What did you do with your Z today III

I did something very exciting today with my 370; something very exciting indeed. I drove to the office, parked it and then, about 9 1/2 hours later... Ready for it?

Ken, is there no place else that they can go...like:

Is your back yard fenced w/ privacy fence? Can you slip them beside the house in the back yard?

I take it you have an HOA? Is there enough elbow room between your neighbors and yourself for you to resurrect a surround for them on none side of the house?

Something's gotta give brother... There has got to be another way than cramming them in the garage.

You know..I'd mention this each time I did it..but you guys would get bored hearing about it!

I do truly wish that it was only a once in a while treat, and I had another vehicle as a DD.

I had another DD for many months. Every time I went to work in the Jeep I wished I was driving the Z. That and always reaching for the clutch pedal and almost screeching to a halt

Yeah, I always have to rest my hand on the huge clunky auto shifter on the console of the wife's Xterra. I HATE driving automatics.

Alchemy and Alcheng (the two Al's)! Good morning, good sir! Up and posting before anyone else! Very nice!

I sure wish that red silicone tubing in the engine bay retained its red color, instead of washing out to pink. That information, while not entirely surprising, has somewhat bummed me out. It may be cheap to put in, but what's the point of the effort if it's going to have to be re-done seven months down the road. (*sigh*)

Well good morning my fellow Z enthusiasts! Enjoying my first cup of coffee on the back patio, while watching the pups do their thing. It's a wee bit cloudy this am so I cannot see the newly risen sun. Oh well, at least it's nice and cool outside still. Soon the summer heat will keep my morning coffee enjoyment indoors.

Bye bye Versa!

I'm taking my car to the dealer for them to look at my fuel gauge problem. I'll bet if they do anything they'll update the ECU, Then I'll have to reload my Uprev ROM after I get home, and start the process all over again.

Good morning all!

Day three without the Z as the work progresses on re-painting the front bumper and replacing the diffuser, inner fender wells, and mounting brackets all damaged from my "pot hole incident" a while back. Hope to have the car by Friday.

While the car is in the shop, I'm having my 20mm rear spacers swapped for a set of 10mm spacers. Mr. kenchan will soon be able to sleep at night knowing that issue is settled. Mr. Happy, the package with the 20mm's should be in the mail early next week.

Have a great day guys!

We have frost on the roofs... I would love to get out on the patio to enjoy my coffee, but not till it warms up a bit. For now I'll settle for drinking my coffee during the 1/2 hour of relative peace I have, inside, before Mini GaleForce is up.
