Just check the post-office website and the spoiler is on its way to my mechanic's place today, "out for delivery"

Depends on the weather, most likely will put on both the spoiler and spacers no later than next Wed.

Might not be able to do it this week cos I might have to leave the car to the dealer to have them replace the soft top cos the rubbing issue.

Good Morning Mr.happythebud, Mr.onzedge, Mr.Fire, Mr.ZMan8, Mr.TerribleOne, Mr.Papo AND Everyone!!!!!

Mr.kenchan... Good Day... Where are you????

Ninja good day...

love it.

Morning/afternoon all

Stuck in my basement sanding drywall mud. Hopefully I'll get out for a quick drive later.

Not a good start to my day. Gotta stay positive so I don't lose my sh*t

That sucks. I sent you some rep to turn your day around.

Damn man.

It's one thing to scrape your own stuff, but it's entirely another whe nsomeone else does it. Are there any surveillance cameras near where that happened? Sorry for the way your day started.

I dont understand why it so hard for people to park or pull out of a parking spot. My girlfriends car had been hit a dozen times in parking lots since we moved to Vegas several years ago. Ive been lucky with my cars but my work truck seems to get dinged all the time. Casino parking lots are far worse than any other lot, too many old people that shouldn't be driving or too many drunks. I try not too drive the Z in the evenings when most of the lot accidents happen but its too much damn fun not to drive.

I almost always park away from everyone. This doesn't protect me from malice of course.

Good Afternoon Mr.GaleForce

The weather is very nice today, I remember there's a very nice route connecting Coburg and Port Hope along the lake side. Hope you can take your Z for a spin..

** Update, my mechanic just called me 1/2 hour ago telling me the spoiler has arrived!!

FAQ's Engine Cooling Systems

So is this for trucks or cars?

happytheman · 04-02-2012, 02:57 PM

Trucks, cars, motorcycles or whatever. It's expensive, but it's supposed to prevent corrosion and makes your hoses last longer. Some claim lower oil temps and better fuel economy.

Never heard of it, someone else will have to chime in on this.

Dealership just called. New trans already installed!!! Going to pick her up now

I cant believe how fast this process was!

kenchan · 04-02-2012, 03:20 PM

our cars were designed to use the coolant that came in the engine so i'd use that.

plus, these newer coolants only need replacement like once every 6yrs or something crazy. my G's had to be replaced 4yrs in and from there every 2yrs drain and fill.
