Oh...what I did I do today with my z? ....drove it.

thanks. it's by QuickSilver. was $170 shipped.

i really liked how it folded up quickly and into the bag.
the dust cover i bought for the G year ago takes forever to get it back in the bag... (too big and clumsy)

thanks, professordave. do you remember Aaron from outmotoring? i still buy their t-shirts and stuff.

i still have a thing for MINI's in the back of my head so i kept the cooper stuff on the wall. i might get a R56 someday... not sure.

My buddy at work has a Cooper S with lots of bolt ons. Not the fastest thing but pretty cool.

yah, it can keep up with most V6's out there with some driving technique. the car is very fun to drive...but the electronics on MINI's in general is wat kinda kills the fun with the warranty crap...and the fit and finish on the exterior panels is like tolerance of 1cm.

Whew...thanks for the reply, thought since I have been MIA from the forum lately that I had become the outcast and shunned on.

Gonna add the QuickSilver Car Cover to my X-mas wish list, good to know how effortless it is to stuff back in the bag.

Today.... I had to find a way to procrastinate and NOT do my informative speech for class tonight so I decided to try to fix my exhaust leak.
Drivers side after 10k miles

Passengers side exhaust leak

...and my attempt to fix

SPOHN · 10-27-2011, 11:14 AM

I looked at my car today thinking at least I still her after ending a nearly four year relationship with my girlfriend. It sucks!

christian370z · 10-27-2011, 11:17 AM

Nice footloose! I need to figure out my exhaust leak too and it sounds like it is coming from the same area your leak was.

SPOHN · 10-27-2011, 11:21 AM

I think I heard a hiss sound from mine the other day. Probably why it seems louder. But I love that.

Footloose301 · 10-27-2011, 11:27 AM

The hiss when letting off the throttle is normal. Mine you could hear when accelerating and it was so obnoxious during a cold start. I finally moved out of my parents house and got a townhouse with a two car garage last week, and I'm sure my neighbors hated the exhaust leak more than I did. I had to do something about it.

Footloose301 · 10-27-2011, 11:32 AM

Also, last night I noticed that Sutherlin Nissan had a used 40th for sale so I decided to see how dramatic my subtle mods stacked up against one completely stock. It made me appreciate my car and the work I've done.

SPOHN · 10-27-2011, 11:32 AM

Yea that's about when I heard it was when letting off the throttle. No biggie.

kenchan · 10-27-2011, 11:46 AM

happy Thursday, mr. onzedge!

today not much car action but some music software for my mac is coming.

i bought the macbookpro as my photography computer...now it's running dual HD's inside (via removing optical drive and replacing esata 2.5" HD) and so now, it's 1/2 photography, 1/2 music.
