INGS+1 Rep Lip
OEM Spoiler with N-Type add-on
20/25MM Spacers
3 new shift knobs to play with
And now looking at some CAI's. A little hesitant though sicne finding a tuner in CNY is damn near impossible.

sicne?
but you don't need to tune your car after you just install intakes. so you can get intakes.

Is the finisher the part that covers up the nasty skinny looking stick that the knob screws down on to? Just wondering cause i was actually looking for something since i also changed my shift knob lol

mishuko · 03-03-2016, 09:11 AM

looking at the 14-day forecast for the weather. next week has a LOT of rain midweek with nice double digit temps!

I MIGHT be able to bring her out in about 2 weeks assuming the temps stay above 0 and no snow in the forecast!

oh and started inquiring about a tune to compare ecutek/uprev prices (or availability in my case). time to clean up my AFR and get rid of that throttle lag!

Y'all are missing out on all the cheap premium gas, paid $1.70ish the other day, and just combusted it without a care in the world

to cover the shaft u need to make a spacer inside the boot to keep the top of the boot from sliding down the shaft. i have a bunch of these plastic collars dat came with my wireshelves as packing material to separate the shelves during shipping. those work great for this purpose.

the finisher is to make the knob appear more fluid to the boot, and to cover the factory boot's creased top from the stock knob. you see a creased ring around bdingo's boot just under the knob. that looks unfinished.. well, at least to me. he apparently bought a finisher for it.

i made mine out of a ballcock shank washer. its my favorite homedepot mod..

Ordered GTR Start button and did mine just now! Took 2 minutes, literally.

A.Alva · 03-03-2016, 07:04 PM

I dropped off my Z to get a clear bra for the front end and also to get limo tint on all the windows and a sun strip

Z in the 6 · 03-03-2016, 08:52 PM

Drove it and priced out a stock to nismo exhaust conversion through a local dealer

You wouldn't happen to drive a gunmetal color Z would you?

Sweet. I've been looking at doing that as a quick and not expensive mod. How does the stock start button come out? Is it really that easy?

In other news I covered up Z again for the forcasted snow tonight. Then tomorrow it should be fine again...man am I ever tired of this March weather.

But I have been able to get thru winter just with a good cover and driving it in between all the storms, wash all the time to get salt off, and I did treat my underbody with 3M rust proof/sound deadener spray...

6 months of ownership, 11500k miles, oil change coming up (every 3k), bought with 6 miles =
