Today I wanted to remove a little bit of weight from my car. So I removed the winshield washer reservoir and the squirters. Every bit counts in my book.

Now with the the reservoir gone I'm probably going to reroute my oil lines on my next oil change from my cooler to make it look more organized. Along with flipping my thermostatic plate 180 degrees. I have it facing towards the front of the car and want it to face more to the rear which will pull more slack out of it.

Several weeks ago I finally got tired of looking at my silver block off plate for my oil cooler. So I painted it flat black. Looks 100 times better.

One more thing. Last week I took off my Nissan emblems and painted them flat black. I really love this look. Now there's not much left on my car that is out of place. Just the door handles now.

I somewhat experimented with the emblems to try and get a different look from what everyone else is doing. I used a crystal type clear on them to give them a graphite type of look. They are rough to touch. But I like them and there different. If it doesn't work out. Then I'll just change them. But enjoy.

Hey, car is looking great! Nice mods lately, I'm so jealous about that diff!

Thanks. It a great mod to have. I'm currently looking into a cooler for it. I feel I need one for those hard days coming at the track. Plus I'm buying a power steering cooler this month.

nice set of new mods bud! looking good! :tup:

looking good bro... btw pm your number. I was in conyers for the past 2 weeks and covington as well.

did you happen to weigh what you took out ?

PS: couldnt you just have drained the fluid? Im sure the plastic housing weighs less than 2 lbs. The fluid probably ways more

No I didn't. I believe with the resvoir and fluid it would be around maybe 6 pounds. Sparet tire is about 35.
I could of. But I want the room also. About to do a power steering cooler also. But hopefully they'll have a brake duct kit come out.

I love your car but am not a fan of the tail lights at all, it really detracts from the classy feel of the car in my opinion. Is it meant to be more of a matte finish?

Yes it's meant for a matte finish. That's what I like. A dull simple look, just plain. Not classy. I see where your coming from but it's just not me. Thanks for your honesty though. At least you like the other parts.:icon17:

I didn't want to come across as being too critical haha, I love your car... especially the BBK and the LSD! Any big things coming up in the near future for the Z?

NA. Worded just right. That's why were all different. But nothing to big. I do want to have Mike powder coat my calipers though. Mostly trying to stock up on maitence stuff such as brake pads and I want some 2pc rotors when these wear.
