but weather's not listening. while im happy it's going to be dry the next few days since i washed my G a few hours ago, i still want rain to wash off the salt before i pull out my Z. and the first rain forecasted is sunday...

hope it comes on Friday instead...

Yeah, that's a good point! Damn. I did see white residue on the road. Might have to wait it out. But, man! Wednesday ... sunny and near 60! If we get no rain, skipping that day is gonna be tough.

No, they are not in yet. Saturday was the day, but my wife's Echo's tranny deciding that life was just not worth living anymore screwed my schedule. So, now it is:

Juke, Juke, Juke.

I have to schedule a weekday now to install them due to me driving the Z to my folks' house in LA in a few weeks. I have to have them done by then. I swear it is one thing after another these past few months and it is putting me seriously on z edge.

darn, Im dying to get some driving impressions

Ill prob have mine installed in about a month

yah, been driving my G through the white stuff and after the wash today i felt the paint for contaminants. not too bad, but definitely needs clay on the rear bumper for sure.

if you do decide to pull out your Z, put some slick spray wax on the rear bumper for sure. the vapor from the exhaust while the engine warms up the first 10-15mins will make the salt dust stick pretty bad.

i use Griot's SprayOn Wax as LSP. it's super stick especially over polymers.

it will help wash off the salt without much contaminants sticking to the paint.

Thanks for the tip. I just bought a Porter Cable kit, and some clay plus spray. Can't wait for a good day to try out the equipment.

Kenman you use groit's really, LOL I think they are sponsoring you or your keeping them in business. I'm sure you ordered extra spicy butt explosion verde.

And a gallon of sushi ice cream.

Hopefully you can try out your kit soon BBig.

Spohn good luck at your track day.

happytheman · 03-05-2012, 10:53 PM

Not a whole lot going on lately. I will say though that my brother-in-law was pretty dissapointed that I didn't drive the Z over to Tampa when no went to see my sisters yesterday!

I find myself turning the tunes off and rolling the windows down nevery day now!

Spohn - I'm interested to hear how your track day goes buddy!

Ken-San - Well, at least I now know you're middle aged, live somewhere in the middle, like coffe ice cream & burritos, and used to live in California with a modded Civic!

Onzedge - Sorry you're On Z Edge over this Koni/Juke thing, and glad to hear that Colin is healing nicely!

Alcheng - I cann feel you're pent up frustrations all the way over here! I hope you get that tranny straightened out!

Edit: Zzappy is funny, and is going to hammer the fark outta his dealer badging!

What are these "windows" you talk about Happy? I don't think verts have them. Oh wait those are what posers in verts use when the top is down, right? Man I hate that LOL You see that all the time with BMR's why is that?

happytheman · 03-05-2012, 11:01 PM

Yeah, I don't understand that either...mebbe they don't want to muss their hair!

Fire · 03-05-2012, 11:02 PM

They can always comb their comb-over when they stop LOL

happytheman · 03-05-2012, 11:08 PM

What comes to mind is that part on Spanglish with Tea Leoni

when she gets into that convertible with the realtor and he adjusts her seat and window so her hair "flows perfectly"!
