What did you do with your Z today II

Hey everyone! I was able to remove the OEM knob a few minutes ago without destroying it! Unfortunately, the 1 o ring that was provided from PWJDM was not enough

Hey everyone!

I was able to remove the OEM knob a few minutes ago without destroying it! Unfortunately, the 1 o ring that was provided from PWJDM was not enough so there's a little sag. I think I have a few spare ones lying around that I'll try to use to fix it. But man it looks and feels good!

And David... I'm straight up stealing those nismo rims at the meet wednesday lol

Good job. I did not get enough of the PWJDM-provided o-rings either so I improvised with a few spare garden hose rubber washers.

Took a little cruise in the Z this am. Right after I pulled in to a gas station, a soccer mom in a rav4 pulls up next to me (blocking traffic through the tiny station's parking lot) and asks if I'm driving a GTR. I thought hard about saying yes.

Porsche maybe, but a GTR?

I've actually gotten the wife to start thinking about getting a new car so I can drive the MDX and keep the Z garaged. I discovered my pot hole incident broke all the retaining clips in the wheel wells. The bottom of the bumper is now loose.

We are looking at a 2012 CRV, but the Juke is starting to grow on me. For the price. it's a great deal.

Z-wise, I installed my EVO-R carbon fiber B-pillar covers. Perfect match to the ducktail.

I'm done modding!




For now.

Next time when the soccer mom see a real GT-R or a Porsche, she would argue that it is a Z....

Haha, well I have two wheel locks on the last wheel because of the whole fiasco, so you'll probably only get away with 3 of them

Went to Caffeine and Octane this morning. Came home check my brakes, bleed them, bleed the clutch, and did a full inspection of car. Ready for the track next week.
