Hi guys, I have a really random question. My gf is korean and I'm trying to write a note in korean for her. Problem is i don't know any hangul haha.

Basically I'm looking for somebody who'll translate something I write in english and type it in korean so I can directly copy and paste it. I'm hoping somebody can help me out and not be an a$$ by writing something completely different.

If so lemme know and I'll pm you.

thanks! -_-''

cliff, did you ever install the CF hood on your Z? i have a seibon OEM one and for some reason, it seems to be "raised" by the passenger side headlight:



sadly, i'm not with the Z until may... but anyone else run into that problem? do you guys think the body shop will be able to "bend" it to look normal?

Well, It was fun while it lasted...

I saw a wreck and stopped to help. Even with my hazards on and everything, some idiot crashed into the back of it and slammed the front end into the guard rail. Waiting to see if USAA totals it or not...

haha, I'll know on thursday. I should be able to "buy back" the car form the insurance company. then i plan on parting out everything i possibly can before bring it to the junk yard. I've only got until Feb. 10th though, then i'll be stuck in Korea....

a mexican hit me. his car/insurance/license was all from mexico so the cops couldn't tell me right away if his insurance was good in the states or not. i have full coverage though so thats a battle my insurance company can worry about....

damn... well, as long as you have full coverage. too bad insurance won't pay for your turbo =) great to hear that you weren't harmed... but if it does goto the junkyard, hook me up with the lights and the side mirrors =) my side mirror got hit with a block of wood on the fwy and the only one the dealer had for sale was a red one. so i painted them black so they could match, but they chip really easily... yours would be perfect =) and one of my headlights were affected by the block of wood as well x_x

anyways... we'll make sure to grab some drinks and talk about the Z when you get here. good luck.

Wow Andrew that is really bad. I have never installed my CF hood. Actually I just recently sold it. But I would make sure that the hood was not warped.

Mpact you gotta be shitting me. That really blows. I guess we will be seeing a couple part out threads. I probally will be interested in some stuff.

claims adjuster shows up tomorrow and i'll start with the part-out threads.

i thinnk we can work something out with the side mirrors but hella people are making offers for the headlights already. I didn't even offer anything for sale yet... lol

I look forward to getting some drinks with you guys though.

Right now I'm stuck between the G8 GXP or the G37S. Maybe I should just wait until I finish my tour in Korea to get something....

to mpact: That sucks! Well, I guess you can buy 370z or something better.

to definitionxmk: Do you have a plenum spacer or crawford plenum? It might be better if you remove the battery cover. Some people trim the inner structure of the seibon hood to make it fit properly.

^i'll see what i can do with the battery cover and trimming it... but i think it's just warped from sitting around too long. i'm thinking about placing some phone books on top of a towel and setting it ontop of the hood for like weeks and warping it back down. i'm at work now, but i'll post some other photos later. i bought it from volk350z and i saw photos of it on his car before with dead on fitment. but yeah...

so when are you going to hang out? i really want to check out your Z =)

I'm in Pusan right now for my last interview tomorrow... It has been a month and a half since I drove my car. Battery is completely dead for the second time. Something is draining my battery juice and I also need to fix my boost drop issue before going in for remapping dyno session... Boost peaks at 16psi then drops to 12psi d@mn it... I would like to see consistant 15~16psi all the way to 7000RPM in order to break 600WHP..... You are more than welcome to tag along with me as I will be driving around town to fix these issues next week or come to the remapping session.. I'll let you know my schedule here.

Mechanic took apart the window motor and fixed it! Works like a charm! Went to the Young-San electronic district(?) and bought some bootleg movies... (I know I shouldn't, but couldn't resist... Well, I watched two of the four I bought from the movie theather->Iron man and the Sex and the city <- for my wife.. she wanted to see it again..yay!) Then, I went over to my friend's shop to install new gauges... Shop owner is into DSLR.. So we had some fun with it --> https://my350z.com/forum/media-share...f-my-ride.html
