Rain and rain this weekend. Looks like my Z is going to take a break this weekend...
We had a very stubborn stagnant heavy t-storm last night. No issues with flooding at my place but man that was A LOT of rain!! Almost 3"
Stay dry today. I miss summer thunderstorms. We just don't get them here.

My Z work planned for the weekend:
  • Wash and interior clean the 370
  • Cabin air filter 370
  • Install carbs/intake and tune on the 240

That's about it. No motoring planned.

I've got a weird clunk coming from my driver side rear coilover area... going to pull the wheel off and check it out. I hope a bolt just came loose...

Other than that... I ain't doing sheeeit! First relaxing weekend in a long time!

I've been in boston since Thursday, I love it here with my Z! Driving in tunnels is awesome. Car sounds so sick in there! Lots of fun.

Is going to be over 100ºF today and is only 10:40AM and is already over 91ºF.

Plus I have to complete all my college class assignments since this is the last week of class and during the week I'm too busy.

So the Z won't see any action until I come back from vacation in Aug.

Sounds like fun. I feel better I'm not the only one not motoring this weekend.

Dang I'm jealous not having tunnels here. Tunnels are a blast to downshift.

Cabin air filter.... about how often are we supposed to change this? I had my Z since October, with about 1800 miles total Is it more mileage or time dependent?

Both. Mostly depends on how much crap has accumulated in your car. If it is sitting and getting dusty on the inside, I'd swap it out.

Realistically, you probably never actually need to change it though.

I am not even sure the z comes with one from the factory. I am going to find out. There is a DIY thread about it. I am also unsure about how long you go before changing. Sorry, I guess this reply is on the "not too informative" side.
