I'm going on the 19th a weekday might be less crowded.

Mdacko....that's cool!!........Got to love Santa!!..... sounds
like you been good!!....lol

I'm going to do my caliper's yellow

 

mike how did the painting go? did the paint come with a brush? was it a foam brush or a paint brush?

im scared, i was never good with painting or coloring or anything that required concentration. when i did my calipers silver it involved a can of spray paint.

do you guys think i should sand my calipers down to get rid of the excess silver paint, or just paint over it?

hmm, maybe i should just get them powdercoated?

 

I have a heater for my garage. You are welcome to paint yours here. It is so easy, just brushes on. Must clean them first.

I think thursday will be a big order day. HEHEHE, just wait!!! My car will be off the road for a couple of weeks even if its warm. Anybody have a plasma cutter?

I am all set for the tires. I guess I get paid a week early so if they come in I am ready. Let Chris know.

 

from what i expearienced brake fluid just melts the paint away. because when i wass bleeding my brakes it got on them and the paint just came off like nail polish remover.... now that they are fully dried and caked on i dont know. i used VHT paint and waited like 18 hours b4 i bled them

 

mike i cant bring my car over to your garage because when i stored it for the winter i took insurance off

im probably just going to take the calipers all the way off, and paint them in my house. i will let them dry a full day before i put them back on. I will let you know as soon as your wheels get in, Chris said probably the 27th, so I will let you know as soon as they do, and you can set up and appointment with him.

 

Make sure you clean the **** out of them with brake cleaner first. And when you bleed them put a hose on the bleeder so the fluid dosen't hit the calliper.

My beater kicks ***! the 300zx! I just had to replace the rear callipers cause they were locked up, cost me $230! That's more than I paid for the damn car. We should meet up at the Auto Show, I can't wait.

 

Yeah, You can bring it over here and put it in the garage while you do the work. I will be out tonight. I work till about 4pm or so Thursday and I am off until Jan 3. I will be out of town from Friday at 4 till sometime Sunday. Like I said, I am around all next week.

 

I will soon have to add a couple of mods to the list below and take a couple off. HEHEHE

 

take a couple off?? got anything for sale??


wooohooo i start my 2 week vacation today! Time to sit around and do nothing! Mike my caliper paint should be here next week, i just ordered it. I will let you know if i need to use your garage. Maybe we can round up a couple of folks one day during next week, grab some beer, and think of the glory summer days when we could actually drive our cars? IM FREE!

 

Maybe have a couple of things for sale. Its all secret for now. I should have everything installed in two weeks.

 

ok well keep me posted!

 

I'm going to make a guess here - after reviewing your list of mods there can only be one thing that's getting done to your Z to warrant the remover of things. My guess is that you'll be removing the plenum and cold air intake to make room for something else? Am I close?

 

Yes. Some of the items are going to take two weeks to arrive before Dick Scott can install them.

 

Anyone interested in going to Kart 2 Kart in Sterling Heights sometime in January ? I've never been but I have heard good things about that place. I think their web site is

http://www.kart2kart.com/

oh and mike does stillen have anything to do with your parts sell off???

 

When I'm back, I'll look into planning something.

Martin

 

Zless, I will have the Crawdford Plenum (Red), Strut bar and JWT Pop Charger to sell. I would like to wait for a few weeks after the new install before selling. You already have everything that I would sell though.

 

i hear the na in your life mike what leaving the building?
the sc is what it is? super!

 

damn mike that was a quick F/I decision! i cant wait.

too bad its a crawford plenum instead of kinetix i woulda bought it off you in a second.

yeah Kart2Kart is the best, we should have a little get together there. my friends go all the time.
