First Z Birthday!
Washed / clayed / polished (Thanks Junkman!) / waxed.
"Everything's shiny Capt"

Then, finally, after 3 prior (failed) attempts, I got my steering wheel controls to finally work with my stereo; feel just like Elon Musk after he landed his rocket.

Thanks to someone 2-3 pages back whom installed an Axxess ASWC which got me to revisit this issue and toss the PAC swc unit that never worked.
Can change the volume from the steering wheel like a fancy person, don't have to reach all the way over to the stereo like some hobo.

Installed my Z1 20mm spacers today. Poor thing needs a bath though.

Took me a while to find them. Wanted something to match the black lug nuts, black calipers and body color matched center caps

That's the one thing I probably would have bought in CF if I'd have seen the option. Oh well, at least mine match my valve stems lol

Had my CNT Racing CBE installed on my Z today! Went with the blue tips. Considered all the usual suspects, but being in Canada the cost was insane once you add in duty, tax, shipping, and exchange. Sounds awesome, quality looks good to me, fit was perfect. Got to burn off most of the crap in there today, looked like I was pushing blue for a few miles but really did feel more free revving and smoother throughout the rev range. So much better than stock!

I'm happy with my Z1's, such a simple upgrade, that gap cannot be unseen IMO.

I got my exhaust and intakes when dollar was par thank god. Looks good. Trust me you will have residue smells for about a week or so of driving while the exhaust burns off the factory lubricants and it breaks in.

As in just rev harder

25K oil change, checked fluids, cleaned out the airboxes and clutch still working fine.

S04's are wearing OK and I love the ride.
