Chris Fith - glad your car is not acting up anymore. Thats great news.. how much were the plugs? and what did you get ? I have a brand new set in the garage that a customer left behind.. If they are what I need - I will be doing mine as well.

 

lol so true - still on a mission with the subaru -

 

Jake already got this info...but I thought I'd post it so the rest of you guys can see what I got.

Mike you may want to get these for your Z.

These were at Oreilly's for like $10 a piece....this is what was recommended for the OE type plugs. They are double Platinum plugs....like $6 less than what the Stealership charges.

Anybody else wanting to change out their plugs should do it....probably the single best thing you can do for your Z besides a Tune.

 

I've been sticking with the ngk coppers, changing out every 30k...probably go double platinum on the next interval so i can toss them in and forget about changing so often

 

Chris P runs Coppers also....but only because he ran Nitrous...but he hasn't sprayed in a long time so I think he might change....plus his mileage is getting way up there also.

Do you spray also ?

I changed my last set of plugs around 45k or 50k .... so my set of plugs you saw only had like 20k-25k on them....but don't DD the Z...I mostly drive it on the weekends and for the track or autoX events, so the driving is pretty hard for those miles.

 

Score! I just checked my garage and I got those exact same ones Chris.. Looks like I will be changing out my plugs since I did mine @ 40k and now I have 88K on my ride..

 

thanks fith - added to the list

 

Well the world didn't end, but the lounge sure is quiet this morning.

 

here you go. Just go to advanced auto parts and should be no more than $7 each. I did all 6 for less than $45 I think

Man I forgot all about your rebate thread. Thanks for the reminder.

I need to order a bunch of maintenance stuff myself.

 

whoa thanks faiz - excellent

 

I am down to lend a hand but all I would be doing is getting in your way


I can bring over some much needed "TOOLS" that you don't have or want to purchase ... i hear those "TOOLS"...help make the spark plug change a lot smoother and easier. "Tools" such as but not limited to spark plug socket, spark plug socket extension with locking ends, slim profile ratchet, wobbles and one more item I did not mention but you know what....

 

First DSLR picture - meh - this is tougher than a point/shoot haha

 

I really need to hang out in here more.... I'm at 10 years and 87k miles and all I've done is keep the oil changed and replaced a cam positon sensor.

I could probably use a big once over for plugs, fluids, and bushings and ****.

 

Nope no spray, i've just always figured the copper plugs were better

 

Let me know boss..

 

Faiz is the KING of dealz... Im still getting you a shirt that says I <3 Slick Dealz!

Miss ya bud..

 

ColecatZ, if you need anything done on your Z like fluids, brakes, suspension, or clutches.....Jake is the man to go to. No doubt about it...you will be in great hands.

-------

Huge thank you to Jake for helping me bleed my brake lines today !

I always enjoy doing work on the Z with him....you will learn a bunch if you pay attention.

I now have a new fresh bleeded brake line of Motul RBF 600 in my Z ready for a new year of Tracking & AutoX.

Thanks again to Jake !

 

^^^anytime Chris. your brake fluid needed a good change. I had the power bleeder but we did it manually anyway, took a little bit more time but its better IMO since you have a buddy to help and pump the brake pedal.

I need to make it out to your crib more and hang out.. It was bada$$ just chillin next to the firepit with an ICE COLD DOSXX..

 

You guys see the circuit of Americas lone star Chapter thing got cancelled without notice? Thats fkt up... were any of you guys registered?
