Glad you missed it. We get those over here too in Houston and they are never fun. Sat one out a few years back and will never do it again, I evacuate now.

thanks guys ^^^^

well the weather is still pretty shitty around here.... bi polar heavy rains outa no where and then sun.... i didnt feel like opening up my shop today.... ive been exhausted from projects this week and since the weather has made me especially lazy i told my guys to go catch some rest.... meanwhile i decided to install my top secret fog lamp... top notch may i add... i pulled a brain fart installing it.... at first i looked at it and it came with a male plug and a flash module button and a flash controller.... i looked at it and said... fugin retards didnt seal the lamp itll moisture in no time.... so i sealed it with a **** load of silicone, about 5 mins later i pull out the oem fog and it has the same exact hole

i rushed to pull all the silicone off the top secret one

plugged right in

since it doesnt come with nuts to bolt up you just double stick tape it on to mount, i just added a lil silicone on the top to hold it in place that way its not a mother to uninstall if i ever decided to take it off. i would like to add that top secret NEVER gives instructions LOL its always a guessing game... seriously.... none the less i love them still

it was a easy 3-5min install. Now the part that sucked balls was i had to pull out the oem muffler.... that POS weighs a fugin ton man.... especially if your tryna put it down by yourself and install it by yourself..... lucky thing my neighbor saw me with my legs in the air

and thought something happened to me LOL.... i was actually using my other leg as a leverage to lift the muffler back up so i can bolt it.... my neighbor jumped my fence and helped me... thank god anyways i talk to much so here is the pics.... you only realize the beauty of the Top secret fog lamp up close.... from far most people will think i have a evo-r fog

which isnt bad but you know me... plus the leds on the evor fog look like tiny nipples to me.... the TS fog led looks like the oem taillight leds

i know im picky

here are the pics... its actually pretty bright at night..... and looks real nice im happy with it.... as far as the flashing option... im sure if i ever go to the track i can pop out the socket and press the on position for the f1 flasher mode

on a side note i drove my z without the muffler... made me feel fast but the drone and rasp really killed it for me quick... drove around my block and opened her up a lil... its loud but too loud... didnt sound like music to my ears... it sounded like track noise....

simota1 · 10-19-2013, 05:45 AM

here is a night shot.... although i couldnt capture the beauty of the leds... i captured how freakin bright they are here is a picture...

KaienZ34 · 10-19-2013, 07:13 AM

Looks great man, using a leg to lift the stock muffler in and out is how i do it also.

GaleForce · 10-19-2013, 08:31 AM

Good job Jon. Looking good!

Shadezz · 10-19-2013, 11:48 AM

Very cool! On the other hand...yours would look amazing if you custom built two sets of LEDs into the rear two cut outs above the exhaust as your rear fogs...
Also in the day picture it looks as if your fog light is a bit tilted to the bottom left....could just be the glare too.

On another note...is that the new company truck to the right of you? We never did see pics...lol

Felix 808 · 10-19-2013, 12:04 PM

Holy Crap man!!! With everything you've done you still have the oem muffler.

Great job as always

simota1 · 10-19-2013, 05:58 PM

VDC_OFF · 10-22-2013, 10:22 AM

Now I know why he was so sad when I sold my Top Secret exhaust. Still got some other parts coming for sale. Let me know if you still want those Top Secret side skirts or some Top Secret coilovers.

CarbonSignal · 10-23-2013, 01:50 AM

You wont stop right

Z is looking better and better day by day

im still struggling to sell my steering wheel

im hoping itll sell straight up after i win the bid on ebay for a oem one.... that way no one has to wait and hopefully someone jumps on it already.... but i hope you see how much of a top secret whore i truly am... only thing im missing for the small bits and pieces is a top secret tow hook..... but thats after your side skirts...

i wouldnt mind the aragostas either but i wanna cup kit my whole z... not just the front...

DatsunFTW · 10-23-2013, 08:07 AM
