What did you do with your Z today III

Fire · 05-15-2012, 06:32 PM

OK that makes more sense Zach711f.

Zach711f · 05-15-2012, 06:33 PM

Oh yah and small exhaust leak was tightens up. That makes a world of difference!

More from Houston's Aeros and Autos last Saturday.............................

Hennessey Ford GT hits 212.9 mph in the standing half-mile

BTW - John Hennessey actually paid for the airport rental and had all the resgistration fees donated to local charities.

I have had trouble with them as a company. I suggest you buy from a reputable reseller if you do buy something EVO-R. That way you're covered if the item isn't up to suff.

I just realized how much easier it is to postwhore

from a pc with an actual keyboard. Most of my posting (99%) is from my ipad.

I'm in the same boat as you. I'm considering buying a BT keyboard for my iPad...

I would like to get a harness so I can do some "probing" and actually see what is going on with the system in relation with the BCM and IPDM. Having said that, I'm not sure I want to pay $50 to do that...

Finally took it out for a ride..The 370Z and not the Z/28.

For me, the car is great.. Compared to the 350Z, it feels great..

For what I will do with the car, street driving, it works great.. The brakes are good, and the handling and the power are fine for me..

Sure the exhaust isn't the same, but no biggie.. Sure they have an Oil temp gauge,
I don't read it. It may have read 210, but if I am only street driving and some traffic in hot weather, I could care less..

The tank is full of gasoline, so I don't worry, and over all , the 2009 Sport/Touring felt great, and looked even better..

But I am 52, so I won't be racing it on the street or modding it..

That is what I have the crazy Z/28 for...Redline and track days..

But Today I drove the 370Z ...Finally.

Only the gas Gauge is lame, but that is a pimple..Hopefully I won't have any of the problems 370z's have ,but time will tell..

Today was a good day...except for the hater tailgaters..But haters will hate...No sweat.

I can hook up a BT mouse and keyboard to my iPhone. It's pretty slick, but I've usually got another computer right next to me when I set it up. I use the BT mouse sometimes when I'm traveling so I can play X-COM: UFO Defense on my iPhone

I used my first gen iPad for casual web browsing and my MacBook Pro for everything else but since buying the third gen iPad, I have turned into an iPad power user. I literally use it for everything. The retina display has spoiled me, it really is that much better.
