sup Neighbor.

I Drove 30 minutes home after work at 11 pm just to get up at 4am and drive back in. If it wasn't for my Z, I'd sleep at work on nights like this but I like bombing around the city (SF) while its still sleeping. Also all the Prius driving Pelosi lovers get a little early morning Berk alert when I wake up and blast back to the airport...:stirthepot:

I'm not sure if that makes me a jerk,:icon14: But I do know its midnight here and people are blasting by in there Harleys, and honking up a storm in their Preii like its cool, (practically shaking me out of bed). I guess the 4 am launch out of my parking garage is my way of saying "thanks"

Got to love city living. I can't wait to move next month.

Good morning Z family. :hello:

Been under the radar most of the year, back for the time being. A lot of old faces and some new...greetings. :tiphat:

Installing shocks on both the Zs this morning :yum:

:tup:

Taking things out of the car today to prep for Sears Point tomorrow.

It makes me happy you call it Sears Point still. Good luck out there. :tiphat:

Installed LEDs to replace the stock interior lights. Replaced vanity lights, trunk light and license plates lights. $36.01 shipped and 10 minutes of my time for brighter lights? I'll take it any day.

Now the only one left stock are the visor lights, but those are too hard to do..

Took it into my local Nissan dealership to fix a rattle that they created. I had them install a JDM turn signal stalk to operate my European fog light- it was the first one they ever did, so I guess they messed up a bit. My loaner car is a Nissan Altima 2.5S, and man is it Boring! My Z isnt a whole lot louder when casually cruising around, nor is the ride quality much worse. Boy, does this Altima feel slow! Plus, it's hard getting used to fellow drivers not rubbernecking in admiration at seemingly ever traffic signal!

Let me know how those lights turn out my Bruddah... I've been itching to do that mod myself... Now if only I didn't have to wait until December for my Fast Intentions exhaust!

Let me know if that new air filter makes a noticeable difference. I'm entertaining the thought of doing the same thing to my beast.

Went to my local z meet. Was great fun as usual.

about to remove that nasty dealer badge..

I'm surprised more Z's aren't debadged. It looks so much cleaner, IMO.

I'll be debadging it as soon as I get mine.

I'm not really bothered by the baging. Though sometimes I wish on the front It was the z logo instead of tthe Nissan logo.

I gave it a complete detailing...and spent some time admiring my new sound system. Its SWEET!!

I'd love to debadge mine but.... It's a 40th Anniversary.

Had a nice drive through downtown Chicago, highway and country roads this morning :D

Touched it up after detailing it yesterday and taking it out last night....took some pictures to post here too.

damaged my CF side blades on a speedbump :(

...but these are the bumps I go over everyday in my underground condo parking lol...just wasn't paying attention

used my grey touch up paint and some clear epoxy...might turn out ok

had pics but they disappeared into iphoto abyss

Ya, thats the only reason I haven't debadged mine

Plus having the 370 there helps me in my "its not a 350" arguments lol

its funny because even with that people will call it a 350z im like nope try again its right there! :icon18:

drove her to new haven then to the mall for a bit. Wash and wax later :D

I need to do this too. Is it safe to use nail polish remover on the Z to take off the sticker?

If it's just a vinyl sticker just heat it up with a hair dryer and it should peel right off.

My ZSpeed shield appeared today. I am installing it sometime over the weekend.

pulled my factory spoiler off for a better one...

Nice. I was thinking about buying one. Looking forward to hearing your opinion on it. :tup:

:tiphat:

Today I changed my oil. Magnetic drain plug, 5+ quarts of Redline 5w30 and a K&N filter. First oil change since I bought it (used) and I swear the previous drain plug was torqued to at least 80 lbs. As was the filter. Glad I know what's in my car now, because whoever did that, likely didn't care about the brand of oil either.

Next up, transmission fluid change and rear diff oil change. All I need are the new drain plug washers and I'm set.

:tup:

front diffuser wrapped in some matte black vinyl. woot! awesome mod for 10bucks worth of vinyl :icon17:

Taking Mrs.Force out for her birthday lunch in the Z today.

Happy Birthday to her!!!

I still have yet to clean my car up from Sear Point Sunday. I had my *** handed to me all day, but I did pass a custom 430 Ferrari Spyder with a manual transmission.

Awesome! Just to be on the track at the same time as those other cars would be cool. I bet you learned a lot from Sears Point and will be back better than ever ready to do some more passing :driving:

Happy Birthday Mrs. Force! She and I have a B-day in common. I'm visiting my mom tonight after work. I figure this day means more to her than myself. The Z will be present.

Yes sir, that's the plan, in November.
