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

The new Injen washer fluid bottle doesn't clear the LED lights in my bumper. Had to massage it in there. But in any case it's in. Time for a shakedown

Took the day off work and spent the afternoon with the Z...Swapped my OEM plugs for GTR plugs... installed a CJM fuel tap with mini-pressure gauge... and installed the boost sensor for my boost gauge.

Installed my Swift springs and 25/20mm wheel spacers. Makes a huge difference in the look of the vehicle for relatively cheap!

Did you have to order the wiper blades or did the dealer have them in stock;
swapped mine about a year back & they tried telling me my car came with an aftermarket blade? pt#28890-1EA0B

Very cool that you got to meet Ryan the other day

I lay a filing cabinet on its side, which ends up right about even with the door sill. Lots of blankets to protect the edges and providing cushioning. Then I can pretty much just lay on my back to do the work. It's much more tolerable that working from your knees by the car I just did my 4th RJM pedal install yesterday.

it wasn't all too bad. I put a thick jacket and towel on the edge and some gardening pads down for the knee. I literally lay on my back to do the upper portions. the thigh support n the chair made it weird in certain positions.

I found this to be okay but tricky to get to certain positions. can't imagine what the 1.0 - 2.0 versions were like

Yes! I have a home made footstool that lines up with the height of the Z's door. Definitely makes it easier.

I didn't realize this clutch pedal option existed. I just ordered it. First and second gear has been a PITA for me on this car :-)
