Kidding my friend, good to know you got your car back! I still want some pics though

My first drive in the Z in over a week is probably blasphemous to some. It was in the rain to get groceries

But I did take the time to drive her around a bit before the store to warm her up fully. And I figured since it was raining, I might as well take the opportunity to play slip and slide a bit in my nearby practice parking lot

I've always had it put in where/when I buy my tires (same shop every time)..never had any issues, but freely admit I never did a test to verify it was nitrogen...other than no (or minimal) gains or loss in psi over long periods of time.

I am a big nitrogen fan based on the big tempture swings here. I remove the valve stem core at COSTCO and after the air is out replace the stem and air with N02. Works great, better tire performance and quiets the tires on the freeway. I run No2 now in all of my cars and motorcyles...

Congrats!

Wash and detail...to get off the road grime from last 3 days of rain, even knowing there is 20% chance tomorrow and 30% on Tuesday. Sometimes I get lucky and it rains while I'm parked at home or work and roads dry before I have to use them!

Masterbeatty · 09-14-2014, 05:23 PM

Attended the second car show in 3 days. Finished refinishing my engine cover, and went for a nice drive around CT yesterday with my wife. Great weekend with our Z

mishuko · 09-14-2014, 08:42 PM

Did a full clean job today. Washed the engine bay, nooks and crannies, waxed and tire shine. Decided to go for a nice drive through DT Toronto just because! Now she's a bit thirsty!

My wash buckets cracked in the bottom so off I went to my local deli and picked up four 5 gallon pickle buckets for a buck each. Try it, it's better than buying them from your local hardware store.

Does it make you car smell like pickles too?

My local Lowes has buckets for $2 I think; however, I haven't bucket washed my car lately. Power washer + foam cannon + grout sponges (which are disposable)

kenchan · 09-15-2014, 10:18 AM

i use the griots wash buckets with casters cause they are rectangular in shape and dont take up as much room in the garage horizontally as regular round buckets. ofcourse they come with a premium price though...

Dropped the Z off at the body shop.
Now driving a Sentra
