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

Zingston · 03-13-2018, 05:33 PM

I was told by an older guy yesterday in Venice FL that I had a nice Porsche... again. I just smiled and said Thank You.

Buzzkill247 · 03-13-2018, 07:41 PM

First set of parts landed today. Was just the teaser package lol Z1 breather silicone for PVC resonator delete, a fancy Z1 oil plug (gotta have a bit of Dino in the car), replacement diff drain plug, and a fill plug (just in case) with gaskets for all.
Tomorrow.... FI 34 row oil cooler lands and Stillen G3 CAI. Then Thursday... the holy grail... order 1820 FI R-HFC and 18"R-TDX with C.F. tubes *drool*
Sunday... Sunday is fun day when it all gets installed and fluid swaps happen!
Anyone wanna buy drop in K&N and post MAF mishi silicone tubes? lol

My Z now harnesses the power of the Sun...

And that's with tinted windows!

The double sided tape that come with these LED's is useless. Park the car, come out to go home and the LED's are laying on the lenses. I need to figure out some better, stronger tape, because it looks like @$$ seeing them just laying on the lenses.

Oh, and a mini-Sun in the back...

That's bright!

falicfr · 03-14-2018, 10:51 AM

I had the same problem with the light panel not staying mounted. I purchased very thin 3M double sided tape and have not had any issues.

StevenSlice · 03-14-2018, 04:47 PM

Pat its hood and hope it the best as i think it has the Steering Lock issue

DeliriousClam · 03-14-2018, 08:25 PM

Chopsz Jesus Christ why so many LEDs?

Buzzkill247 · 03-14-2018, 09:08 PM

LOL! I didn't design the darn things. In all honesty though, I like a lot of light, and I like cool operating, energy efficient lighting. I like functionality. With that being said, I think they could have been just fine and plenty bright enough with half as many LED's on those boards... And better double sided tape. Right now, they're still laying on the lenses instead of sticking to the housing. I'll fix that this weekend though.

Too distracting to drive while all of that's going on. Plus I don't want to get my shift knob dirty. That's why I found a nice secluded parking lot covered with tall bushes and trees. Just park back in there, turn the car off then back on (so the DRL aren't on - Yes, been there and done that) and do much more than just "roadhead". LOL

Funny, but true story! And a lot more than once!

JARblue · 03-15-2018, 09:44 AM

I spent a good bit of time in parking lots over the last few days. Driving it to work plus fun put 47 miles on it since this weekend. I filled her up this morning and she took over 5 gallons of gas. I love being able to quantify my Z enjoyment with single digit MPGs

Took mine out for a nice cruise at sunset today.

Wound up seeing an old Z for sale so I stopped to look it over

1987 with t tops. It was pretty good but not perfect...

Zingston · 03-16-2018, 10:11 PM

From the pics, not bad for an 87. And T Tops!!! Nice.

Leingod · 03-16-2018, 11:16 PM

Any idea if these are just cf rear spats instead of frp? I can't find any more info on them. Just curious if they're actual spats or additions to the frp spats.
