New Extended Oil Change! I have switched to Mobil 1 Extended Performance Synthetic Oil. Guaranteed for 15,000 miles. I have also switched to the Bosch Premium oil filter which is also good for 15,000 miles. This will help the frequency with my commute to Palm Beach.

Summer tune up continued! I have performed the seafoam treatment in the vacuum line. Also rotated my tires, seems like I just had them installed! Received the $40 rebate card in the mail yesterday for the tires.

Summer Tune up time! I have purchased the extended performance oil by Mobil1 along with an extended performance filter from FRAM. Now I will be changing my oil half as often every 10,000 miles. In addition I have replaced my tires with Hankook Ventus V4 ES with a 50,000 mile warranty. Also had some car trouble, the spec died on I95. Turns out it was a bad MAF. Repair was about $350. Luckily my insurance company covered the tow charge.

It's fall maintenance time again! I have rotated my tires and changed my oil. Again using Mobil 1 Full Synthetic 5w30.I'm hoping to change my spark plugs in the 60K range. I already have bought a set of 4 Bosch Platinum tipped plugs...

Its that time of year, summer maintenance! I have rotated my new tires, they were about due at 4,000 miles. I attempted to clean the Nismo CAI filter, but its still jet black. I'll probably have to order a replacement soon, it has about 45k on it. Last thing I did was the seafoam treatment, so far in my gas and vacuum line. Right before my next oil change and I'll put it in the crankcase too!

Had my new tires installed last week, they are very nice, cannot give a review quite yet, check back in a month or two. See right for picture >>>. Also had my coolant flushed, since I'm close to 50k.

Bought a set of tires from Discount Tire. Yokohoma S.Drives! Used their price match feature, TireRack had them for $5 less a piece. DT called me back within an hour and the rep matched it with free shipping AND free valve stems and the hazard replacement warranty for just over $500 shipped!

I was able to rotate my tires in my own garage last night! They needed it very badly as I could see my fronts were very worn down when compared to the rear tires. Its looking like I'll need to buy tires by summer of next year. Happy New Year to all!

Autocross at PBIR! I had a blast yesterday on the Kart track. I managed to get a best time of 60.803 in the STX class. Unfortunately I was outclassed by much better cars. However, I did manage to beat a Mustang GT and a 350Z with my laptime. Thanks to Equipe Rapide for organizing the event!

I have found a new forum specvforum.com! Complete with similar features of msv. I have ordered a louder horn kit (PIAA 85112 - 500hz & 600hz). I also have a Escort 9500ix Radar Detector on order. Just too many cops and too many bad drivers down here in Florida! Check back soon for pics.
