FX is running now, got my belts tightened so they stopped squealing. Next I'm going to check up on all the HFC bolts and see if I can find out why they "bark" when accelerating hard from a stop. Not that I don't like it, it kinda reminded me of the Motul Nismo 350Z racecar.

Hey guys, I have some road rash on the lip of some of my wheels. Anyone know of any good shops around north dfw that can clean them up and take out the "curb scars?" All I've ever heard is that most people ship them off to have them fixed.

PM sent buddy.. if you decide on changing the brake fluid - get the RBF600... if not - just the gear oil..

I will also get a new pump for the fluid...I need one anyway..

Talk to Eric....Wheelfix ... on this forum.

Or call http://www.wheelrepairsolutions.com/

Ask for Eric...he'll give you the best price he can....he sold his Z but still helps out some of us. Tell him Fithamoto sent you.

OK, I think I got that RBF600 when we did my Brembo's at Jason's....but I will definitely get the Diff fluid.

I'll call you later this week to see when a good time would be to come out and drain & refill. Also get you that rock for the Eel.

You're having surgery tomorrow and you're worried about us? Typical wimmenz lol. You take care of yourself and let us know how it goes. I'm sure you'll be fine. Pretty soon you'll be back in your z and it'll be us worried about your *** being in a ditch
