What did you do with your Z today IV

Jazz Hands are appropriate for all situations.

If I get in a fight I use jazz hands in my fighting stance. It's a confusion tactic. The opponent thinks, "is he going to hit me or is he going to kiss me?" If he's straight he runs. If he's gay... well at least you didn't get in a fight.

So, in combat, jazz hands are either a deterrent or an invitation for intercourse. I'll keep that in mind.

Higher-end watches using Swiss ETA movements usually start around $800 and go on up. An entry-level ETA movement is around $200-250 by itself.

Rolex uses its own in-house movements which are very expensive and accurate. They are known for the continuous sweep of the second hand which I really like.

Lots of the other makers just use Swiss ETA these, however some have their own in-house stuff, like Omega's Co-Axial Escapement.

These are the two that I am considering... maybe as a Christmas present to myself:

OMEGA Watches: Speedmaster Moonwatch Co-Axial Chronograph - Steel on steel - 311.30.44.50.01.002

OFFICIAL ROLEX WEBSITE - Timeless Luxury Watches

Both would be around $7k so I am a little hesitant to spend that much. All I wear right now are $200-300 Seiko automatics.

reported for spam!

oh wait...

hahaha

good info!

i dont remember how much my orient was but it was more than the first one. the band on it broke while i was carrying my wheels to storage.

Congrats!

Just bought a new CR-V last night for mrs. gurney. CR-V EX with leather and nav. Got $17.5k on the trade on the MDX and a $2,300 discount off the sticker. Opal Sage (light green) with a black interior.

Only Z action is commuting, but check out the Houston group's cruise to Galveston this past Sunday:

Congrats, man. Sounds like you got a decent trade on the MDX, all things considered. Hope the wife enjoys the new CR-V.

Thanks!

Electrical and mechanical problems, huh?

I forgot to mention... Not Z related, I started my new exercise routine last night. I'll have to post pix of my setup in my house later. It's pretty sweet. I'm trying to trim down the shado.

Z related, I'm setting up a professional photo shoot for my Z with a pro photographer (HKYStormfront) and a pro model in October.

I'm very excited.

I've wanted to do this since I bought the car.

My wife just recently agreed to do something like this for me (new avatar here I come!). We have even asked some of our other female friends if they would be willing participants. My goal is to do this sometime this summer. Perhaps a thread asking for suggestions (and maybe pics) of poses would be in order...

yah, seeping oil pan, a/c that cant be fixed after 4 tries by dealer, self combusion issues, rusting door sills, you name it. they're cute looking cars and fun to own but it comes with its own set of characters.

honestly for dd, i would much rather have the ugly MS3.

Nope, still not going all the way to full. I have not used a different pump yet. I left the car with the spouse all weekend and he probably filled up at the same one I always use. I'll be sure to burn through this one quickly though.

Afternoon my Z peeps.

I see Kensan is being a spend ho again

cool. so you are sure you have a sender issue and not a filler issue? does your range on the obc show the full 400+ miles (or watever) after fill up? if so, then i think you have a full tank and sender is the problem.

if you only get like 275-300 miles or something after fill up then im pretty sure you got a filler problem. (this is wat my G has). for this, i found that pump nozzles that are angled down more fills better especially using slow flow rate.

the bottom of the handle would literally sit on the Z. these work best to fill.
i can get a full tank on my G.
