I did a Royal Purple oil change with a K&N Filter today. Going to do a rear end oil change this weekend and recharge my air filter along with a wash and detail wax, if the weather stays nice. Also did a full Seafoam treatment last week since I haven't done it since buying the car in 2007.

Sitting in the back lot at work. I bought the turbo turd for a reason and so far ive driven it once in the past three months. So much for keeping the miles down on the Z.

I got the pan off the block and replacing the HiVol Melling (55HV) with a stock pump. Everything inside is unbelievably clean. I've been using Brad Penn Oil from day 1 and WIX 51060 filters. I'll continue to use them.

Replaced the driver's side spark plugs and wires with NGK TR55s and MSD 8.5 Wires.

Took out AC 41-601s and Taylor Spiro Pro 8mm wires.

Will do the passenger side tomorrow. I also put the A.I.R. Block off plates on. As I am going to remove that also.

Finished the plugs and wires on the passenger side, removed the A.I.R. pump and the EGR Valve.

Now I need to buy a tuner to tune out the two codes. There are no tuners in my area.

I also need to wash the engine it looks like.
