I wish I did something with my Z today. She's home while I'm here in Chicago enjoying their style of hotdogs and deep dish pizza. Need ideas for a dinner meal though.

Today, a couple of things...
1. Saw my life flash before my eyes: driving on way back to work after lunch, 45 mph on highway access road. Dually in front of me practically comes to complete stop to turn right into a Red Lobster parking lot, so I had to stop. Glance in rear view and see about a 1980 full size pick up bearing down on me at 45 mph. Stomping on and off brakes trying to get inattentive driver to look up from whatever she was doing BESIDES driving. Had resigned myself to the rear end impact when I heard her lock up her brakes and glancing up again to rear view saw her stopped about 3 feet from the rear of my car. She catches my eye in the side mirror and waves at me in that "I'm a dumb***, sorry about that" way. Proceeded to work with only about 5 years off my life expectancy! 2. After the recent discussion on locking lug nuts, checked my wheels when I got back to work and, sure enough, locking lug nuts. (Why would the salesman tell me, after all). Didn't have time to search for key, so let it go, then sweated it out all the way home hoping I wouldn't get a flat...yes, I know odds were about a zillion to one! Got home, put on some shorts and began my search...door cubbies, nope; glove box, nope; both seats all the way forward to look behind and under; nope; under z hatchback carpet, stock carpet, in spare tire area; nope; decide to check behind seats again and notice closed compartment behind passenger's seat above self; ding, ding, ding...sure enough, package with regular lugs and locking lug "key"....whew! On a positive note, found and discarded all kinds of little white labels from behind and under seats AND got to know my car a little better! :driving: |
Besides finding my front strut blown, I was able to put on the NISMO conversion today.

I went to R/T tuning in Lansdale PA to get a few things tweaked and a couple pulls on the dyno and got some good results. I'm up to 440whp and 328tq! Also got the 2 and 4 point gtspec chassis braces installed, overall a good car day!
|
Got my CF spats right before the weekend but I was out of town so I couldn't get them on. Will be installing them tomorrow (hopefully), and have some pictures up soon!
|
i finally completely finished the seat install. trimmed the factory juke seat rail cover to fit with a dremel and epoxy'd the height adjustment lever on. there's no height adjustment now, but it did come on the juke. all show, no go :p

Lots of Florida liquid sunshine today and due to a dead battery in the 1500 me and the z are puddle jumping tc is useless in the rain :) :driving:
|
A big splat of bird poop landed on my windshield as I drove under a bridge.
|
First oil change at 1908 miles! I have no idea if the "change oil as soon as possible after break in" is a myth or not, but it sure makes me feel better!:driving:
|
Drove 500 km in the past 12 hours. As ken suggested I actually brought the qd. Used it several times out to ottawa during rest stops to get those caked bugs off my windshield.

Took her to the Pearson airport show with her new wheels and tires:tup:
