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

Deja vu all over again ...

Pedal to the floor. Pretty sure a clutch cylinder blew. Not sure which one. Both are heavy duty and essentially brand new with a couple hundred miles on them

I've learned my lesson. Towed directly to the shop. Will let Kevin diagnose it and then buy whatever part(s) he needs

Got rear ended 2 days ago at a car wash, guy was trying to reverse out of a parking spot near there and he didn't see me.

I know, never have i been at an automatic car wash before that day. Just being lazy and with having well water at home, sometimes it's the only choice if the car is too dirty.

I guess i got what i deserve for going there.. Thank god he didn't reverse into my quarter panel, but just took out a tail light and slightly dented the rear bumper. Got an estimate at a nearby body shop and he paid me in cash. I was almost thinking about changing my bumper to the Nismo rear but decided against it and will be replacing the tail light only and saving the rest for tires/ parts later on. Rear bumper looks fine unless you are just less than 6 feet away, Don't care that much really.

If anybody is selling a right hand tail light for cheap, i'd appreciate it.

WTF is it with people these days? No common courtesy for people backing out of parking spaces or even basic common sense when driving; just get in, fire it up, put it in gear and romp on it...... asshats....

Ghostvette · 07-28-2016, 08:28 AM

On topic now......

Bought some K&N drop ins and Z1 Post MAF tubes from TBATT....

JAR, you need an exorcism.... to find that f'n gremlin that is loose in your car.....

Rumor control has it that it is black and white, about a foot tall and is only edible with Gates barbecue sauce....

Went to check up on the progress.

Skirts are painted. Bumpers are going into the booth. They spent a week on the skirts in order to get the best match.
