What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

I just noticed that after beating on her on a canyon drive and a week of dd, she has burnt 1/4 quart of oil. I guess that's just part of owning a sports car. Gonna get her washed up today!

It is surprising isn't it. Oil is fine, fine, fine, down a half quart.

I need a wash as well. Today or tomorrow.

1. Ramped the car.
2. Drained the oil (with Rudy's help bringing the wrench):

3. Filled her up with M1.
4. Put the top down, applied sunglasses to Rudy and me, and took a lazy ride with this on: Roger Miller - King Of The Road - YouTube

Sprung for some GT-R spark plugs. 2 weeks post-supercharger install and no leaks so the car is back under the knife:
-Install Motordyne ART pipes
-Install weird rotor cover thingies I got from Japan
-Reinstall undershroud
-Swap out spark plugs for the colder GT-R plugs
-Final tune

The fullsize f250 next to me didn't have one either! I did it so that the windows will dry plus I already moved it. Everybody is a little handicapped...some more than others.

Did you NOT see the large blue placard in the front window hanging by the rear view?

motored my Z this am, did a SprayOn CarWash afterwards on the side panels and rear bumper as i drove through some wet spots. then QD'ed the entire car, spot clayed her butt, and did 2 very tiny touchups.. one on the hood and one on the driver side quarter.

overall a great morning.
