Just 1 more week and I'll be able to drive the Z again

That is, assuming I've buttoned everything back up by then (highly doubtful lol).

Lol i scheduled my last maintanence for end of october. Oil change only. Next year ill do a change out of brake and clutch fluid to rbf 600

Also getting quotes for a new exhaust for next year.700 km and its too quiet. Lol damn. Motordyne or fast intentions are my current.

JARblue · 09-10-2018, 02:20 PM

I've got an FI exhaust with one CF can that is busted up pretty good. The rest of the pipes are good though. I bet FI could fab up some straight tail pipes for a few hundred. It'll be much louder. You know, for your mom

How many people know about them?

My first car ('55 Chevy) and possibly a couple of other cars I had were equipped with the vacuum wipers.

Flooring the accelerator would bring the wipers almost to a halt--maybe that was a safety feature to encourage safer driving in inclement weather

**** Bob waited a month and half for Tony to fabricate straight pipes and then he told them they were too busy.

lol true... he should have petitioned on the forum for more interest. I want some. I bet Tony would be less hesitant if it weren't just one-off production and he were able to do a batch of them.

Neighbor had an old truck that had the vacuum wipers. I remember as a kid riding in it when it was raining. Thought it was the funnest thing.

Oh yeah, that's right. I still haven't gotten to hear them. Bastard brought his new GT-R to ZDayZ instead of the Z

Leingod · 09-11-2018, 05:44 PM

Got the new ramps in. These are the 72 inch RR's. Cheaper than 67's + extenders.

Pearl zed · 09-13-2018, 10:27 PM

Found this old pic.....

JARblue · 09-15-2018, 03:43 AM

Found some time to work on the Z... installed Z1 2-piece rotors

*note* an offset box end wrench does wonders as a makeshift brake pad spreader

Also working on Stebel 300Hz truck horn install. Horn is mounted - just need to wire it up.

sp911 · 09-15-2018, 05:23 AM

on the way home within 15 minutes i saw a 350 and 2 370's which is rare to see that many in the same day.
