I'm lowered about 0.6". The jack barely gets under my car.
I'll bring my jack stands as well.

 

I have a lo-pro jack that fits under my car and mine is lowered, but I don't know how much.

 

I might need to change my trans, power steering and diff fluids - don't think it's ever been done. You have these on hand, Mike?
BTW, that Mother's Plastic Polish got most of my headlight covers cleared up. It's just some left over on the inside, now.

 

No I don't have any of that in, but I have the tools to do it. Just remember that the manual trans in the Z takes gear oil because it requires something thinner than regular manual trans fluid.

 

I still want to come and install my pop charger and intake tube. What time are you guys starting?

 

Cool. I will probably be out working on my car at 9:00am, so lets say 10:00am for the official start of the tech session. I will add you to the list Johnny.

1. Mike - Oil change, gear oil change, short shifter adjustment, Stillen Engine Dampener, Possible Unorthodox Racing crank pulley, brake pads (3-4 hours)
2. Cris - Fog lights, Z4 style side markers (2 hours)
3. Rob - Sway bar lube (45 minutes)
4. Johnny - Pop Charger & Intake tube (1 hour)
5.

 

What day is this again??

Ill show (depending on the day) just to help out... Im sure while you guys are working on something Ill figure out something that I want to work on too! LOL

 

It is Saturday April 2nd @ 10:00am

 

Most likely Ill show...

 

Nforce1 you have to show, so I can see the paint job on the new spoiler.

 

I was just told my my bodykit should be coming in tomorrow, So I might end up having to take that to have it painted, we'll see what happens. For some reason, I doubt it will show up tomorrow though.

 

I will be PMing the following people with my address to use on MapQuest.

1. Aarif
2. Cris
3. Rob
4. Johnny

 

Sounds great!

 

Lets see if I can get up in time for this one! lol

 

It's 8:30am and I am up so feel free to come whenever.

 

Well, you're up early...

 

I'm a little banged up this morning - don't think I'm going to make it out there today. See ya manana.

 

Well. I think it was an overall pretty successful day. Johnny was a no call no show, but Ty from the G35 side, Aarif, and Cris came down. On my car we changed the brake pads, bled the brakes, fixed my shifter bolt, painted my radiator fluid bottle, and installed my Stillen engine dampener. On Aarif's car we re-installed his grille so it didn't look so ghetto lol. On Ty's G35 he bent the heat shield on one of his Crawford cats so it wouldn't hit. And Cris's parts didn't get here in time so we didn't have to do anything on his car. After the work was done (by noon or so) we all went and ate lunch at BJ's Pizza. Thanks to all who came out. See some of you tomorrow at the dyno day!

 

1. Mike - Oil change, gear oil change, short shifter adjustment, Stillen Engine Dampener, Possible Unorthodox Racing crank pulley, brake pads (3-4 hours)
2. Cris - Fog lights, Z4 style side markers (2 hours)
3. Rob - Sway bar lube (45 minutes)
4. Johnny - Pop Charger & Intake tube (1 hour)
5. Ty- Lower plenum gasket and upper plenum coolant bypass. (2 hours)

Just learned that the coolant line running through the plenum isn't to keep the plenum cool, it's to keep the throttle body warm. We should never need this in Vegas as it never gets cold enough to warrant it. Also there is a heat insulating lower gasket that I want to try out.

 

1. Mike - Possible Unorthodox Racing crank pulley
2. Cris - Fog lights, Z4 style side markers (2 hours)
3. Rob - Sway bar lube (45 minutes)
4. Johnny - Pop Charger & Intake tube (1 hour)
5. Ty- 350Evo Rear Sway, Stillen rear strut tower brace, new suspension (TBA), AEM UEGO A/F gauge. (all frickin day)

Got the work on my plenum done and it seems to work as advertised. The plenum stays cold now. I'm researching suspensions now, I may follow Mikey's lead on the Tein EDFC setup.

 

Somebody went on a shopping spree...

 

Yeah, and I still haven't gotten any rims yet...

 

Baby steps Ty....Baby steps.

 

1. Mike - Unorthodox Racing crank pulley, Tien Flex Coilovers w/EDFC
2. Cris - Fog lights, Z4 style side markers (2 hours)
3. Rob - Sway bar lube (45 minutes)
4. Johnny - Pop Charger & Intake tube (1 hour)
5. Ty- 350Evo Rear Sway, Stillen rear strut tower brace, new suspension (TBA), AEM UEGO A/F gauge. (all frickin day)

 

Is there another ts coming up?
