wheel shop for 900 bucks! Sweet. I needed these for track tires!!!

They are newly powder coated gloss black and are going to make awesome snow/ track backups. Plus now i can run square if I want, though I wonder about 275s up front and clearance...

does it actually work though? I did this on my 08gt by putting them all on the spare tire in the trunk. The light still came on every day. Good idea though!!!

Shadezz 09-26-2013 08:34 PM

Packing up for tomorrow morning track day at Highplains Raceway....I'm hooked.

LMBmikeZ 09-26-2013 08:36 PM

once you hit the track you always want to go back :tup:

kenchan 09-26-2013 10:22 PM

swapped to my nismo wheels tonight, cleaned up, tires dressed up & pressured up, and ready to roll on sat. :D

also moved the WEDS to my storage until next season. :)

came home with a stiff neck and all...but by the time i was done working on my car i felt refreshed. :tup:

dAvenue 09-26-2013 10:37 PM

Installed the new hood tonight. I need to adjust the right latch a little bit and paint the mesh black, but overall I fuggin love it.

critical 09-26-2013 10:41 PM

bought a Fast Intentions 18'' catback. shopping for tires. thinking PSS in 265/35/19 and 285/35/19

Shadezz 09-27-2013 06:34 AM

Heading out to the track....weather calls for light rain/HI of 68!! Perfect!!

JARblue 09-27-2013 04:57 PM

Washed the Z :happydance: It started sprinkling just as I started to dry the roof. I looked up and saw it threatening more, so I pulled it into the garage to finish drying. Sure enough, within 5 minutes it was raining significantly. Unfortunately, that means I will have to do the wheels some other day.

GaleForce 09-27-2013 06:12 PM

I drove the Z to work twice this week. Good times. :driving:

alcheng 09-27-2013 06:43 PM

it was happened on Wed:

Washed, Waxed and Driven.... :icon17:

Shadezz 09-27-2013 07:34 PM

Great day at the track with Surfdog....videos to be uploaded soon!! (the good stuff...stay tuned!!)

Not a good run but I had a really fun time. Getting on that strip is a new experience and nothing like I have ever done. :thumbsup:

I drove the Z home from work and watched as a cop pulled over a speeding Buick Park Avenue. It's nice to be left alone :tup:

DLSTR 09-28-2013 08:22 AM
