Yeah mine just went out at 52k. It was struggling to go up and down so I would help force it then one day I tried to roll it up when it started to rain and it wouldn't budge.

Well here is the new color for the center of the GTS haven't seen then in person yet these were just sent to me via phone. Quite a bit lighter from the pics hopefully it contrasts a bit more. Hoping to get the car back tomorrow and get some nice photos up soon.

Well it's been a bit but new parts coming soon. Going to change out all the fluids again with AMS oil and replace the brakes with the Z1 brake kit for now. Also am looking at a seibon TS hood an TS rear diffuser. I have been neglecting the Z can't even remember the last time I washed it or drove it lol.

Z's looking real good man!

I like the new paint on those GT-S's too, it definitely helps contrast the rest of the car. One of my favorite wheels and styles

Gutted the z because race car, I mean to get some stuff hydro dipped at ozark hydrographics (http://www.ozarkshydrographics.com). I had never taken panels off but it wasn't to bad. I don't ever recommend driving without your climate controls, I made the mistake and I was driving to drop the pieces off with the heat on blast and no way to roll the windows down...I guess every project on a car ends in blood sweat and tears.









Also placed an order for this convenient thing here, hopefully it will be a clean install on the passenger side of the center console. I usually plug my phone into my head unit via the cubby box but closing the lid is a pain and then inconvenient to access during spirited driving.

Just placed an order for the new mishimoto intake, seems like they produced a high quality alternative to the pop charger with a bit of a nicer look. Also plan on giving a shot at polishing my plenum and installing a spacer here soon! Still waiting to get my pieces back from hydro dipping, will have pics when I get them!
