Unfortunately I noticed the water 8 hrs into 11 hour trip from NJ to MI. Maybe it’s a similar issue to yours and it’s not showing up in my usual 1 hr commute. Guess there’s only one way to find...

So the plot thickens. It’s been raining near constantly over the past 36 hours and have been driving in rain that is heavier than the when I saw the water near foot well but see no water there now....

Forecast is for heavy rain tomorrow so I guess we’ll find out soon... appreciate your input Nate!

I thought so too, so I ran the ac on my way to work today and didn’t notice any water, so has to be a plugged drain right?

Anybody have a good DIY for unclogging the sunroof drain? I noticed some water on the passenger side floor mat dripping from under the glovebox when it was raining...

Today marks 5 years to the day I bought the zhp. A quick calculation showed I have driven approximately 93200 miles during my ownership, almost matching what the car had when I bought it.

My wife and I went to NJ for the weekend and on our way back, when I stopped for fuel in Ohio, I noticed that my front driver's side tire has been worn down to the threads at the edge. So I ordered...

Ordered the following brake parts recently -


Jurid Front and Rear Brake Pads

I think I can probably wait but I’ll just visually inspect the brakes this weekend to make sure they are not completely shot.

I’m fairly certain blank rotors are good enough for my purpose but I...

My research wasn’t very extensive to be honest. initially I thought I would get upgraded calipers (wilwoods probably) but I realized that spec e46 folks use stock calipers and I thought that should...

If I didn’t have any intentions of tracking I would’ve just bought OEM replacements. I’ve driven a couple of zhp’s with aftermarket brakes but none of them had the initial bite the OEM brakes provide...

After almost exactly 80k miles and 4.5 years under my ownership, my zhp decided to tell me that she wants new brakes. The yellow/amber brake light lit up on my way to work today. The set of brakes on...

I did add it but I didn’t run the engine after. I was thinking about this then other day and I think the engine ran like crap because the fuel in the fuel lines that didn’t have the fuel stabilizer...

Took the zhp out of storage.

Changed oil and filter.

Swapped wheels back to Arc8 wheels with Michelin PSS.

Took the car to a touch less car wash.

Yup, the space is quite generous but this being the end spot, it does get hit with quite a lot of snow. But il take snow over risk of door dings anyday. Also I park closer to the other side than I...

Tried again. Hopefully it’s working this time...

I thought I’d get this done 2 weekends ago but didn’t happen. But this past Friday, I swapped the arc8/pss for worn out 135/dws06 and disconnected the battery. I’ll put a trickle charger on the...

Last year I removed the battery from the car and keep it on a trickle charger at home. Will do the same again this year...

Edit: will also swap the arc8’s for the 135’s with worn out tires...

Yup, pretty much what I’m thinking. I thought about using a car cover too but I don’t think my apt folks allow it and also heard a few stories about paint getting damaged while removing the car cover...

Snow is in the forecast at the end of the week which means the zhp will not be driven for the next 5 months or so [emoji853]

I have to decide whether to leave it in the car port at no additional...
