So I scored a $75 gift card at autozone...what should I buy? I still have a bunch of detailing supplies left at the pad...

1. Tire Shine, check
2. Microfiber Towels, check
3. Meguiars Wax, check
4. Car Wash soap, check

so what else can I buy? I already changed my air filter and my oil isn't due for another 3k miles...I also have 2 bottles of chevron techron fuel injection cleaner left over...so what YOU do?

 

buy 75 bucks worth of SEAFOAM ha ha jk andrew to make it easy on you ill take it off your hands.

 

i forgot, i still have half a can of seafoam left...i'll throw in another treatment at 3k miles...

 

Update the interior, get those cool chrome pedals and the shift **** skull with some cool R racing floormats.

 

no thanks, anybody else?

 

Buy a Year supply of oil filters.

 

you can hold onto it till you really need something...no?

 

2 cases of mobil 1 and 10 purolator one filters.

 

claybar kit, orbital terry cloth pads, hands tools, di electric grease, anti sieze, ****, the list goes on. Hey, did you know that if you make 5 individual $20 or more purchases, AutoZone gives you a $20 giftcard for free? They dont advertise it, but if you ask them, they will give you a card to have punched out every time you spend $20 or more. Hey Andrew, why did you sell all that Castrol the other day?....dont like it anymore?

 

You have a 3.5. You better buy oil. Lots and lots of oil...

 

A sweet exhaust tip?

 

Hanging dices???



j/k...how about some glass cleaners.

 

The Tornado if they carry it.

 

If you really want to class up your ride, get one of these

I hear they keep them in the back and only take them out upon special request..

 

OBDII scanner.

 

bingo

 

..but 5th gens don't have antennas?

 

yeah, i can hold onto it...autozone gift cards have no expiration dates right?

 

i do have 1 punch on their frequent buyers card...i know over the course of my life, i should have more than 1 punch...but they never introduced it to me until way later...so i got caught behind...oh well, i'll eventually get to the 5 $20 punches...and get my free gift card

the oil runs great...i still have some inside my engine...but i just didn't need it anymore since i'm going back to stock...and regular oil is fine if i don't plan to drive my car hard...

 

no need...my engine doesn't burn a single drop of oil...it never has since the 2years i've own this car

 

nothing. i would sell it for $70

 

good call on the no antenna.. well whatever, you can keep it under your seat and rub it for good luck ..

I say keep the certificate until something breaks and you need the cash to fix it.

 

good idea...i think i'll go this route...but i just wanted to get an opinion from you guys first...since there could be a few items that you had in mind, and i would like to buy...u know what i'm sayin?

 

yea you needed a kick in the responsible direction, it happens lol

 

i would just go farking nuts and by a random orbital polisher... woot! silky smooth baby!

 

yeah, i already have one..and it sux cuz its only a 1 speed...i bought it at autozone a long time ago too...it's the generic kind that u see on the detailing shelf..

 

get a neon-lit shifter

 

I say save it for a rainy day...you never know if something is going to go wrong.
how are your plugs doing? you could always get those rear brake pads

 

plugs and coils changed to brand new OEM like 10k miles ago...and yeah, the rear brakes will be on the look out..

damn colin, i still haven't washed my car since that day...and even that day, it was already a week since i washed it....

 

I've already gone through 5 punches, spent the gift card, and now have 2 punches on my 2nd card. I should have about 3 or 4, but at one time I had 3 cards with 1 punch each and lost a few...

 

does anyone know if the punch cards have an expiration date?

 

Check the front of the card, it should be printed somewhere on the bottom right of it or read the fine print on the back, it should be there too.

 

i looked at it...and it doesn't any anything about an expiration date...front or rear

 

Don't worry, i haven't either. Even after my 1700 mile trip back to Louisiana. I went through rain, and my car is so covered with bugs and bird crap, it's almost gag-inducing

I need to get some more scratch-x, along with some detailing supplies so i think auto zone is on my to-do list for tomorrow, too.

 

A bunch of oil and filters. Nothing mechanical, as Auto Zone doesn't sell high quality stuff that lasts forever like the wholesale priced online Nissan dealerships that only sell OEM parts.

 

I wouldnt buy anything from autozone that isn't a top name brand... I personally thing their regular parts supplier doesn't make quality parts. every fuel pump, alt etc I've bought from them goes bad fast

 

well, i dont plan on buying any "parts" from autozone....the quality of duralast doesn't impress me...at least the base model duralast...i was wondering if i could get some detailing products...or other handy items

 

put together a list of parts you'll need for a tune-up and get those.. oil filter, oil, spark plugs, belts.. etc.

 

id buy lots of hand degresser, oil to last for the next 3-4 oil changes, autozone doesnt offer much else worth buying

 

wax...!
