I'd get a midlife crisis car, sir, but I'm not there yet, ye olde phart. I may physically be older than you but my mind and heart are still in their early 30's and hence, have no need for artificial extensions... other than the hair on my head.

Heh heh.... running away now... *WHOOSH*

OK, back on topic...

I discovered that I'm not as OCD as I thought I was. Took 3.5 years of owning this...


Before finally doing something about it...

Thanks, Mikey!

And just got these in...

I don't like using them but they're being put on temporarily for testing and break-in purposes while I wait out an overseas backorder/delivery delay. The show must go on!!

On what you ask.....? Heh heh.

Ordered the AEM INTAKES for my HR today. Cost $455 US. That converted to $623.26 Canadian! I will be paying 13% tax on it when I bring it across the boarder! Being a shallow person I chose AEM based on looks and sound

Nice do you know what it was before they tuned it? And or how messed up your air fuel was? Im eventually going to end up with a similar setup but was probably going to do a mail in reflash and stockish cat back. Just gotta wait for my stock cats to give up the good fight. I think you deserve the extra .81hp for actually posting the results.

It was around 230hp after first pull. It was running lean, around 14.2 IIRC.

Rewired the "cigaret lighter" jack on my 07 from only powered when acc or ign is on to always "hot".
This was so the GPS was always powered till I unplugged it.

Hear tell that the newest "in-vogue" thing to do is go "minus-2 but wider" on wheels for weight purposes. 13x12 with a buhzillion degrees of negative cambro, bro!


and wait, didnt you JUST bought some wheels???? why are you buying more wheels?

See above.

Note the word "temporary" and "testing" in my original post.

And nobody said they were for a Z33...

Doesnt matter if its permanently or temporary, running spacers is running spacers.
