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

mishuko · 02-18-2015, 08:14 AM

planning out my service routine up until july... the problem is when i should book with my tire shop to get new rubber...

i plan on getting a big overhaul done in july before my road trip. flush the fluids and get new pads (should be aprox 30,000 km by then) and then enjoy a long fun drive to the east coast. then i'll need another oil change when i get back

Thanks, man.

The Project 370Z car had one. Of course, that was a Nissan vehicle. Perhaps you are talking about individual owner (vs race team or a sponsor)?

Either way, all of my research has indicated that this is the one to get when I upgrade the VLSD. Good info here

I blew a spec of dust off the Z this morning as I got into the wifes Altima to carpool to work. Every time I go in the garage it's like ... March can't come soon enough. The way things are going here on the East coast, it may be April before the Z is in daylight again.

diff bushing is at least 5 hours. headers, another 5 hours, and the manifold...probably an hour or two. that is ALOT of work

haha yes, that! all you need is another driver side stub axle, part number ends in JK01B. oh and some new bearings/seals. i had my entire diff rebuilt since i was in there, minus new gears. didnt have money left over or else i wouldve upgraded to 3.9's

New brake pads installed first thing this AM ✔
After getting it home I did the tranny and diff fluid✔ I'm trying Motul this time around.

It was a bitch jacking up this car. She did not like rear entry to get to her pumpkin but loved it sideways.

Jesus,first you drained her of her lubricating fluid,then you filled her!? All the while playing with her pumpkin! Now that's one girl that's been serviced! Lol. I won't mention that to nissy,she'll get jealous.

FairladyZ10PG · 02-21-2015, 01:22 PM

Got some new rubbers mounted!

Fresh set of RE-11s!

JARblue · 02-21-2015, 04:14 PM

Replaced my center console pocket assembly. I am happy to have a pocket door that pops up when I press the button now - I broke my old one so that it wouldn't pop up on it's own.

I am currently in the midst of a full interior detail. I even vacuumed the carpet under the center console

Tried to put the Stillen bracket on today but the stupid adjusting middle screw locked up on me. I wish we owned tools.

P's_Z · 02-21-2015, 05:08 PM

Went to the gas station to fill 'er up. Found this on the road
