Thanks to Sin and Rick at AeroJacket!!!! :happydance:

My sweet beautiful cat of 16 years passed today, so I took the Z out driving, hard.

It helps a bit.

Sorry 'bout that.

Looks great Rafael! :yum:

Meowch! Sorry. When my dogs passed last year I was unbelievably grief stricken.

Hang in there. (This is where I wish I had that cute picture of the kitten hanging from a limb to post)

I was going to go for ZURFDOG but I think I'll just keep this one!

Bought my spacers today. I am rapidly running out of (NA) mods.

Sponsor me? :icon17:

Sure, if you sponsor my turbo build

I'm also running out of NA mods lol. once I get wheels and suspension, time to start saving for the TT. Hopefully Fast intentions TT or GTM TSC will be done testing by then.

Headers came in, looks like I got a free set of test pipes too, shout out to Concept Performance for the hook up!! :tup:

As for the Z shes in, snowed in FTW :D

You're funny.

Spent $75 at car toys to clean up my yellowed 09 lamp covers. The pix don't do it justice, but the headlights look as good as new.

Totally worth the effort!!!

Here are some pix. I dunno if they show how much better. (It's a huge difference)

Nice Surf, what did you use?

Made the guys who park in the 'midlife-crisis-parking' section a little unsettled putting the Z this close to their Boxsters/Caymans. There's usually 3 others sitting with them, a black, a yellow, and a silver.

Thought the clouds reflecting looked nice, so I ruined the opportunity of a nice pic by using the iPHone::roflpuke2:

Got my wheels and intake tube back from the powder coaters. Still have to put on my R1 Concepts rotors, so I mounted the tires and threw them on just to see how it will look.

I was looking at my EVO-R Z emblems today and realized the backings that were sent with them are for the standard Nissan burger emblem and not the Z logo emblem :facepalm: I'm glad I sprayed the clear coat on the backings and didn't use the VentureShield pieces that Mr. GurneyEagle (I figured I'd mess it up the first time anyway) :tup:


Here's a mock up of the emblem :excited:

Let my 15yr old niece who just got her learners drive a bit today. Asked me if we could find a more open road cuz everyone is driving too slow. :cool:

:eek: Brave Man here folks :tiphat: :icon17: :tup:

Pfffft! I tried teaching my fiance a standard in my Civic coupe.....putting her in the Z to learn....THAT would be brave


/apparently i'm a coward as it's not going to happen

:icon18:

Well sorry to say I used a tech at the detailers shop. But it went like this
60 grit
100 grit
Wool buffing pad with compound
Cotton pad with compound
Foam pad with compound
Fine foam pad with compound
Acrillic finish/sealant
Light buff over cured acrylic

Total time 1.5 hours of continuous sand/buff. (I watched on and asked a ton of questions so I can do myself next time)

Thanks Waizzz. The rain is killing me. Z was locked down staying cozy in the garage.

Good to know, thanks for posting that!

I hate you, my Z is getting pounded right now :(

Can't wait to see your mods in person, I will take a bunch of pics! Any plans for wheels, if not your OEM's still look good with spacers

LOL, the rains pounded today. Glad I did not take it to work. Really torn between a new set of wheels or coilovers Waizzz.

Did a redline fluid swap today. Oil change, trans and diff fluid flush refilled with redline. That craps pretty nasty and I only had 15k on the car!

I went out last night for a drink downtown and ran into that same convertible black cherry that I see all over town. Evo r rear diffuser, 40th wheels, side skirts, springs and spacers. I watched him park as I was walking into a club to meet some strange. Anyways, long story short I was throwing back a couple beers and met some cool chicks and there was one other dude there that I met and we were all talking to these girls. I see this dude pull out his iPhone and had the front of a 370z as a wallpaper so I asked if he drove one and sure enough it was his that I've seen all over town. What are the odds!? Real cool guy about 50-55 years old, bought me a beer and we talked about the Z's.

Sorry for the long story. Just thought it was awesome finally meeting the dude driving tha sweet looking vert and just the way we ran into each other was cool. 4 good looking 40-50 year olds with silicone chests lol and us! (I'm just 26) ;) they're fitness models....

Took out the Z and C300 both for some tender loving hand wash and detailing with the fiancé.

See! I told you so!

Braved the wind and cold air to clean my black beauty. Then went on a back road excursion. If gas was cheaper, I'd still be driving around. :driving:

Since it rained today, I couldn't wash the car. I detailed the interior, and on a whim, I painted the shift boot trim to color match my car (KAD). It's a very subtle change, but I like it and plan to do the same to more interior pieces :tup:

added illuminated kickplates to the car!
