That sucks.

And reminds me I found a screw in my front 71R before I parked the car that I should pull off and bring it for a plug. Slow leak and car ain't leaving the garage so I'd forgotten all about it.

Even worse when it's a sidewall

And EVEN worse when it's on a road trip to Zdayz!!

received my moonbeam kit from carbon signal. unfortunately they decided to play with my emotions and not send the side blades. i have no doubt they will resolve the problem, but just had that WTF?! moment as i was unpacking everything.

Finished installing sport Akebonos on my Z. The stopping feels so much better than the worn out base brakes!

Went over to one of my friend's place the other night to check out the paint job he's done on my Shine Auto rear spats that I got with my Nismo wheels. They look great and can't wait to install them, though it'll be a month or more out since I drop off the Z at the dealership the second week of Jan to have them repaint the front and rear bumpers (factory known issue of the paint chipping off where the bumpers meet the fenders). It's only taken them 7 months to get around to doing it... Schmucks.

Also, went to another friend's personal shop last night (complete with above ground Atlas lift). He typically works on high dollar hot rods and old VW Bugs. Anyway, with a big 3/4" ratchet drive and a couple of 1/2" x 10" extensions, we were able to break loose the demon bolt on the driver's side. On the passenger side, we ended up snapping two sockets, a Snap-On and a Craftsman. It was getting late so we snugged the driver's side one back down and will be attacking it again this Wednesday.

He told me I'm not leaving Wednesday until my exhaust is making noise! LOL

Here's a pic of the spats before paint. He did a lot of prep to get these nice and smooth. Over the next couple of weeks, he'll take a little time here and there to wet sand them to match the rest of the car.

25mm wheel spacers all around. I feel like it looks better, but makes my wheel gap much more pronounced. I have a set of SWIFTs in a box that will go in someday... Anyone here running swifts with 25mm spacers? Any concerns with rubbing?

Temporarily fixed axle clicking on driver side of the Z, strangely enough the passenger side axle nut was nice and tight where as the driver side was able to be turned with only a quarter of my body weight on the torque wrench. Guess we'll see how long she holds like that.
