What did you do to your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

Where did you score the carbon window trim?

I wrapped it. I like it just wish it matched the rest. I have two rolls coming from different companies to see if I can get it closer to the rest. What is currently on there is Vvivid Tech R carbon Fiber. It is more matte and has a texture. I will post more as I try out the different films.

Axis suede and more carbon bits. Finally got around to installing them.

I finally got in my Nismo fuel cap cover from Japan after waiting several weeks. Totally unnecessary but it's a fun thing to do.

Pretty sure it added at least 50hp and requires a tune now. </sarcasm>

Did you spring for the suede cluster cover?

Did you spring for the suede cluster cover?

I did not. Only because I have a carbon cap on it now. I did pick up the suede arm rest, just have yet to install it.

Took my car in for an alignment today before going to road atlanta this weekend. Was excited to test it out on some twisty roads till about 2 minutes later when my exhaust suddenly sounded insanely loud... Turned right back around to the shop and found out my exhaust just... split cleanly right on one of the welding seams. Thankfully got in touch with a different shop that is helping me get it welded back up before the weekend Got in touch with the company that made my exhaust and they asked for a pic of the serial number on that specific section of exhaust and then they are going to reach out to the main company in Japan and see about getting a new part covered under warranty

Did you notice a difference in the steering with the added negative camber? It definitely helps on the track, and help preserve the front tires, but how is the feel on the street? Did it make it darty? Did it affect the on center feel, or turning back straight after completing a turn? I know that the camber can change the characteristics sometimes.

So I didn't get a whole lot of time to test it yesterday because the exhaust split in two about half a mile after I left. Thankfully they gave me a contact who could help weld it and they were nice enough to let me drop it off that same evening and had it ready for me 24 hours later! ! I'm going to have to test it some more and I'll let you know after Road Atlanta this weekend. It was a bit rainy today, and also some conflating variables because I just swapped my wheels back over to my 200tw track setup.

It's probably important to note that my street driving is very different from most people. I live in Western NC so it's 95% twisting and turning single lane mountain roads. I honestly don't think I would own a sports car if i hadn't moved here on a whim at the start of covid but I'm sure glad I did! This is my drive home from work most days:

Awesome daily drive! Looking forward to hearing your opinion on the new alignment once you get some seat time with it.
