History

08/13/2007

My Z is caught by Google Street View cameras.

06/30/2007

Washed my Zs and took some pictures.

I installed Autovation racing pedals. Heel-toe shifting is a lot easier and they look sweet. Here's a picture.

More maintenance work done by Rush Motorsports:

Energy Suspension tension rod bushings installed. No steering vibration whatsoever while braking. Car handling is crisper with noticeably more feedback from the road. Great suspension mod for the money!

Wheel rotation and alignment done. The alignment reports are here. Left-rear camber is marginally out of spec.

Transmission oil flushed with Red Line MT-90 and differential oil flushed with Red Line 75W90. Shifting is a whole lot smoother.

My second oil change. Things went quickly and perfectly this time. Used Mobil 1 10W30 fully synthetic oil and Nissan Oil Filter (55Y00).

Radiator, clutch, brake fluids flushed by Rush Motorsports

03/31/2006

New windshield installed by Safelite. Windshield looks great, the old one had hard water marks and scratches anyway :)

03/28/2006

Somebody breaks the windshield

01/28/2006

I installed the 300 degree brake master cylinder brace; brake pedal is a bit firmed up.

12/17/2005

I installed smoked clear corner lenses. They look sweet!
