Ex Marine jet mech. I was stationed at Cherry Point NC. I'm at the fire hall we've had multiple MVA's today and getting the guys coffee and called to get hot food.

It was a nice day out, so I finally got a chance to wash it (after 3000 miles and many rainstorms). I had forgotten it was this color

Took it for a short drive and took some pics:

Turns out I need those new tires more than I thought..

The front's are still OK. How many miles do the the stock tires usually last? These will be 14K.

14,000 on the rears was about what I got. I still had plenty on the fronts, but replaced all 4 anyway. I was actually able to sell my fronts on craigslist also. I hate throwing away stuff that has useful life remaining.

BTW: Sharp looking Z.

They seem to be rare, but they are still out there. Good luck with your search, as that is most important. I had a great one that treated my car like it was his own, then I moved. I think I have one here, but only time will tell with my next project.

happytheman · 01-28-2012, 11:38 PM

What method did you use to determine whether one shop was better than another?

Fire · 01-29-2012, 12:00 AM

Hey Happy I wonder if those where the ones I sent back? They didn't fit my vert. I still haven't heard if anybody has been able to use them on a vert. As far as finding a shop good luck I haven't found much around me.

Fire · 01-29-2012, 12:26 AM

daemon you will love the evo-r blades I do

The only thing I'm going to do is plasti dip the first few inches behind the front wheelwell as they get sandblasted esp. with the wheel spacers.
