The car is offically at Japtrix for APS TT install
Well I dropped off my Z at Japtrix this Saturday. They are not open on the weekends but Gus (westpak) was kind enough to open the shop so they could accept my car and goodies.
It was nice meeting Gus he went through everything with me and was very knowledgeable about the whole process and made me feel really great! I stayed a bit and chit chatted, then left the shop for my 2 hour drive back to Orlando with a big grin on my face
I will keep everyone updated as Gus has offered to take pictures of the process for me.

hey your exhaust looks nice on the car reminds me of my old injen catback, but the piping on that aps exhaust is big, doesnt look the lightest but damn it looks nice, your car is coming together quite nicely, it looked like all they need to do was slap on your front mount and front bumper and your in business, get ready for some craziness

Glad to see satisfaction, the funny things is that the two of you get us confused sometimes since you are both Chris' and when someone talks about Chris' car we have to specify which car.
The APS rep was by the shop and saw your 3" exhaust and was impressed to see it on, said you will be set for when the extreme TT kit comes out

pics pt. 1
Heres a couple of pics of the beginning,
As you can see I had the infamous oil leak on the driver side valve cover which Japtrix took care of not a big deal.
I will have more pics later.
So far everything is going smooth and it should be ready early next week if everything goes well.

Looks good man glad your cars coming together. I havent been to the shop for 2 days so hopefully my motor is already mounted in my baby, oh i miss it so much.

The motor install got slowed down as we are waiting fora part from Nissan that was not in stock, one of the power steering tubes was badly worn and much easier to replace with the motor out but we should have it here today.
