I wish but no I didn't get anything recorded on the dragon.

He is literally standing at the ledge of Fontana Dam one wrong step he falls off the dam.

We then have to save the camera first ( the photos of the Z are priceless) then save Datsun! Lol

Just kidding! We love you man!

Great shots.

That's dedication to the cause!

So a little while since I have posted but the Z is getting tucked away for the rest of the month and most of July. Going on vacation to Europe for 4 weeks! Flying into Paris and taking a rental all the way up through the Netherlands, as far east to Poland to visit family after 5 years and down through Slovakia and into Italy. Going to be making some great visits to Porsche, Mercedes, the Nurburgring, Ferrari and Lambourghini. Will be taking loads of pics.

The Z was resting after Zdayz so I did not have a chance to pull through with some flushing and replenishing of brake, diff, clutch, and engine fluids. My plan after the trip is to finally purchase an Akebono kit with slotted rotors and stillen brake cooling kit (or stoptech if possible) and a VLSD. Going into full performance mode! New exhaust, intake, manifold, TB's, and shooting for an EcuTek tune! Big plans as far as NA power. She dyno-ed at 275hp with nothing really but an exhaust so we need to get this sorted asap! Although my stock tips may be deceiving for the slightly fabricated exhaust, we need a big one back there (yes one nice and shiny titanium exhaust tip

).

I took off and sold my prior Seibon Sr Style lip and talked to the guys at aerojacket to send me a fresh one. Feels too silly without one.

Lots of more track days incoming so suspension will be a priority as well. Want to get myself some sway bars and bushings. Although it may be taking forever due to the cost of all of this craziness... the rest of 2015 is looking fairly bright for myself. Let's hope it pulls through

Looks good. The white letters are intriguing. Wondering how long it stays white and clean. Let the rest of us know what the upkeep is like. As for your trip, enjoy. Europe has a lot going for it. Many places to go to. I have Spain, Holland, and Czechoslovakia on my next go to list.

3 weeks on them so far. Haven't budged at all and have been shiny white since day one. I have already made a few highway trips as well. TredWear is good stuff.

I haven't been in Czech for a very long time. It will be nice to be back

carlitos_370z · 06-25-2015, 07:16 AM

Excellent work, looks great!
Just finished all 28 pages; can't wait to see what else you do.

Happy vacation!

DatsunFTW · 07-03-2015, 06:02 PM

I really appreciate it thank you! I hope all goes well and the performance gains will be great! I also was looking into picking up a 240z. We will see what happens
