  1. You gonna be at Zcon?
  2. @Hardway Well if I did this right, the part number 72610-E4600 which is $335.73 Edit: That was priced through Courtesy's online portal
  3. @GreenZZZ I just love that color!
  4. On the shrinking disc thing... I bought a set last week a 9" and a smaller 5" and used it some today. That thing is so cool! It works like magic. One minute you have a dent the next its gone. Probably no filler needed. Makes me all grins when I use it...
  5. I actually light the factory side markers. They have never bothered me and I would hate to get plowed because I didn't have them...

    I think we're in. We will have to get there from Fredericksburg but I don't think that's a problem

    I was working out of town early on when we were married and Shelley's BMW Bavaria sprung a radiator leak. I coached her through it from out of town and told her where to take it. They wanted to know who took it out for her. She said she did it. I am not sure they believed her. She reinstalled it and burped it. Texans are tough...

    We needed another car because one of my girls will be driving soon, so we got this. It will be Shelley's daily and it allows me to actually have a running Z... Win, win
  9. That's not expensive...especially if you consider how long you have been chasing drive ability problem s and the associated mechanics fees!
  10. Anything less than six hundred miles is "right next door" for a Texan

    Yes, this ought to help for a while. She was all grins last night when we went out for dinner... I don't know. That's a good question. We will blow through on the way to Texas. We do need to make it down sometime soon...

    Z you at Zcon
  13. That's a lot of money for headlight covers and 5 days to go...
  14. Glad you got it figured out...
  15. Sometimes they have a bore size cast on the side. I believe the stock is 7/8" bore and the ZX is 15/16" bore. Doesn't seem like much but the cross section is 15% larger
  16. The stock master will work but the piston bore is smaller, so you will have more pedal travel to move enough fluid for the larger volume front calipers. The ZX has a bigger bore so pedal travel is less to supply sufficient fluid. I suspect you have an adjustment problem. I would try to get the ZX master in and working at some point...
  17. My money is on a miss adjusted master not allowing fluid to return from the caliper You could test by cracking a bleed nipple on the front circuit to release any pressure and see if that helps
  18. I will chime in here even though you have wisely moved on. The black plugs in the door jambs indicate that the car has had an anit-rust treatment. The rustiest Z I have ever seen had these plugs...
  19. I have a set of those somewhere. They were on my first Z...
  20. Make it Thursday and maybe we can make it too.
  21. I was wondering that too. Might want to make some witness marks to keep an eye on it.
  22. Phillip, Call or text me when you get to Fredericksburg, so we can connect
  23. Roll call! So who's currently coming? I think we will come down for the day on Wednesday and we are at the hotel on Thursday and Friday night. We will be at my mother in laws in Fredericksburg the rest of the week @Zedyone_kenobi @240260280 @Zup @S30Driver @Captain Obvious ???? @siteunseen ???? @craZpaul @jfa.series1 @Marine240z Who else???
  24. I brought a surprise Z home once. It was in the backyard for about a month before she noticed...
