Taking advantage of my 4 day weekend and put the Z on jackstands to see what I'll be working with. But first, I enjoyed driving the car in 80F weather. This is precisely why I bought a Roadster:
Excuse the mess in the garage:
Now, let's see what the car needs. As I mentioned earlier, the car needs Inspection II, and fluids look like they needed to be swapped. While on jackstands, I found the typical leaks.
RHS output shaft seal leaking:
Dirty filter:
Guess I'll bite the bullet and overhaul brakes now. Rotors and calipers looked like hell anyway:
Time for motor and trans mounts:
Trans fluid was pitch black:
Rear main seal?
Installed new spark plugs. Old vs New:
So I think this went from maintenance to a rescue mission. This is more or less the stuff I was expecting from this car, so it's going to get rebuilt better than ever over time
