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

Drove it to the shop to do some boring non-Z stuff.

I thought the same thing, but then I noticed there is text, hence the picture is indented. He said he drove it to the shop to do non-Z stuff. So it is a qualifying post ... but I do think those non-Z pictures should be in a SPOILER tag :tiphat:

Fair enough. :icon23:

50/50 shot to choose the correct thread. 100% chance to get the wrong one. In any case, that's what I've done with it thus far today. Mods take it down if it helps the old feels.

Just yanking your chain.

If you look carefully there is a vg30dett on that engine stand. Vindicated!! Hahah

Swift Springs in the front and rear installed. Car rides great! Went to install the H&R Spacers and was sent the wrong product. Box indicates that they're correct, but we believe they're for the Toyota platform. The spacers don't even fit over the hub and the studs have a different pitch.

Now I gotta ride around for a week with sunk in wheels :(

Left house early this morning to enjoy a spirited ride through our mountains and twisties....still grinning

Palomar?

Palomar, Warner Springs, Banner Grade :driving:

Friday AM is definitely a good day to do this. :driving:

Yea, I agree, weekends are way too busy. The roads were wide open, didnt start encountering traffic until until close to noon. Got home around 4-ish. Finished our drive along the 101. Glorious day in the Z.

Went on the drag strip for my first time. I sucked but it was fun. Just gotta get used to it

After I put a new battery in mine, it slowly over 1 day came out of limp mode,and hasn't returned to it the few months.
They seem to go into that mode after sitting awhile

Just filling up with some 93 Octane.

Picked up some whiteline differential bushings. Time to get a quote for Spring time maintenence

Ouch... :eek:

:shakes head::shakes head::shakes head:

welp, at age 19, i thought my life was about to come to an end tonight. i believe it was a toyota camry that failed to use their signal when switching into my lane which caused me to brake harder than i ever want to and swerve into oncoming traffic. luckily, nobody was close enough to cause any damage to my vehicle. as i cruise into a parking lot(still facing oncoming traffic) i regained my senses and proceeded to meet my gf. God is good

It's dangerous out there. You're certainly lucky! Yesterday I was traffic waiting at a red light and the car in front of me starts rolling backwards. I had to honk my horn to get her attention just before she hit me. Dumb ***!

She had to finish the text before she hit the brake...

Got my rear tires changed after measly 25,000 miles. I'm now running BF Goodrich G-Force COMP 2 A/S with 255/45/18. I'll see how this goes....

Spotted a red Z at school. Didn't know you could make a Z sound like a honda with a fart can...
:ugh2:

They grip beautifully....but lasted about 20,000 lol

Bumpers are finally painted. Maybe done this week? :happydance:

Received my FLEX Z coil overs yesterday. already have ARP splitter, wheel is going to powder coating Satin black. Will try to wrap hood and roof this weekend. hoping to post pic by next week.

Went out after work tonight and picked these Nismo wheels up. Traded my base 18's and some cash for them. And there's the old Z with my 18's on it now. Also picked up a pair of rear wheel spats that I'm going to have painted the same Gun Metallic, then install them.

I had to run this tire as an emergency tire from my way home. It's not as grippy as re11.

It actually sucks because it broke grip way too early and didn't even convey just bam tail starts moving laterally.

I got firehawk indy 500 on the rear and it cost less. Grip is okay.

Then again it depends on your driving habits and what you're looking for grip vs longevity

Picked up the car from the body shop after getting the handles painted. I think it really pulls the car together.

Edit: Pic is way too big lol

This week the Z received a new steering rack (warranty), new driver side airbag, new driver side curtain airbag, new driver side airbag module, new passenger side airbag, and a new airbag diagnostic module (all airbag components covered by Nissan under good-will coverage). Sad that I didn't have time to pick it up and drive it to the USGP this weekend.

A quick photo shoot this evening with the sun setting.

Installed AAM Short tails last night. Had some slight fitment issues, so going to tweak that but other than that pretty happy with the mod for the price!

Found my car in the Nissan facebook page.

Ask them to pay you for using your car for advertising. LOL
