Screw all the hype, i still change mine every 5k miles or 4 track days . My car is also a bit different, do to track abuse. On a pure DD , i would do 7500 miles and change the filter halfway.

Been running Amsoil since 37k miles.

 

Taywan, (Also for Terramask)

I am going to be putting my FI kit on soon so there will be a break-in oil change as well. I am OCD about things so after the intial break-in oil change I will probably change the oil too much just to be safe and for peace of mind if nothing else, maybe every 2,000-3,000 miles. At the very most 5,000. I know they say the Amsoil is rated to 25,000, I would never run it that long.

Edit: I will also change the oil a lot to get up-to-date blackstone reports just to observe the condition of the motor and bearing wear. It should also be said, I don't drive the car a lot. These 2,000 miles with the Mobile 1 lasted me about 9 months. For me oil changing is more of bonding time with the car and pampering it.

 

Today.. changed the oil and gave her a very much needed wash. It's nice here in NC about 65 degrees and sunny. So ready for spring.

 

A 18 year old girl side swiped the left side. The front bumper, fender and door are damaged. I am looking for a good body shop in the League City, Pearland, Friendswood (TX) or surrounding areas. Does anyone have a good recommendation?

 

Thinking about selling mine to buy this http://lasvegas.craigslist.org/cto/3677472531.html slam it more with neg offsets.

 

lol as much as you rag on automatics and rice, we all know that is a lie.

 

Now that's a race car

 

I usually wash my car 1 - 3x/week, but the last time was in January due to travel & a hectic schedule so washed & waxed it. My car was so happy but called me an a$$h0l3 for taking so long, so I gave it a grounding kit (not sure if I could tell a difference), buffed & polished the headlights (like the 4th time in a year - gets cloudy too quick!), and put in a K&N air filter.

 

Nismo-I am on XL going 5-6k intervals. I sure wouldn't go past even 10k on the signature series.

 

Batman wants his car back!

I see you're friends w/Mike!

 

Hey ImWeeZzel - I am! Very good friend of mine. Love the guy NOHOMO We just had lunch a couple hours ago, in fact. I see you're in Rockville. Do you ever come out to our nGc meets on Thursday nights?

 

I haven't been out there in awhile. I might try to make it there tomorrow if I get done moving my furniture in time. Mike is good peoples, he's always welcoming the new people to the meets. Real humble guy.

 

Yes, sir; indeed that is him. You know what my car looks like so look me up if & when you come out. If you don't see me, ask Mike about me, too. And before we get flamed, I'll PM you in a moment to take this thread off of here ;-)

 

any pics of the ground kit completely installed? ive been looking at quite a few today.. im thinking abt adding a little red to my bay

 

RedLine_ZR - Sure, I'll post pix. Quite honestly, I tried to hide the cabling as best I could, but you can see a little blue here & there. I'll try to get those pix tomorrow when it's light out.

 

Dc headers. Jwt clutch kit. Kw clubsports an stiffer motor mounts an trans mount. So much more to go before spring.

 

Started the sheet metal work to block off the two outer ducts in the grill opening of my V2 bumper. Also adding the brake cooling ducts into the block off.
