Fuel feed line, it should be right under the booster, or in that general area. Lol

Tightened the bolts in the intake to the intake Y pipe. Why were they loose? Good question.

Filed another police report. Lady night for the second time since moving in these apartments someone pried open my fuel door and stole all my fuel. The supra next to me was also hit "again" really getting sick of this ****. This is the second time I've had to epoxi my clip to the door because it won't close after.

Meanwhile my gf was pissed because she was at hospital with our daughter and I was late picking them up. Poor girl had tonsils removed yesterday

I washed and waxed it with my new Meguiar's White Wax, and used some badass new Turtle Wax acrylic based (I think) tire wet stuff. It's really wet looking, I totally dig it. Anyways, just waxed it the other day with Meguiar's Ultimate liquid wax, some $20 a bottle synthetic wax or something er other. However, I wanted to try the White Wax on this one since it's bright white pearl. I woulda got it a long time ago for my 300ZX but I don't think I'll use it on that since it's not as bright of a white, I'll keep using the Ultimate Liquid wax on it.

Oh, and I put new Rain X wiper blades on it and plasti-dipped the wiper arms since they were a little old and ratty looking.

I've had good success with the same brand black wax, however in. Order for it to look good you need to go over it with a second clear wax to make it "pop"

Well I'm way too tired to do it now, plus I have to go to work again in an hour or so. I'll probably wash it the hell up again tomorrow or Sunday unless it doesn't rain and get stains all over it. Maybe I'll hit it with a car wash+water solution in a spray bottle to wipe off any dust or dirt that gets on it and hit it with a plain ol' Meguiar's or Mothers carnauba wax and see if it makes much difference like you say it should.

Tried to decide whether or not to red out my indicators with some vinyl tint. Think it looks good, once I get some brighter globes that will show up amber I'll re-apply some properly. Not bad for $4 worth of vinyl off eBay, I can always remove it unlike the red tinted paint. Still looks amber-ish in bright light, but cleans up the rear end a bit

Also, I put a turbo blanket on the GT30
