Had a spare hour today. Trying to put the new wheels on, won't go. So there is this pin on the front rotor that Nissan decided was a good idea. Keeps the rear wheels from going on the front.

REALLY?

Put the original back on. Remove pins tomorrow. Assuming I can.

yah, you can unscrew it. should be no different from my 09. :D

I will be so on that. Want the new wheels on.

Played around on my 11' base w/18's,,,thinking 8,10,12mm headed bolt? can't remember.
what i do remember is the 18x9+15 wheel with a 275/40 (11"sec.10"tread) stuck out about an inch beyond fender...wow-took right back off;didn't even try turning the steering wheel.
i've heard the non nismo 19x10+30's will go & sit flush...Nismo 19x10.5+23,haven't seen yet.
bolt will probably look rusty-but will unscrew just fine.

Just finished 60k oil change on the ~Z~ ,,,I wish the tread on rear tires would last as long as on the front. 245/45/18's 31kmiles-still have 7/32", 275/40's 1st set 20k & second set down to 5/32"@11k...could be my heavy foot.Attachment 107278Attachment 107279Attachment 107280Attachment 107281

Washed before my weekly travel...

http://scontent.fsnc1-1.fna.fbcdn.ne...de&oe=567B14F0

no cruising around today, weather is just horrible :shakes head:

I just ordered my a set of groovy retro California plates...

Finally got time to remove drivers seat and cut out the thigh bolsters, reinstalled in car and loving the feeling of no pain in the thigh. Also, had issue with driver window not going up after seat re-install. Searched for a reset on this forum, worked like a charm. Washed, waxed and returned to garage. It was my daily driver for last few weeks. I p/u used Jeep Liberty for DD now.

Anyone using the NGK Iridium Lazer Tip plug? Factory plugs are gonna be changed soon & i'm pretty sure it has Denso's in it......no problems thus far-i know that particular NGK plug is a very good one & cost 2x more.

Bolt on front
 

12mm I recall; comes right out. Easiest part of the job.

104

It's not mine but I did treat it to a couple of coats of Wolfgang Fuzion wax today.

That's glorious

Sun finally came out. Took the Z out in some back roads this afternoon. Good way to wrap up the weekend

There is a major delay getting out of Sacramento and now I am looking at an arrival in Atlanta at 2 AM...

:ugh:

No bueno

LMAO!
Thanks. Pics don't do it justice, the metallic almost looks 3d in the bright sunlight.

Wheels on today. Like many of you said, 12mm, pops that pin in the front rotor right off. Now I need center caps.

Not the greatest shots but took them with the Kindle since my Canon 5DS has not shown up yet.

Wheels look good. Time to address the 4x4 height :tup:

Did nothing special but getting the Pioneer Avic8000NEX and a back up camera installed today.. Kept all steering wheel controls too but instead of going through presets the scroll now changes tuning stations instead but its not like that for when I connect it to bluetooth, or my iPhone music or Pandora.... I will take it back to the shop in a few days unless its an easy solution.. Any ideas guys?!

Took a 4 hour road trip to visit some friends at college. About 30minutes in a mica red 370 pulled aside me and we gave the highway hell for about 120miles until we got called in to the cops.. Lol Good thing they didn't catch me:rofl2::driving:

Can't do anything about the height. Lowering is not allowed in my solo class and I can't afford to go up a class.

Spun bald tires around multiple corners in a fun yet subtle manner with the wife in the car today. No complaints :D :driving:

:tup:Scored a Vintage Set of Tools for My Z:tup:

This weekend the wife and I headed up to Fort Ticonderoga for some history.

made a finisher for my cubby not much but it was a rainy day. and I like it

Nice! :tup:

Filled the tank up today after work today.

Z was thirsty, paid $60 today for around 64 liters(almost 17gal). this is the most liters ive ever had to fill up since ownership :ughdance:

Went to the beach at sunrise for pictures

I painted the rudder for my sail boat. (It folds back in case I hit a submarine)

That's clean. And your Z is okay too

Looks awesome dude!!!

I also put in a cheap auto cargo net, the regular spot only covers ~1/3 of the hatch and the front wall is shallower then on the 350 so I was worried about being beaned by a spaghetti jar in the event of a quick stop (or, ironically,by a can of beans)
10$ bell net from Amazon.

Just finished washing my Z and am reminded how awesome black looks, (for a few days or so).

Another wash, Adam's Guard n gloss, and topped with buttery wax. This never gets old...
