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

DavidInIndy · 06-03-2014, 10:57 AM

Enjoyed stopping at an intersection and chatting up one of Z brothers in a nice 1994 maroon, t-top. He said he toyed with selling it for years but just can't...and I don't blame him. That's still my favorite Z model.

ouch.

i carry several sockets and breaker bar in all my cars for emergencies. it's quite handy since you can break the nut loose and straighten the bar, twist off.

this was all on the freeway doing 75-80 too. scared the **** out of me. not sure if i need a new wheel now, since i drove at least 100yds on the blown tire due to people not letting me pull over to the right. luckily i did it safely and was able to change the donut on in about 20min. when i went to put the lugs on, the lug wrench would get stuck and chew the top of the stock lugs off. thanks nissan!!!

re-11. im pretty sure i have to replace both tires, and a wheel. god what an expensive flat. and yea, thanks...i nearly lost it, but was able to slow down in time

btw, for anyone who ever has to drive on the donut. my god, if it isnt obvious, drive slow. i was on 880S going 50mph with my hazards on. it felt like the car was going to veer off in any direction due to the roads.

I carry AAA in my wallet, and a Monkey in my trunk. Doesn't hurt that I live in AAA's home town, they're VERY attentive in this location. I've saved 10x my annual fee just with college age kids locking keys, flat tires, etc., not to mention wifey having flat tires, etc., when I'm out of town.

Today I met up with CFZC people. Met them 1/2 way thru a caravan down to my town. Ended up parked @ a bowling alley with 10ish other Zs.

Was fun.

Installed LED into OEM fog light and wired one set to plate lights and one to tail light. Basically created a 4th brake light/fog light.
Light on.

Pretty happy with end results and less than 15$ in lights and supplies.
