LOL, I go to the dealer because my passenger side headlight is out...so I figured I'd buy one (ordered a pair of 6000K online but won't have them till next week)

Dealer was nice enough to say they are still nuder warranty, which was cool, especially after he told me one xenon bulb was $180

which is crazy cause I bought 2 online for $40 (must be cheepo's)

Lame thing is they won't just give it to me, they have to install it if covered under warranty...will take too much time out of my day to drop off my car for something like that...

Thats what DIY's are for!!

Took the Z to SpecialtyZ today, had seb tune it, check the nuts and bolts and install the whiteline rear swaybar locks (can't believe they sell em separately...).

Next appointment Dec 3rd, for M370 install along with Koni shocks and SPL swaybar front enlinks and a re-tune

Took mine for a drive to visit one of my companies office in Bullhead City (next Laughlin, NV). On my way out of town I was tailgated by a moto cop for about two miles before he decided to speed off and leave me alone!

Took the Z out for the first time in 10 days out the garage last night after I just got electricity back from Hurricane Sandy. Now today there's a rampant blizzard from nowhere today in NY like I've never seen before lol. NY can't catch a break. Storm after storm and its November!!

Z related stuffs:

Finally we have a sunny Wednesday in Toronto, thus I can wash the Z, dress the tires and QD the interior.

Also, I went to pick up these:

Mr. Alcheng -- did you buy enough?

I went to Part Source last week, originally I was looking for K&N, but they don't have any in stock, so I have to order them anyway, thus wanna give the Mobile a try.

I got 6 of them, since I am going to hibernate the Z in couple weeks time, the next oil change probably won't happen in April. I usually change engine oil every 3 months....

So I think I am ok...

Need one??

onzedge · 11-07-2012, 08:14 PM

I have not used Mobil 1. You know that the same company makes the K&N, right?

Yes, I found out after I placed the order last week, and it is $1/each less than the K&N.

Funny thing is, when I was in the store, another guy who work there argue with me the K&N is a different one and is better....

Oh well.....

That's just crazy talk.

I use the K&N because of the nut welded on it.

He insist the paper in the K&N is thicker, I don't want to argue with him but I know they are the same thing.

I haven't open the package yet, but I can do that later to find out is the nut on the Mobile also welded.

There is no nut on the Mobil 1.

Also -- do not argue with idiots.

I only get to drive the Z on the weekends but today I made an exception. I have missed the Z as my dailydriver! I went from putting gas in it every 9 days to once a month. lol I would drive it everyday but i think it's frowned upon to put a rear facing car seat in it.
