No, I hate the ramps. But if they work for you - more power to you. I wound up putting a jack under the cradle. What a mess.

I've been waiting my whole life to get a hoist at home. Some day.


Dude. The engine is noticeably smoother now. I don't know if it's because of the clean oil, or better oil. Maybe just breaking in a little. It's so f'n nice now.

what oil u useing?

Valvoline full synthetic. :tup:

got it all in time to change it :)

Hey guys, I've put just under 500 miles on my car since changing the oil for the first time and using Amsoil SS0W-30. Hasn't used ANY oil at all. I changed the oil for the first time at 3,000 miles and I can't lie about it. I drove the car pretty hard during those miles. I used 1 quart of oil during those 3,000 miles. And I still drive my car hard now. So what I guess I'm trying to say is that the Amsoil isn't as volatile as most oils. I will keep checking it and keep everyone informed along the way....

try red line iv heard good things.. just waiting on puttin g it in mine now

Under Body Cover
 

The under body cover is actually an aerodynamic part. It minimizes the under body turbulance which causes lift. G-coupes, and Z's are zero lift designs. Most high end sports cars have them front and back.

You only have to remove 4 bolts and fold back the cover. The drain plug and filter are easily reached.

i received the Rhino Blitz Ramp (8000) today. I was excited however i realized there is no way the Z could go up the ramp without the ramp scraping the bottom plastic aero deflector. Even if i remove the aero deflector, the bottom fender looks like it has only 1/4 inch clearance and i have a feeling the fender would get scraped too if i drive the car up.

Now i'm bummed.

ramps
 

i think i have the same ones, what i'm planning to do is use wooden boards to go up the ramps. Haven't got a chance to change my oil yet since it's been raining on and off here in san francisco.

Oh noes, more redline showed up at my doorstep! :icon17:

You may be wondering, why K&N again? well, they owed me these filters. I ordred these from K&N last month but thanks to the UPS driver who doesn't care about the rain forecast, left the box outside by the front door :rolleyes:. The box and filter soaked in heavy rain :shakes head:. So, I may be utilizing these filters during next few changes. Then, I'll go back to Purolator.

They delivered it to the Wrong House :mad:










J/k :tup:

What's wrong with K&N oil filters? :ugh2:

I think the purolators are a bigger capacity filter.

OHHHhhhhhhh.... purolators are oil filters... I was thinking about the shipping company called purolator..... my bad :bowrofl:
