yeah, i thought about that... but, i can handle repainting a front bumper... 300$ for a repaint is much better than ending up like sharif and ripping pretty much all of your body kit off on the track... *haha*

LOL...I am now on 100% stock body parts, so I should be good to go at the track. OEM is much more forgiving.

 

Just put Ron's steering wheel in your car and it will be perfect! That is the finishing touch that it greatly needs........and a paint job.........and a few more things but we can talk about that in person.

 

i smell sarcasm!

 

^^^This was Roncfp posting on my screename....trying to stir up trouble..as usual^^^

 

Yes, the process of modding can indeed be very satisying.

But the same will happen with a Viper too if you just drive it around town.

I say take it out on the road course. Its a 1/2 hour rush per session that will amp you out with a big time adreanaline high.

Its awesome.

 

figures... damn florida peeps causing trouble in A-Town!

 

I got the same feeling sometimes stormcrow.... I feel like im done with it for now.. But i still love the car and the power..

 

i figured i couldn't be the only one... i still love the car and the power, too...but, i get to wondering is it worth the cost... my car is trouble free, but i could be saving that monthly car and insurance payment... *haha*

 

so you would buy a cheaper car then that doesn't involve payment otherwise???


i cant believe you are selling just enjoy it a Lil bit more till you can get yourself a good second car rather than selling it... unless you really really cant have 2 cars id keep it and get another one

 

Yea.. thats why when i was at forged I didnt want to go all out and buy the hks or get a tt kit.. id rather save the $$ and get a xo2 and stay sc.. and now i love the look of the exhaust.. so im done with the car.. in a few years ill get a new paint job.. but thats it.. BTW i have a DJ appt for tomorrow @10 ill let u know how it goes.. hoping for about 420whp or more..

 

i already have two cars... i have a 2006 Pathfinder for my DD... the Z is just a garage queen / weekend warrior... i'm just thinking of what other things i could do with the money instead of payments on the Z...

 

what exhaust did you go with?

do let me know...hopefully your DJ experience will be better than mine... *haha* btw, where are you going?

 

I got the Xo2 and its hott.. Im going to Sunshine here in Killeen tx.. I hope to see 700whp.. lol

 

never heard of it... who makes it? what diameter?

the only way you're going to see 700whp is to add a Blow Off Value and twin turbonators... hopefully you have the time and money to get this done before the dyno day...

 

I really hate to see you want to go that route. I sometimes almost feel that way, but I quickly bounce back. I guess I also like all the attention it gets. Great looking car though. You two made a great couple, LOL.

 

Luckily I just went to autozone and they had 2 turbonators for the z in stock!! I asked if they had a blow off value and they said they never heard of that part.. I laughed at them and said.. huh.. wtf u guys are dumb!! stormcrow knows his **** u SOB! Then I stormed out the store.. and what did i know but a crow flew right bye me(ironic)..

BTW Xo2 is made by HKS.. diameter is 5"

 

i have a girlfriend so all of the attention i get is wasted...

 

u's a funny guy, j! *haha*

i looked it up after i posted that... the tips are 5"? the exhaust itself is the same as the HKS, right? 2.5" or... a little less?
