This am was pretty boring driving my Fit to drop off the kid to school. Needed the oil temps high to do an oil change basically. Afterwards went recycling the oil and bought 2 cans of brakcleaner for a great deal. . Came home cleaned the interior and glass on the Fit, washed the car. Also polished out some scratches on the rear door... looks like a shopping cart nailed it. Who cares. LOL. Now finally relaxing.... got a buttload of chores to do in the pm... haha
That sounds like a productive day so far. My 370 will get her first oil change with ENEOS (first using ENEOS) this afternoon. I need to figure out where to drive first to get it all warm and toasty.

I almost forgot.... Good Saturday to you, Mr. Kenchan

Happy Sat, Mr.onzedge. I've seen eneos at some speed shop but never tried it. Any differnet vs the other oils you've tried? got done another set of chores and taking a break. Doesn't look like I can squeeze the motoring in today. Need to take the kids to the stores when the older kid comes back from school today. Maybe tomorrow.....

Blizzaks sounds good. I'm picking up the LM60's in a few days. Which reminds me.... I need to bring the G35C's factory wheels out of storage..

Just got rid of my Mitsu Eclipse. I basically traded it for some mods in the future. I traded it to a custom shop in Buffalo. It was a little too rice for me. I did not do the mods. Here's a couple pics:

Washed and tried to polish out a light door ding

Then drove around for a half hour just to do one simple errand 3 blocks from my house



Neither of those cars were there when I parked but the Z appears to be magnetic
