Took the Z out yesterday when it was 103 and those oil temps hit 225 just cruising at 50mph in 5th. Oil cooler is next mod

hi mr.zman-

holycraps! sounds good about the oil temp.

i was driving pretty hard yesterday in 90F and my oil temp was constant at 220F. i just mobil1 silver cap. im not certain or have any scientific data, but i read mobil1 keeps temps cooler for something or another.

hi mr.gale.

sounds good that you got your cupholder thingie and stands straight.

you might want to try making a tripod mount for your zoom if you your zoom has a tripod mount hole?

for mine i just drilled 2 holes into the base and mounted a thin piece of metal with the tripod knob and e-clip on the other side so my knob doesn't fall off.

on the base, i added some 5mm thick weather seal stripping blocks on the bottom half of the part of the base extenders. this is to prevent the extenders from holding onto the painted cupholder ring on the Z. that part vibrated on my car in certain frequencies when the tascam was attached.

after pulling out the cupholder assembly i pulled apart the painted ring and put a piece of e-tape sandwiched between the painted trim clip part and the base plastic for a secure fit. you'll know wat i mean if you pull your cupholder assy out of the center console and see the passenger side of the ring. yours might not vibrate though with your zoom attached.

The Zoom does have the tripod mount

I just need to find some time for modding. Thanks for the helpful info

Hi all! The morning/day kind of got away from me. Work is nuts for the next few weeks.

Belated birthday wishes mr. alcheng. I apologize for missing that yesterday.

ms. pint - it breaks my heart to read your posts. You're a true sweetheart and I wish you nothing but the best; it's what you deserve. There's not a whole lot a bunch of strangers on an internet forum can really tell you other than we truly care for you and hope you come out of all of this happier, however the way things turnout.

Coffee and Cars this weekend; something to get me through the weekend. I'll be back at work afterwards on Saturday and most of Sunday too.

If I don't get back to you guys tomorrow, have a safe and fun weekend.

happytheman · 07-05-2012, 10:03 PM

You have a good and safe weekend Mr. Gurney!

Hello everyone.

As Mr. Kenchan might say "GoodPM".

Pintsize725 · 07-05-2012, 10:32 PM

Thank you all guys for the emotional support. It really means alot to me. I'm unsure of what the outcome is but we are much closer to separation now than we have ever been.

Z related: I've been enjoying some spirited drives lately. I'm finally getting used to the power.

Mr.onzedge…

Looks like I will receive the exhaust around the end of this month cos the payment gonna take 7 days to be cleared, then shipping cost another week, then the installation... anyway, it's exciting!!
