Because of the rain, my Z got was told say home today in the garage.

Still has that nice fresh wax feel to it even though I have 3 weeks of road brake and tire powder all over it.

I don't care what they say about global warming...suppose to be 50+ here through the weekend (Michigan), love it. I got a few side jobs today (IT related), a few bucks to add to my FI exhaust fund :)
Plus I got to drive around a lot. Only downside is every truck, minivan and POS on the road thinks they need to prove something to me. I'm only cruising around, why does everyone think I need to race them? It's not like I'm driving a Lambo or any other exotic vehicle. :confused:
p.s. I think I really like that spoiler!

tell me about it! I only have it on the road for 6 months of the year give or take a couple weeks.... but I love it when I get to have it! :driving:

Alignment done. Much better feel. It's amazing how much a cars geometry changes by the smallest changes. Especially toe.

But my tune for my headers will not be happening today due to unseen circumstances.

The more I see that EVO-R wing the more I like it/want it!

JARblue 11-30-2012 11:13 AM

Ordered Evo-R front/rear Z emblems yesterday. Received tracking number today :tup:

Read T 11-30-2012 01:07 PM

Replaced the headgasket, pushrods and rockers in my Morgan. Also a few weeks ago welded up a new engine back exhaust for it. Had to play around with the valve clearances a ton which is finally now done.
Then had to replace a blown coil and freeze plug.
Then replaced the front struts and all the front suspension bushes.

Oh, and my z1 oil cooler showed up. I'll get it on my next day off.

Today I took my car to a self wash station to get the salt off during lunch. As I popped a squat to spray the underside and wheel wells, I must've pressed (and held) unlock on my key FOB, and rolled my windows all the way down. I got up and gave what I thought were my windows, one good powerful blast of water before realizing what I had done.
:eek2:
I immediately took off my undershirt and wiped everything down, cranked up the heat/AC on recycle, and sat in my car for the remainder of my 1 hour lunch.

Seats are still a little moist, and so are my eyes.. and so are my pants.. :shakes head:

I'm going to have to watch out for that silly feature in the future, a lot of people seem to accidentally roll down their windows!

JungleZ 11-30-2012 03:15 PM

Got my f1 exhaust Tuesday car sounds great now but feels like I need to push the car harder to get her to move , just a tad bit sluggish it seems in low end.

I had one chuckle before realizing that I'm the kind of person to accidentally do something like that and how much it would suck :ugh2:

I have never rolled the windows down on accident, but I have set the horn off more times that I can count... sitting on the fob in my office chair, leaning up against a counter, and even reaching into the hatch with my pocket pushing on the rear bumper :shakes head:

I just got done giving her a good washing, hopefully so I can make it out to Cars & Coffee this Sunday. I only did one layer of wax last time and had planned to give her another coat today, but I ran out of daylight. F'n daylight savings time :shakes head:

I'm really sorry for your misfortune. I had to chuckle cause that's the **** that happens to me. I've done my fair share of damp pants.
All the best,

I was on a teleconference last year and one of my colleagues says -- hey your windows are down. I must have been sitting on my fob and the car was close enough to my office that I rolled them down. It was a friggin rainstorm that day and my car was very wet. It took a while to dry out -- like days. Everything will be fine.

Amazingz03 12-01-2012 05:33 AM

I watched it from my garage as rain poured down on it while i worked on my gsxr.

JARblue 12-01-2012 09:27 AM

Washed yesterday and then I had to park under a poop tree on the street all night cause some a$$hat parked in the middle of a two parking space metered curb cut around the corner from my buddy's condo downtown :shakes head: I did leave them a note. "WTF kind of parking is this. F'n douche. Have some courtesy and learn to park, you a$$hat" I should have gotten a picture...

ZForce 12-01-2012 11:15 AM

You guys must have the SECRET SPECIAL version FOB that rolls down windows. Mine HAS NEVER done it (2009 model). Three buttons, lock, unlock & alarm, that's it, no window button. Many times I have set off the alarm or locked the car with the fob in my pocket when washing the car and squating and such. After a few scars of the alarm going off I now make it a practice to leave the keys on the bench in garage. Sorry to hear of these mishaps hopefully no water stains on the fabric.

I paid extra to get the double-sensitive version of the fob -- so I would have something to do when the windows go down -- seemingly by magic. :icon17:

there's is not a window button you just have to hold down the unlock button and the windows will roll down....

I remember my 350z came with a feature when holding down the unlock for a long time the window would go down. I got ripped with the 370z since it was standard equipment on the 350z.

Donald, you overspent on the FOB, request a refund.

DR_ 12-01-2012 03:56 PM

Installed blinking smart stop and removed 2.5 pound weight from hatch while I was at it. I also wired an already installed rear fog light to act as 4th brake light.

Tribalpinoy91 12-01-2012 08:08 PM

Which fuse is the steering wheel lock?

also, waiting for 64 degree Monday to wash the Z!
