What did you do with your Z today

Sat in it and talked to the navigation lady to program in some destinations for tomorrow's road trip. Sometimes I go to places that are too new to find on

Sat in it and talked to the navigation lady to program in some destinations for tomorrow's road trip.
Sometimes I go to places that are too new to find on the navigation system, so I like to make sure before I leave the house.

Took my Z for a short ride. Went into town to buy new wipers. I had to replace them because while putting on my black gauge overlay I hit the wiper stalk and the passanger wiper got broken by the car cover that I left partially on. Enjoyed the ride and the looks. Turned a whooping 1400 on the odo. Oh I did the paddle shifter mod installing small bumpers to the back side of them to reduce the play. A good day. My trunk still has the 4 holes for the spoiler, have to get my spoiler painted so I can install it.

When and did my alignment today,I put Swift Springs,SPC front & rear camber arms.
My car was really out of spec after these mods,but I could not have gotten it back in to spec's without the arms.to SPC for making a good quality part.

Washed salt off my Z, blow dried her wheels and suspension, brakes and a quick wipe down. Finally got rid of the light coat of salt caked in the wells.

Going to motor her tomorrow.

Still waiting for my Swift springs to arrive. I am hoping to keep the front camber in as close as possible to my current set up without hasving to shell out $$ for front control arms. Already have the rear camber kit w/toe bolts. SPC does make some good front control arms. Had them on the 350z and they fixed my 1.3' drop from H&R spprings. If I get close to OEM w/o control arms, I will be happy.

Be interested in seeing your alignment spec printout sheet. Maybe post it up on the Swift spring thread.

Gave it a half-a**ed wash with the pressure washer and leaf blower.
I still haven't got the hang of drying the car with the leaf blower, but it's definitely great for getting all the water out of the crevices around the lights, mirrors, etc.

Loaded it up with some crap.
Road trip after I eat something.

Gave her a wash last night and covered her up. I said so long this morning at 0400, went to the airport and flew to Atlanta for Microsoft Convergence. A long lonely week is ahead with no Z.

Hand washed her and sat in my driveway soaking in the 80 degree Western PA sunshine, while admiring my red Z and enjoying the doo-wop music playing on her stereo. Then took wifie for groceries and got 5 thumbs up from folks in and around the mall parking lots. Life's good...

Took the Z yesterday to go look at Porsches and Loti (Lotuses?). She forgave me for looking at the 'other girls' and still knows she's the one for me.
