I knew you'd be one of the members who would last here. Not one bit sensitive at all to my comments.

 

I think everyone on this site has a Z thats way cleaner then mine.

E brake guy I would guess your brake just got stuck, especially if you dont use it on a regular basis.

Mic I towed a s60r yesterday... Fancy I especially liked the R on the key and the wheels and it looked like it had some nice brakes. Kinda lame that it was an automatic though.

 

Got a new oem front bumper installed today because some kook reversed into me in a parking lot. Thing is, I bought the car with pretty noticeable scratches on the bumper, so thanks to that random kook's insurance, I have a brand new bumper

 

God bless both your sorry azzes. Safe holidays, boys.

 

Will try this! Thanks for the tips!

 

put on new carbon fiber hatch fits just like from the factory if the good workers at Nissan we're smoking crack that day.will hopefully adjust it tomorrow to an acceptable fit.

 

Got 4d wrap from ebay to see how my wrapping skills were before I got the evo-r door switch covers. I'D say not bad for a beginnee. Lol

 

If one cannot be self deprecating or take the "abuse" of others, one should NOT EVER post on a forum of any sort!! The armchair quarterbacks will get you EVERY DANG TIME for something stupid.

But seriously.... can't dish it out if not willing to take the "abuse."

 

My Volvo's an automatic. Heh heh....

There's some rationale behind that though. First, there's some truth to the old adage about automatics being better behind a turbo Volvo engine. Thinking is that there's a loss of boost when shifting manually between gears. And I've found in every turbo Volvo I've owned (six), this feels pretty true.

Besides all that..... of our five running cars in the fleet, 3 of the five were manuals (all the Zs). My "daily" and my wife's "daily" (Highlander) have automatics.... no apologies. Some days I hate to shift.

 

Damb so I was going to say how long ive been driving standard cars and how im sure most automatic transmission vehicle can still probably shift faster then me. Because lets face it machines can do most things better then us. But then I actually came up with 17 years and was like wtf am I doing with my life. And fell into a mini depression

But then I realized its pretty ok so then all good. I don't blame you for getting an automatic, I just kinda thought the r would come exclusively as a six speed because when they came out 10 years ago my brother had an s60 and he made me watch a speed vision show on it the R that made it seem like a super car haha. His was a plain jane s60 still pretty nice.

We have 3 cars 2 standard 1 automatic. The wifey has the automatic Camry I dont like driving it because its kinda like the titanic. But it is our nicest newest car. She doesnt know how to drive a standard. I tried to teach her a few years ago but she kept stalling then she said I yelled at her too much so she gave up. She is Asian though so her driving skills are inherently scary...

Ok on topic going to try and get my crackhead hatch to fit without rubbing everywhere, couldn't sleep knowing it's so jacked up.

 

Hahahahahahahahahahaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa..... been looking for an excuse to post this picture....



At least a couple of guys here sharing similar color shades who I'm POSITIVE outdrive me!!!

And I've been to d-school four times.... Hahahahahahaha! (But then again, maybe that's cuz I needed it that many times due to my genetic disposition.... )

Oh no worries, I take no offense of that which is mostly true.

 

Home Depot plug, less than a buck.

 

Haha perfect opportunity for that one.. MIC

I did get that home depot plug I juat wanted the window not flying off insurance of a bolt because hacker megee over here put that **** in diy and I wasnt 100% confident about the window urithain after the prolonged squeeze out time. Its been windows down 80 mph tested.. And seems legit though.. Fitment is at drunk status, big improvement over last nights crack smoker status so I think I can live with it for now.

 

when i put the plug in my windows, i ran a bead of silicone under it

 

Where did you get your 90º adapters from? When I got my wheels years ago, I was told I couldn't use my sensors. I was really disappointed. At that time, I don't think anyone made adapters.

 

I've done that before as well as use a straight razor to clean off the glass.

 

Put the side skirts on, paint match is not 100% but it'll do

Took my Z out today to get it even dirtier. Put 2 miles on it. Getting it so dirty that cleaning it will be a pleasure next weekend for when I finally change things up again.

 

Restored the paint on the hatch, I have the rest of the car to go. Lol. Took me half a day just for the hatch, previous owner seems to like to take it through the automatic carwashes.

 

let my wife learn on a stick for the first time ever today on the Z. 3.5 stage 8 ceramic puck, she did pretty good considering.

She got it on the first try. was pretty jerky but didnt choke it off!
