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

ChopsZ · 09-19-2016, 09:20 PM

Two days ago, I ordered the Z1 CAI. Today I ordered the EcuTek from Specialty Z with the data-logging option.

Now I need to find some GT-R injectors so I can run E85.

Waiting (impatiently) for mine to show up from Sebastian. Really looking forward to it, not least of all because I already sold my uprev license and cable so I'm running stock ecu and it's driving me nuts!

Imagine doing that on a turbo car! My last car, a Fiat 500 Abarth, I switched tuners and dropped from 230 hp & 250 ft lbs down to a stock 160 hp and 170 ft lbs. Imagine how I felt for those two weeks. LOL

Whatever magic you guys worked with those bolt extractors did not work for me. I ended up stripping the bolt extractors

Kroil works pretty good, the trick is to soak it, then let it set for about 15 to 20 minutes. The stuff has to penetrate down far enough to loosen the rust. The other option is a torch....

We gave up and I'm going to take it to a shop on Thursday... Spent at least 15 hours trying to break it off... Just another victim to the demon bolt. T_T

I got really lucky with that bolt. Sprayed with liquid wrench, let it sit 3 days, and they came off easily. The stock cat-back was a bigger PITA

Went got my new tires mounted yesterday. Then today I installed rear camber arms and found a screw already in my tire. Lucky it was a larger one. Then got an alignment.
