Went to give the Z a hug, she's been in heated storage since December. Told her that I saw two skunks this morning that have come out of hibernation a lil' early.
She was impressed, but knows here in new
england she will keep sleeping till april.

The long wait continues.

started modifying the Nismo bumper a little bit. Can't say I cared too much for the plastic grille that was molded into the bumper

mishuko 02-24-2016 07:10 AM

plan list for this spring

- CSC/MSC swap + oil change
- tune
- oil change before zdayz
- zdayz
- new tires after zdayz and oil change
- put back into storage because it'll be winter again

Got A few parts in today; so I began disassembly of open diff & I know it's been a while since I removed a carrier.....looking for a bolt that holds the cross pin in & found a roll pin instead/ ok.....punched it out & now (scratching my head) am wondering if ring gear bolts have to come loose to slide cross pin out?? Stub axles have to come out before carrier does?
Without doing a bunch of research- anyone know answer to this? Open A/T diff Attachment 112184Attachment 112185Attachment 112186

Notice how close spider cross pin is to ring gear/ it won't slide past it to remove clips (if that's what's in there?)Attachment 112196

Hey is that the Evo-R cover, or replacement? If Evo-R, how's the fit, CF weave pattern, quality overall? I'm thinking of getting their cover. Thanks

nightfury 02-29-2016 08:26 AM

It's evo-r and it's just a thin layer of carbon on top . It's actually not bad quality and the patterns are great . It's a good price for what you get but be carful of the stereo one it's very thin and bends very easily . I have their windows switches as well . So it's a good buy for a quick and easy carbon look inside :)

kenchan 02-29-2016 11:23 AM

mishuko 02-29-2016 01:16 PM

so I took the car out for a quick spin yesterday.

I seem to have piqued the interest of a neighbor few doors down who has a G and he ripped it around the block a few times.

I guess sitting in first revving up to 5k on the way back was a cat call for him ahahha

kenchan 02-29-2016 01:47 PM

Got areal nice compliment yesterday. Business man type guy, in a company car, rolled down his window and ask me if this is a factory color. I told him yes, Black Cherry. He says "gorgeous! And a gorgeous car!".
Thanks company man!

kenchan 02-29-2016 02:46 PM

mishuko 02-29-2016 02:48 PM

I have seen a convertible BC... I don't think the soft top really did it justice :(

Z_ealot 02-29-2016 06:43 PM

Changed out my front rotors and brake pads this weekend for stoptech slotted rotors and stoptech brake pads....just have to say, holy hell what a difference in brake pedal feel and stopping power! Lol
