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

forza370z · 09-16-2013, 10:00 PM

Took my z to the Cars and Copters yesterday. It was awesome!

TheGreatOne · 09-16-2013, 11:52 PM

Cars and copters, thats an interesting concept...leaves cars and coffee in the dust lol

I did my 48K service, which includes the brake service, the most expensive one, so that was a fun bill of $690 + tax

What parts did they need to replace for the bill to get that high?

Well besides usual differential oil, air filter (although I have CAI) Oil change, where you see it rise is the brake service, its the full inspection, cleaning and for the life of me I forget...I left the papers at home...but there was something else they do only to the Z which added a good $200 something

1st Oil change @ 7500mi.
It's the little milestones.
But new oil to go to Nationals.

CROP dust that is...

I've gathered up my RBF 600, two sets of ss brake lines, some 15 and 20mm spacers and am pulling of my rims to be re-powdercoated. (I'm not loving how they came out the other day... its a weird color)

forum member Shadezz and I are going to pour some love on our brakes and wheels this week!

I'm hoping my hawk ceramics from Z1 motorsports get here in time for the fun!

I have a cordial and ongoing "discussion" with a co-worker who owns an 06 Boxster. His email jab at me today was this:

"Porsche's 918 Spyder, a gas-electric plug-in hybrid, sets a course speed record at the Nürburgring motor sports complex. Check out the WSJ article here: http://www.marketwatch.com/story/porsches-918-spyder-shines-2013-09-14"

My reply:

"Well, I’ll see your Porsche and I’ll raise you this: http://www.caradvice.com.au/244382/nissan-gt-r-nismo-to-hit-100kmh-in-2-0-seconds-report/"

Good times.
