Spring is here almost officially! So I took the 280Z home for the first time.
This thread will cover everything I'll do with my car. I have quite a few plans for it long term, but for the first year I will mainly drive it to get to know it.
Here is the current to do list:
- Fix all the lights and speedo (with km/h) so I can register the car - Done
- Register and MOT - Booked for tomorrow
- BC Racing coilovers - in the garage waiting
- Zstory exhaust - in the garage waiting
- Fix the BCDD - the car hangs at 2500+ rpm when warm idling until I get to 10mph. Thinking of disconnecting the system as I will move to ITB later on.
- Squeaking bushes in the rear suspension going over sleeping policemen. - Bought Poly bushings for the whole car, will be replaced as I continue modding.
- Ordered a 2nd hand chrome surround for the front wind shield.
- Ordered a new rubber list for the side chrome trim strip
- General servicing. The dealer serviced the car fully before I bought it, but I want to change the oil etc...
At home finally!
I have temporary Swedish plates for it, but why bother when I can park anywhere for free. They don't even bother writing tickets for foreign cars So I had a business dinner last friday, parked just outside the restaurant for over two hours. No tickets
