What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

My Z has been parked in my garage since July. Can't drive a manual with a bummed arm. So I've been throwing parts at it. Now I'm in the group

My Z has been parked in my garage since July. Can't drive a manual with a bummed arm. So I've been throwing parts at it. Now I'm in the group buy for the vented hood inserts.

I was interested in the Vented hood insert myself, until I caught a local deal on a VIS Carbon Fiber Hood. It was all oxidized and fogged up from being out in the sun so I had my buddy clean it up and give it a new clear. It goes exceptionally well with the 40th edition paint and wheels, as I expected. The look is way more aggressive now! Yea, I know, the headlights need some love next.

Also put in the AAM CAI. The car definitely sounds better, and louder. There is a real nice resonance now. Had the car tuned shortly after and really loving it all! Ill post tune results and more in my own thread soon.

My new SpeedHut 150 psi oil pressure gauge should be here next Tuesday. Now I can finish putting the interior back together.

I just received my combo oil pressure/ water temp gauge today.

I'll be pairing it up with this gauge.

How high does the oil pressure gauge go to?

I seen your earlier post on the 4 way gauge.

I'm not sure what the max pressure is on that gauge, I'd have to check with the manufacturer.

Mine will be here Monday, but the Autotech oil pressure sensor adapter is backordered and the company won't contact me back about a refund or getting the product out so I'm a bit stuck at the moment.
