Laser. I don't have any detection whatsoever, so even with radar it doesn't matter. But everytime I get a ticket, it seems like laser.

Out 290 West just this side of Dripping Springs. It was Hays county and holy crap were they raking it in. Two motorcycle cops were literally in a constant cycle of ticketing - I pulled over in front of the other cop who already had someone pulled over and before I was finished the other cop had turned around and pulled someone over behind me again.

shit happens

I got out of a ticket (no warning even) for 80 in a 65 on Mopac a few weeks ago, so I couldn't really expect it to happen again. It's been a few years since the last one, so I'll plead no contest, pay the $100 fine, and take defensive driving to keep it off my record plus the insurance deduction.

I just couldn't wait until May 1st. I removed the cover disconnected the battery tender, cranked up the Z and took her out for a spin around the neighbourhood. Wow, how I missed driving the Z.

I just finished using my parents' garage to install my Swift springs. Only took about 3.5 hours all together, and came out looking awesome. The ride feels even more connected now, and smoother even though they are stiffer.

$100??? What a bargain!

My wife went to driving class last night after a $215 ticket for 47 in a 35 here. I think the class was another $60 or $80.

The cop popped her from a new hiding spot that we had noticed and discussed a week previously. She couldn't understand why I wasn't very sympathetic :rolleyes:

Just got done changing out my winter tires. Purchased Continental ExtremeContact DWS06 and so far love the grip and how smooth of a ride it is.
Also since I had my wheels off, I decided to paint the 'nismo' on each wheel to make it a little different. I think the small detail adds a lot to the car.

Been enjoying the random backfires of my Z, twice tonight on the way home from work. One of which ended with a nice yellow flash that I saw in my mirror! Nice. :tup:

Tried twice today to remove the OEM shift knob, without destroying it. Holy fook! It is super tight and I was not able to remove it. So frustrating. Going to try a couple of other methods before I bring out the C-4.

I've heard one of these strap wrenches and a microfiber towel work well.https://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/201...ac1134bf9f.jpg

I tried that method, it did not work for me. I must be one of the lucky winners of the 'sh!t load of loctite' from Nissan awards.
