I can't wait to see your car, your vert doors look sick!

Good luck next week and I'll see you on the 4th!

Rob, I look forward to seeing you on the 4th man. SO far is it looking good and there are going to be a number of REALLY wild Z’s there. I met a guy last night at AAM w/ black ZR... damn it was HOT....black wheels and rear wing.. I swear, when he turned his lights off, his car was almost invisible. Unbelievable..

Summer is a good time to drop that TT in anyway, gives you some time to test the car before and after the install and really notice the difference.

Hey guys, (Jamnew, Ken Corsun, WTF No Turbo, and BoldenMd)

Next Saturday , March 4th, AAM is having a dyno day in Gaithersburg Maryland (not too far off 270). The more ZR's that show up the better Bobby Ritz and I will feel. We always seem to be in the minority in this area.

There will be a LOT of Z’s there plus the BBQ, tour of their facilities, opportunity to dyno your car if you chose or just see what others are putting down. And of course the most important part of all… A drive up to Sugarloaf Mountain with 35 - 40 Z’s in the afternoon. It is a great time to hang out, meet some new people, find out information about the cars, (detailing, road courses, maintenance trips, safety etc) and just a fun time for all.

Here is the link to the thread by AAM…

https://my350z.com/forum/mid-atlantic/172126-aam-bbq-dyno-day-it-s-official.html

The first post has all the details.

SO far it looks like over 30 guys from the boards will be there… There will be a few corporate sponsored race and show cars along with some of us that are just silly enough to dump our own hard earned cash into our beloved cars.

I hope to see some fellow drop top’s next Saturday there…

That is cool. To each their own. You don't have to come to purchase anything or use the dyno. This is an event to hang out /spend time with friends and learn new things for the cars. But I understand. I hope to meet up with you sometime in the near future. I will be showing in most of the Mid-Atlantic car shows/events this season, you can't miss my car. Stop by and say hello if you see me.

I will say that I and others have been meeting with AAM to discuss changes/improvements within their business and I think most of us are happy with the route they are heading. They have a great staff upfront and even their shop guys have been shuffled and some new experienced mechanics brought in to make sure everything is up to snuff and quality is maintained for everyone.

Anyway enough of my opinions. Everyone have a great week.

I second Brent's post. Mike and Dave have personally reached out to many of their repeat customers to get us involved in round table discussions of our Z's, our expectations, and new product development.

Events like this allow fellow Z owners to hang out and discuss each others cars.

I look forward to seeing the many mods that Brent has recently added, as well as other Z's that have been tuned/modified by AAM and other shops.

That said, I really look forward to seeing USM HM 350'z VRT tuned Jim Wolf TT.

It's all about the camaraderie to me. Plus, they're feeding us.

Did you talk to APS? If the seals were bad, it shouldn't have been overly difficult to have the turbo fixed or replaced.

What ended up happening? Did you get your problem fixed?
