:iagree:

Made oil changes easier since i learned about this :tup:

Got compliments regarding my clean Z. Co workers asked what i did differently, i said nothing just washed her yesterday, little do they know my baby is shining a lot more since i detailed here last weekend :happydance:
But guess this means they didnt notice here all of last week :ugh2:

Contemplating a part out and trade in.

Got her even more dirty today. The dang rain just won't stop. She has turned from black to a dirty gray. Uuck.

It's there. I promise. It's the four rear most bolts. That should allow the flap to drop down. You'll need something to hold it out of the way of the oil flow.

If you are willing to go down on power you should look at the 2016 MX-5. Looks like a mini Jaguar F Type.

I put around 140 miles on the Z Sunday and the weather was beautiful. But so far the only days this week I can drive the Z, it's too cold and rainy to drive the Z. :icon17:

Hope next week is better weather for Z cruising!

Just showing solidarity in hating them like everyone else... :icon17:

Actually i was joking, never driven one so cant comment. In terms of looks, put some wide wheels on and lower it and the car looks pretty good. However, i will admit that i hate the fact that i have to see them in every car magazine. :ugh2:

Bananaz 03-25-2015 11:29 PM

Changed trans and diff fluid by myself on the floor :)

Feels much smoother now, I love it.

I had Redline in both before this change but even changing to the same oils I had last time..feels much better.

The smell of the old diff fluid partnered with the gunk and shavings stuck to the drain bolt never fail to make you wanna puke.. :roflpuke2:

I ordered a set of f14's 9.5 +20 and 11 +15 deep and super deep concave with a brushed turquoise finish wrapped in 255/35 and 305/30 Hancook v12's last week. Super stoked to see how they turn out with that color!

Just ordered the stuff for my diff and tranny fluid change as well. Not looking forward to the smell, but can't wait to get rid of these notchy shifts and diff squeak on these cool mornings
