Disassemble my door handles,and did a custom high end carbon wrap. Way better then the stick on carbon overlay you can buy. And even cheeper. And yes I know the weve direction is not consistent.

I got my tire replaced yesterday and, thankfully, the wheel was unharmed by driving on a completely flat tire. It's good to be able to accelerate and turn at speed without the spare on there! Now I just need to clean her up a bit.

Detailed (stage 1 polish and ceramic wax) and lowered on swifts w/ 25 MM H&R trak spacers all the way around.

Much better.

What wrap product did you use?

willdoms · 06-30-2021, 02:48 AM

Just changed the oil and spark plugs.

Let's see, I need to pick up my test print for the IC-7 and play some Tetris trying to get the wiring and the OEM dash all hooked up cleanly. I'm looking into the Flex Fuel Kit from specialty Z so I can get my tuner to enable the feature on my Tune. The E85 here is probably super inconsistent, so having that will help the car run consistently well. I also had an idea for GT3R style ducting for my front bumper. Currently playing with the model and testing my crappy CAD skills.

But in reality, this is all on hold while I study for an upcoming AWS cert test.

Got the inside and outside of the Z cleaned today. After putting on 3,700 miles on in 11 days. From Brownsville Pa. To Grand Rapids Mi. To Rawlins Wy. To home.

Try looking for a distributor for Sunoco gas and racing fuel. Their Re85 is a consistent e85. The cost is surprising reasonable!

I had Fiamm trumpets in my NA Miata for that old school Italian flair. I kinda miss them, so when I finally get to installing an oil cooler, I'll probably grab myself a pair for my ZR and put them in while the front fascia is off.

I forgot to post this a few months back, but I'm proud of it. I used an OEM shifter boot to replace the 7AT plastic shift indicator plate. I also added the manual S-Mode button for future use as a stealthy in-cabin trunk release button (I just need to wire it).

More recently, I had the rear bumper fascia diffuser area wrapped in glossy black vinyl. Nissan should have done this from the beginning on all non-Nismo models.

The EVO-R emblems (front + rear) and debadge was done in June.

Scavenge pumps line are in. Cost of upgrading the BP kit to an oil-lubed, water-cooled turbo setup: $1100 in pump, hoses, and fittings. Not counting the new Boost Lab turbo.

No more flat spots and crazy road noise. New PS4s on all four corners.

SeeThruHead · 07-05-2021, 12:17 AM

Strip washed and waxed with Turtle Wax Hybrid Ceramic/Graphene Paste Wax

Have to wax after sundown since it's so hot out. Can't wait for the sun tmrw to see what it looks like.

First wax after having all my rock chips fixed last week.

Ventruck · 07-08-2021, 08:46 PM

Bought the last Nav DVD like a goofy just in case down the road I want that...OEM touch. Plus the Nav actually has never failed me before on the rare trips I took the Z to places I've never been.

Eh, need to get gas for the map updates. I heard it doesn't literally take 80-90min, but that's gonna be a fun trip.
