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

Ben370 · 06-26-2016, 02:48 PM

Installed the Z1 oil cooler and did an oil change.

Raidernation · 06-26-2016, 03:32 PM

Installed the Z1 silicon post MAF intake. What should have taken 45 minutes took me almost 2hrs to do. I dropped a pair of pliers in the engine bay that took 45 minutes to fish out. I literally used a fishing pole to get them out.

The sleeves were good to go. The only thing I had to trim was the passenger side breather hose. I trimmed about 5/16" off it.

changed my rotors and brake pads this weekend. wasn't as easy as i thought it would be. it was a pita to take the two bolts out holding the brakes in place. but after that everything else went smoothly.

actually if you're only replacing the pads it is really simple to do... shouldn't take more then 10 min to do per wheel. but sure i'll fly out to canadia, you cover the airplane ticket

So things like this happen to other people too. I thought I was special.

You actually advertise that you are a Raiders fan? It is like enjoying Justin Bieber music. if it good for you, then OK -- you just should keep it to yourself.

Didn't do anything except drive it a bit today. Finalized a Stillen order too, I guess that counts.

oh ya what I came in here to post... I got my exhaust put on today...
Top Speed
axel back
... really happy with everything, paid 450 cash for the exhaust.. fit like a glove on the install, the sound is great, no drone on the hwy and sounds great when I step on it. Was impressed with the build quality as well, all in all cant go wrong for the price... as many of you know top speed made it for the nismo version so the tips stick out an inch or so extra. Before having it on my plan was if I liked everything else about it I would get it fab'd later but honestly doesnt even bother me.
Would recommend to others for sure...
