F'n A..... I'm really getting to hate this place. For every decent new member, there's 99 bozos who should have just stayed on Facebook's monosyllabic, misspelled Z groups....
So tired of "that" guy. He's on EVERY car forum. "Hi, I daily drive a Koenigsegg and want to make 500whp with my 200whp project car. I have a budget of $20 and some pocket lint. What should I buy"?

Looks like like 260DET and BabyZ33 are becoming fast friends … I'm in for entertainment value but good-lord if I could count the times a thread starts like that and if it ever progresses into anything respectable.

I contest …

'declined' insinuates that expectations cant get any lower...in the current state of the platform, things will continue to decline, and decline, and decline...when you think things cant get any worse … oh, they will!

Just when you think expectations cant get any worse, check out my new ride.



But at least the view from the restaurant was good.

It's weird with the 350Z, it was a leap forward from previous Z's and still is an advanced design in a lot of ways yet it's now cheap enough for the newbs to buy and become instant drifters. As time dictates the older they get the more miles so in that way the 350Z is becoming obsolete. I've noticed that most of the new posts are about basic mechanics applicable to any car but if newbs are chased away then the forum will gradually die. So viva the newbs, providing they have read and understood the OP

Which does not mean that I'm going to get involved in basic questions, basic knowledge is good newbs
