Re: Need bodywork Experts - Have a Dent

Re: Legal question - laptop in car

I run my laptop in the Z sometimes. I have software that allows me to have 16 gauges running realtime, as well as datalog capabilities. It was really useful when I was having issues blowing coolant hoses all the time so I could keep an eye on the coolant temps. I usually just set it in the passenger...

Re: Misc Thread VI: Return of the Threadi

I paid 450 for both rear tires for the Z a few months ago :(

They make a world of difference though. I still can't keep it in line in 1st gear, but at least I can maintain traction in 2nd now.

Re: Misc Thread VI: Return of the Threadi

Well I still can't believe the Z made the roadtrip from Texas to New York with ZERO problems. All that hard work paid off lol.

1600 miles in 3 days.

All I can say is the entire state of Kentucky goes by REAL quick at 120mph :twisted:

Well I certainly could get it inspected in NYS, and I wouldn't even have to do sniffer emissions, just safety and visual, but I have testpipes I want to install so I really wanna get my inspection done so I can install them before I go, since I won't have a place to at school, and they would likely ...

Re: Misc Thread VI: Return of the Threadi

Two days to work on the Z before a 1500 mile roadtrip. I've got an intermittently dropping cylinder, a 500-2000rpm fluctuating idle, a leaking windshield wiper fluid tank, oil to be changed, inspection to be got, and a whole hell of a lot of parts to install. And I've got to teach my brother how to ...
