Soon soon... I work at home, and don't drive a whole lot. I've been going for cruises almost every night though to get her broken in. Once I'm past the "break-in" oil change I may go for the next local dyno-day (cheaper). But the real results, I think, will be around the 5k mile mark or a little higher. That's when motors really start to loosen up a little.

Trust me..I can't wait to see either. I'm not anticipating earth-shattering numbers, nor was that the goal. Still...R-Tune plus Rev-Up is an interesting dyno question. I'm as intrigued as you.

Cheers,

Nice car. What's the difference between 35th anniversary and 06' model? Isn't 35th anniverary the 05' model?

Absolutely beautiful man. By far the best Z straight out of the factory I’ve ever seen. You have a PM!

Looks good.

Did Nismo shorten the lower intake tube? On my old AEM CAI it went much farther down into the bumper.

I appreciate all the kind words! Definitely post a pick of that Interlagos! I haven't seen one in-person yet but I hear it is quite wild lookin. Enjoy!

Great looking Z...but if the rear wiper is accidently activated, won't it
move counter-clock-wise and be rubbing over the paint?

Maybe just remove it ?

Yes, the rear wiper is almost definitely installed wrong. I haven't looked at a lot of 06's, so I'm not 100% sure.

But I *do* know that there was a post a while ago about a guy whose rear wiper went "the wrong way". Trust me, you want to get rid of it or triple check to see if it's mounted properly before you turn it on accidentally and scratch up your trunk.

You guys are right. Someone else had noticed this too. I actually like the wiper stopped on the "down" stroke, but this one is actually just installed at the end down-stroke.

I never use the rear-window wiper of a car anyway. But you're right..an accident would have suu-ucked! lol

I think I may leave it and just pull a connector so the rear-wiper can never engage.


Thx folks
