Well I am almost done with my Z, so I might need a new project to work on.

Well, with the holiday Monday it looks like I'll actually get a chance to install some of the parts gathering dust in the garage. If all goes well I'll get the bulbs and clutch pedal installed. Hopefully the weather's nice since it badly needs to be washed.

I would love to hear the car and how the 3" tdx sounds with the tt's. Idle, revs, full throttle. etc

Any chance of some vids?

Chuck33079 · 02-13-2013, 07:51 AM

I'll get a few videos whenever I get the car on the dyno. No idea when that may be, since all of my time is being taken up getting the track car ready.

Decided to spend some more money on parts I don't have the time to install. Picked up a bunch of Z1 hoses and an A pillar gauge pod. Maybe I'll get a chance to put some of this stuff on this weekend. I'll settle for enough time and good weather to wash it.

To my great surprise, I actually had a chance to work on the Z this weekend. I put in red silicone radiator overflow and PCV hoses. At this rate, I'll be done with the car sometime shortly before the sun burns out.

pics or ban!

Chuck33079 · 04-16-2013, 02:06 PM

I always forget to take pics when I'm messing around with the car. It's probably whiskey related.

easy method I use is posting everything to instagram. Then using Webstagram - the best Instagram viewer to copy image url links and pasting them here.

Chuck33079 · 04-16-2013, 02:57 PM

I still have to remember to actually take pictures. That's usually where I fail.

Holy crap, I actually remembered to take a picture.

Finally got around to painting the headlights. It looks so much better without all of the silver. Big thanks to VDC Off for all the help. Also threw in LED parking lights and 6k HID bulbs.

A few more crappy iPhone pics. I'll get some better ones after I get off my lazy *** and wash the car.

Ordered a few Evo-R CF goodies for the interior today from the Z Store. Got a call an hour later saying they hope to have their shipment (that was supposed to be there 5/31) in a few days. This is the second time I've gotted burned by Evo-R. I'll give it a few days before cancelling this time. Sweet merciful christ, dude. The key to selling parts is having freaking parts to sell. I'm not mad at the Z Store at all. They can't distribute parts when the manufacturer can't get them out the door.

Dude the headlights turned out sick!!! Makes me want to do mine.....Looking real good buddy!!
