I swapped out OEM transmission and rear differential fluids with Redline synthetic (MT-85 and 75W90, respectively) Piece of cake DIY, though my friend's ramps on a sloped incline do not provide near the clearance that my four jacks stands in my garage do.

Left the brake and clutch fluid for another day (maybe when I replace rotors and pads). I will swap the power steering fluid in the reservoir at home this weekend.

Bought a custom, modular license plate mounting bracket from P-tuning along with a really pretty powdered racing tow hook.

PTUNING Adjustable Front License Plate Relocation Kit for 370Z all model.

Really neat. Just my two cents, but after having played with 3 flavors of mounting bracket, this one takes the cake.

Pulled tranny and got my new Southbend flywheel in. Ran out of daylight. Will finish clutch tomorrow with lots of other big weight savings to come. Hehe

Anyone else absolutely love how the gauges fire up to max when you start the car up?
