I went to O'Reilly Auto Parts website and searched for a "121G" in the parts search. I think I need one of those!

yah, my Z felt slow too when i took her out for a spin last weekend. give it a couple of WOT runs and should open up. seems like da ECU takes some time to wake up after hibernation.

Took her out again last night did a few first gear pulls. Had a nice peppy feel. I think it's also cause I had it on base map during storage. Was trying to isolate a sporadic clicking noise and wanted to check if it was too much timing advance.

I think it's heat shield or something because it only come out once in awhile and it's only at a narrow mid range rpm band.

Don't get me wrong it's still fun. Just had one of those maybe if we're faster moments

Finished spraying the clear. I know the close ups are blurry. Lighting wasn't good and im using an ipod to take pics. Better pics later. Never actually looked close at a magnetic black before. They have pearls like that? I like it.
This was my first time doing this.

Gave her a well deserved douche today! She was a bit ripe with all of this road grime, pollen and bird pooh...

First driveway car wash of the spring

Which lead to clay bar
The hand wash with blue dawn
Then power wash again
Then shammy dry
And what the hell lets throw a coat of buttery wax on while I'm at it
I'm beat lol


Yep, awesome idea buying a black car

Usually I do a cost of paint sealer then two coats wax, but this was impromptu and I need to address some paint issues soon anyways so it would be a waste, not to mention that much more work right now.
