[2018] What Did You Do To/with Your Z Today?

[jfa.series1]

Torrential rain in our area all day, kept us from attending a really great car show that I've been looking forward to since last year.  So... it was back to the bench to continue work on restoration & refurb projects.  Today's output: three inspection lights - one complete with new lens and two others waiting on bulbs and lens.

Out for a little sunshine and soon a motor.

After 6 months is fiddle farting around, I got time to get my new 5 speed in.  Got her up in the air first.

 

This below is the new 5 speed from a 280Z, nope not a close ratio, but still has that wonderful 5th for freeway driving. After going to Z con last year, it became

very apparent I needed a new gear to make long hauls. 

 

Believe it or not, this my old transmission below... It actually looks cleaner than the one going into the car!

 

Up up and away... with help from a good friend, (thanks Tanner) I got this baby in quick.  The car wanted to be back together.

Hi Zedy....Looks great, but you need to work with those white safety socks!  ?

[Zedyone_kenobi]

They were getting washed ?

Will be at zcon this year Zeddy?

With all your toes? Transmission vs. Toes, transmission wins everytime for me.

I have not even been paying attention to it bud. Been buys with home remodels, tennis for the boys, and work.  But where is it and when?

I could probably just do a quick search.

 

still have all my toes.

 

Looking for a place to get a nice show quality starter?  My starter is the ugliest piece of my engine.  Would like one done up and OEM new. Any ideas?

I would get these guys opinion,  @jfa.series1 and @Zup

They have show car skills, resources.

[Zedyone_kenobi]

Oh those guys, I prefer more sane individuals LOLOLOL

 

wink wink, nudge nudge!

If you're looking for sane people you're probably on the wrong forum,  just sayin.....?
