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

mab864 · 06-09-2014, 08:11 PM

Added Stillen lightweight crank pulley. Didn't expect it to make much difference but I have to say it does rev a little more free now. Also noticed it takes off from a stop with less effort and seems to rev a little quicker. It's a noticeable improvement. Worth $160 and 1.5 hrs of your time for sure. Not a huge difference by any means but a nice little improvement. I like it.

As ugly as it may look I got to try them out. Installed silencers on my recent A.P. CBE. I'll see how it sounds on my commute to work. Trying to cut down on some sound. Also my temp tag expires tomorrow. Waiting on DMV to deliver my vanity plate.

303'd the top. Complete waterproofing in 30 min = awesome
Also bought the 303 aerospace protectant for the inside.. Experimented on my 05 Ram work truck that never gets a bath and the dash looks like new.... Wifes Maxima was next. The leather and dash came out great, so I decided to do the Z.. incredible product.

Sent while driving!

i also panter's tape the spokes on wheels that protrude past the lip.

I took your advice after last time and this is how I found out that the repair was nothing more than a coat of grey spray paint on the inside of the rims that included painting over the weights.

Put it back on the ground, filled it with oil, started it up, checked for leaks. So far so good. I also reset the power windows. To my surprise, I didn't need to reset any airbag stuff.

I just need to get it back up in the air, double check things, reinstall the bumper and undershroud, then test drive.
