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

JARblue · 12-02-2013, 09:44 AM

At NTB getting new-to-me rear tires mounted and balanced. I've got their 5 year alignment deal, so that will happen, too.

exsanity · 12-02-2013, 10:46 AM

So, being that I am out of the country right now, my mom took the Z to the dealership to get it serviced.

So, if you're driving around the Clarksville area and see a GM Z driving 20 MPH under the speed limit, that's my car. (She is terrified of it.

i would get a walmart battery.

dura something it was called.

Ghostvette · 12-02-2013, 01:16 PM

LOL, I know, paying top $$$$ for a house that your neighbor is spitting distance away... getting taxed to death, the every year/every other year smog checks... I spent several years in SoCal, so I feel your pain...

osirus · 12-02-2013, 03:28 PM

Got the call from the Stealership - Looks like the Slave Cylinder in the Clutch Mechanism was faulty - Full Replacement - Heading out later tonight to get her back or first thing 'morrow. YAY! Finally Got her back in our hands...

srbrubak · 12-02-2013, 03:45 PM

Won't be doing much with the Z. It has been put away for the winter. If we have some real nice December weather, I might get it out and take it for a drive. But only if it is above 40 and the city hasn't put their usual ten tons of sand and salt on the roads.

Gadgetech · 12-02-2013, 07:57 PM

I haven't done anything with the Z yet...but THANK YOU 370ZTune and Z1!

Removed the front license plate and filled the holes. No more front license plate. Much cleaner look.

OldFart · 12-03-2013, 11:48 PM

Yesterday I ordered the OEM Nismo side skirts to start my conversion (just the front and sides), also ordered all the brackets for the Nismo front bumper, lastly ordered a VIS AMS carbon fiber hood for it. Going with this one.

Hoping to hear back from Dirty on shipping for the Nismo front bumper and diffuser then the fun can begin!!!!

It was a busy day.

chops · 12-04-2013, 03:45 PM

got new wheels!! unfortunately....the WRONG offset for the front

should have gotten 19x9.5 +24 and 19x10.5 +15

edit: vividracing already sent me 2 replacements and labels to send the wrong ones back. AMAZING CUSTOMER SERVICE!!!

RumbleFish · 12-04-2013, 03:59 PM

Dropped her off with Seb at SpecialtyZ today.

She's getting a Stillen G3, GTM 25 row oil cooler, F.I CBE w/ 18" resonators, H&R 20mm wheel spacers @ all 4 corners, Swift Spec-R springs, SPC rear camber arms & toe bolt, RevUp tune.

She'll be ready Friday

Nice, It'll feel like a new car when you pick it up! I just picked up some Z1 20mm bolt-on spacers that I'll be doing myself soon and am debating if I should add other things as I can afford it or save up and do everything at once like this.

Things on my list are Z1 post-MAF tubes w/ K&N drop-ins, Berk HFC/Exhaust combo and, possibly, a Z1 or Motordyne manifold and a tune when it's all finished. Right now I'm leaning towards the post-MAF/K&N's first and then save up for everything else.

Ohhh can't wait to see those installed!

I think you meant you ordered the wrong rear though?

Wow, you're going to get a completely different car than what you dropped off. Lucky you!

RumbleFish · 12-04-2013, 07:12 PM

Thanks...Yeah, I'm pretty excited.

Now, if I can just find an audio installer here in L.A. that's familiar with the JBL MS-8 (and the Z) I'll be set.
