What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

SurfDog · 08-22-2012, 03:06 PM

I crawled under and did an oil change. I ordered a bunch of redline synthetic but it was delivered to my Colorado address, so just used the Royal Purple stuff From the local Auto Zone. Mine is a DD and San Francisco doesn't get too hot so I'm probably okay. I guess I'll pour the Redline into my FJ next time it comes due for oil. At least I got the filter magnet and K/N filters on there. The friggin dealer put that filter on so tight i had to use a pipe wrench to get it off. (by the way you don't need a special filter wrench to get ours off if its stuck, a big 'ol pipe wrench works fine if you have one laying around.

I dropped my car off at the tire shop to mount my new wheels (Wedsport SA55's) and tires (Hankook Ventus V12's). Should have it back tomorrow.

I. BC20. Installed some K&N filters! First real mod (does window tint count?)! Woot!

I made a mockery of the newly reduced speed limit this morning.

I even managed to SRM down shift beside a GT Mustang who was holding up six cars going the other direction. This was to let him know he made the right choice, avoiding a true sports car like the Z.

thats a trick little feature

I feel like an idiot thinking that was some sport car thing and that I needed to wait to rev the engine until it settled

I think I'm going to turn it off now.

Well played, sir.

I put 875 miles on a rental Altima yesterday, but the Z got some love on the way to work today when I made an impressive drift around a turn in 2nd and then went WOT, shifted to 3rd for about 1.5 sec before going straight to 6th cause I was at the 60 mph speed limit
