oops sorry Jon - havent been here in a few days 
i tried to get my pullies off but due to lack of tools and strength, i couldnt get them off. so i dunno if i can give them to you. i thought it would be much easier to get them off the car

For those who are going to the Dragon and have fun at zdayz in May I just talked to the resort and made my reservation. There are some cabins left and they are saying if someone waits to long the hotel area will be all that left. The hotel area is nice yet the cabins on a side of a mountain are just out of this world. FYI!!!

Did it myself. No air tools needed. I can give you some pointers. I will post tonight a list. There should be a link on here for the install that "ares" did.

How long has the shop on Mound Road been in business? What kind of work do they do or have they done on Z's? I can't believe that there was a shop so close to my place and I never knew about it. Is this the shop that used to be at around 26 and Mound? Does nick's silver z have a carbon fiber hood and body kit on it? If so, I might know the shop.
Mike, I like your new wheels. They look very much like the Nismo rims? When is that Stillen due in and who's doing the install. I've heard that the install can be done in a very short time (like one or two days). Id advise to have it tuned by a professional to optimize performance and most importantly to make sure the air/fuel and timing are ok? Will an upgraded fuel pump be needed or added later if you stage up the kit?

i didn't get a chance to talk to the kid with the sliver z. his buddy says he also has an sti. its at wall st. (16 1/2mile)/ mound. turn in there and turn right into first driveway. it use to be an industrial building so its kinda secluded.
whats a reasonable amount should they charge me for the labor on installing an exhaust?

Dick Scott is doing the install. It will be already tuned for the car and will not need any adjustment until I goto Stage 2. I think I can get a 3.8 Intercooler for free from a buddy that works at Ford. Its for the SC they used to put on the T-bird. He said he has one for me. I think I will get it and wait til next winter to upgrade. One thing at a time.
