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

Bananaz · 03-23-2015, 09:03 AM

Painted my headlights and washed her

got 2 more goodies to put on soon!

Ghostvette · 03-23-2015, 12:41 PM

Winter wheels & tires off, summer ones back on.

Changed the oil and filter. Has to be an easier way, it takes longer to take the under body pan off than to change the oil.

Road trip to Wichita and back... dodged a very fat possum on the way back..

Get that ZSpeed undertray. It has a little door you open for access to the filter and plug.

ZSpeed aluminum under shroud

2 hour drive, dodged one deer.

There is a flap on the OEM one as well. Only requires removing 4 bolts and holding the flap back (bungee cord works well for this). I don't think I've ever removed the entire shroud except for a few times for cleaning and when I dropped the transmission.

I'll have to look for that. I don't recall seeing one on mine.

Made oil changes easier since i learned about this

Got compliments regarding my clean Z. Co workers asked what i did differently, i said nothing just washed her yesterday, little do they know my baby is shining a lot more since i detailed here last weekend

But guess this means they didnt notice here all of last week

Contemplating a part out and trade in.

Got her even more dirty today. The dang rain just won't stop. She has turned from black to a dirty gray. Uuck.

It's there. I promise. It's the four rear most bolts. That should allow the flap to drop down. You'll need something to hold it out of the way of the oil flow.
