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

LunaZ · 09-08-2014, 11:51 AM

I put air in the tyres.

kenchan · 09-08-2014, 11:54 AM

yah, i need to psi up the tires too. ambient temps dropped considerably.

SurfDog · 09-08-2014, 12:51 PM

I'm editing High Plains Raceway track video from my "TRACK ADDICT" app.

A buddy and I took a girl from work out in his Audi and I followed in the Z as she CRAWLED around the course. She rode with me in the Z for a few laps and said "Your crazy!! I don't think I want to ride with you again" (I was rolling at about 8-9/10ths lol) The track *was* a bit wet and we did get a LITTLE loose a time or two, but never left control.

We take it for granted what an exiting ride the Z can be to the uninitiated!

kenchan · 09-08-2014, 06:26 PM

sounds good, mishuko.

Just picked up a set of Swift lowering springs for the car and will have them installed this weekend. I'll drive around for a little while and let them settle in and then have the alignment done. Should be fun!

Today I tore into my Roadster's storage compartment for the Convertible Top. Found a styrofoam insert and once it was removed, I found the perfect spot for a 8"Bazooka Tube Sub. Quite surprised at the amount of room in there. There are actually 6x9 cutout's in there as well. Should easily sound better than the 10" square sub box that is taking up half of my trunk.

Hardware kit is in. About to pack up to get ready to head out first thing in the morning.

Took my car to Nissan for new all-season summer tires install (had 50% left, but had the tires on hand), ordered NISMO 2 side graphics, dropped in K&N's, finished my 21K or so inspection, re-tinted back window (had a small rear window tear from hauling a sharp metal object that shook), changed oil (even-though it wasn't due), bought a GTR cap & an official Nissan emergency road kit (just in-case)...Oh, & test drove a C6 Corvette - didn't like it (the transmission was bad at 30K, & banged).

mishuko · 09-09-2014, 07:20 AM

My Z passed the 20k km mark last night on my cruise... it's so much fun to drive!

MadMan · 09-09-2014, 08:01 AM

Finally, after over a week, their Ins. Comp. approved the repairs this a.m.
Full amount of my shops estimate.
Rental car.
Diminished value (tbd) after repairs.

Now... must wait 2-4 days for parts to arrive.
7 to 10 days for repair.

LNATKFRNG · 09-09-2014, 08:07 AM

put the spacers on 25f-35r

Haboob · 09-09-2014, 08:30 AM

Yay for the Z being the DD!

Yay for Tahoe's not knowing how to dodge debris and instead running it over and kicking it up into my car!

YAAAAYYYYY!

dohhhh...

Haboob · 09-09-2014, 09:07 AM

I wonder if insurance would cover a clear bra?

Otherwise she's gonna look ugly until I can afford a new one in a couple of years.
