Hey Robert are you going to share some photos of your Z with the new rims and bits? Anymore stunning backgrounds this time???

 

Yes. When I go home in Sept for R&R I plan on having two photo shoots done throughout Colorado. Have a trackday in the works, and a 5 hour drive time cruise thorughout the mountains of Colorado.

 

Sounds perfect backdrop for next round of picys.

 

You're in New Zealand! There has to be plenty of spots for beautiful pictures.

 

When you're right you're right. So many gorgeous places to take photos, especially with sea as a backdrop. Aaah.

 

Oh i'm sorry, its just those stock wheels look so damn goofy on that car i had to say something

 

So its just my personal car. You're an idiot.

 

Got it, thanks.
Did you get tires yet?

 

Enjoy life, my friend, for it shall end as you know it when the kids come.

 

Wife & I don't want kids so I have that covered.

 

Good luck, that.

That's what they all say at first. Our first five years of marriage were bliss... one long honeymoon. And then...

...the maternal impulses strike!

I my case, it was good-bye by Hurst/Olds, hello 4 door Ford.


Like a said, enjoy for now!

 

Well I feel pretty good that her/we won't want kids for at least another 2-3yrs. So if it does happen the Z will be paid in full.

 

Not much really to report. Purchased tires for the Works; Yoko Advan Sports 255/35 & 285/35-19. Thanks to Rickdogg I have a set of Project Kics R40 lugs w/ locks also. Went ahead and picked up the Braille mount & a "FairladyZ" third brake light. Unsure if I'll install the third light or not. Waiting for delievery of the replica Nismo CF Limited Edition engine cover from Z1. Saving up for the StopTech BBK and a set of Konis. Looking at some body kits but nothing crazy. Once that is complete JWT TT. I'll be home in less than a mount for updated pictures.
