What did you do with your Z today II

Skeeterbop · 01-22-2012, 07:18 PM

Thanks for all the props on the photos. I gotta give credit for the ideas on how to position them to Darionlear. I just had to get the photos exposed properly lol.

Congrats on the new wheels alcheng!

Shovelled around mine.

Cool!

Finally go with Vossen, I can't find a Mash-Convave style with the size I want, both Avant Garde and Vertini have the style I like but the width for the rear has to be 11, which is too wide for me.

And this Vossen looks pretty good on a Z roadster, mine is white, so I will go for the matte-silver with F19X8.5 and R19X10, pair with Continental ExtremeContact DW. It's my DD in Summer, I think it is a decent setup.

Great pictures Skeeter! I just washed the Z, cleaned the exhaust and dressed the tires but I am cringing at the weather forecast for rain tomorrow. At least it'll rain on a clean car!

kenchan · 01-22-2012, 09:05 PM

yep, rain on a clean car is definitely more healthy than rain on dirty car. much less contaminant bondage after the rain dries and sun beats on the paint.

cleaned up the DIY steering lock a little bit as it was getting ikky...

just installed gtspec 4 point. Will install the 2 point when I install the KW coilovers. Couldn't find my jack and jack stands! I had to use the crappy jack in the spare so it took forever to do!

Pics, please.

this is all I got. Very easy to install if you don't use the crappy jack. You can see it back there on the left. The bar is hanging from the 2 furthers bolts, I bough this 2nd hand so the 2 new front bolts didn't come with them.

FYI The size is M12 x 1.25 thread pitch. The length I needed they didn't sell so I used 2 washers and 1 locking washer with some blue lock tite.

woah, scissors jack...
