I got to do a little work on the car this past weekend. Things on the list included ZSPEC radiator cap covers, Z1 radiator reservoir overflow hose set, ZSPEED under shield, and ordering a Fast Intentions CBE!

I’m really digging how my engine bay is coming along:




The under shield installation went pretty smoothly except I did over tighten one of the ‘Jack Nuts’ that go into the aluminum core support, which snapped the bolt used in the tool. Oh well..I just drilled the hole out again. Good thing ZSPEED sends plenty of extras! I am really going to enjoy not having to take the entire tray off for oil changes now.

It was also nice doing the under shield swap at the same time as the reservoir overflow hoses because it provides easy access to the long breather that runs down behind the fans. There are two retaining clips that hold it in place and they do not give a whole lot so getting the old hose out of them from the top would have been challenging as well as putting the new one in.

My Fast Intentions exhaust arrived yesterday! The wait is over!!

Going to do the install this weekend. It worked out pretty nice as I've only had the car out of storage for a week.

Got the car in for a full exterior detail this past weekend. I had a good amount of micro marring and swirl marks accumulated that I couldn't stand seeing when I had the car out in full sun. I also probably didn't use the correct methods for paint care right off the bat. The buffing got virtually all of the marks out of the paint. It looks absolutely gorgeous now. I also had 9H-LDC ceramic coating by Always Dry applied for the ultimate protection.

Got some polished aluminum tanks on the way from CWorksDesign here on the forum. He works for admin tuning, but still does the work. 2012+ style radiator expansion tank and power steering reservoir. Will retain all OEM bungs and cap locations. Seen a couple pics from a set he did for another member and they look great so can’t wait. Very reasonable price for the set compared to the other options out there. Will post pics when they arrive.

The tanks are done and ready to be shipped. My Z1 red hose kit is gonna look nice with these.
