Couple things. If you want to talk stereo installs, shoot me a PM because I have the full AVIC-Z140BH setup installed with XM/bluetooth mic etc and the parking brake "motion" override for the DVD, alpine amp, pioneer sub etc. I will caution you to be SUPER careful installing the various antennae because it's really easy to foul your key fob detection (like I did lol).
As for plastidip, you won't have to sand it off. It will just peel off and you can buff out whatever remains. I'm guessing you won't like it after a month or two though. It doesn't "age" well.

Nothing truly done to the Z today but I did schedule a retune for tomorrow morning at 11am since swapping from the CNT exhaust to the LiteSpeed SS exhaust. Only paying $100 for a quick retune so whatever lol.

Installed the cargo cover and net. Then gave her a good wash and went for a drive. Still learning the car, my shifts are getting better except for the 1-2shift. Looking forward to spring/summer cruising.

My black "Z" emblem fell off in the car wash. Thankfully, one of the workers found it, and I was able to put it back on. I then ordered a set of Super Sports, a GTR start button, a carbon fiber fang cover, an oil filter, and five quarts of Mobile 1. Can't wait until it gets warm.

Went out into downtown Charlotte ('uptown' read_t) with Thezmonster and a couple cool Nismo 350Z owners. Met an old mall security cop who decided to tell all about his life, then went to get some photo gear. Then we hit the garages in (uptown). Cruising the 4 Z's turning heads all the way. Today was a good day.

Rev it up to 4k. Your shifts will be better into 2nd. Baby it and the shift is usually clunky.

Nice! How's the sound and do you have picks of the box and install? How deep are the subs?

Side note, how are most MT drivers positioning their seats? I'm still trying to find the "sweet spot". I'm relatively short (5'7) and when I position my seat so I can fully depress the clutch and still have my knee bent, I find it uncomfortable as I'm now too close to the brake, gas, and steering wheel. This weekend I backed up the seat so my leg is fully extended when the clutch is to the floor and it seems to help with my shifting as well. Its a little awkward having to stretch my leg to start the car but I think I may have found my "spot". The Zs friction point seems rather high for how far (deep) the clutch travels. |
