Wondering what to do next.

Cleaned up the Z after a 400mile cruise with some other Z owners. Noticed I have about 5,000 more rock chips on the bumper and hood. Have to love Nissan paint quality, or lack thereof.

I ordered SPL sway bar end links front and rear today.

Day 3 with no Z. The withdrawal is kicking in. At first, I was OK with the Rogue, now I am starting to notice it's faults. Aside from the weak engine and CVT, it could really use a wheel and tire package, higher spring rates, thicker sways, and more supportive seats. There is also this nasty rattle behind the center console. It sounds like plastic on plastic. It's not the air vents. The car only has 3K on it, I would be none too pleased if I had purchased it.

Still waiting on the bad news that they can't source another TE37. Just give me MSRP for the rim and I will buy a set of M590s...

Yes, There seams to be a requirement for just about everything in California that the legal citizens have to abide by, but if you are here il-legally, Free Reign

Off topic but do you have to remove the abs bracket to remove the clutch master? Couldn't seem to wiggle it out

No, but there's not exactly a lot of room in there. It took me and my fat hands a good bit of time to maneuver the old one out and the new one in. And that damn ABS bracket is the reason we can't use aftermarket CMC :mad:

I guess if you build a race car and refuse to loose you have to accept the consequences. I feel like a complete jackass but at least I won both the dig and a 20 roll. Other guy lost and got the ticket lol. By the way this was not in town and we thought no one else was around at least it appeared that way until we saw the flashing lights. Guess I'll have to bite the bullet get a set of drag radials and leave the itch on the track. Either that or loose my license

You are quite the genius. Street racing posts are positively prohibited here -- something you agreed to when you signed up for the forum. It is also amazingly stupid behavior in the first place. You are a true example to us all.

Reported.

After getting mine done, I just realized how great a mod this is and do not understand why I waited for a long time. Kudos for the DIY. Any plans to put halos while you have it open?
