All,

My good friend and fellow My350Z member Adam Armstrong (screen name Idwin) is preparing to undergo surgery to remove a tumor in his brain that was just discovered about a month ago. Fortunately, it is not cancerous, but it will leave him with varying degrees of both temporary and permanent disabilities.

Due to the nature of this surgery, he will not be able to work for several months. He has already taken many proactive steps to prepare himself both emotionally and financially (such as selling all aftermarket parts off his car and working seven 12 hour days). Since I don’t live close enough to him to give him a hug, I’d like to help him be able to make his mortgage and car notes for the next few months until he is able to work again. Please see THIS THREAD for more specific information from him.

I, along with the support of Rishie from www.AutoRnD.com and with permission of GodZilla and MC, am hosting a raffle to benefit Adam with his upcoming expenses. 100% of the proceeds (less paypal fees and wholesale cost of the item that the winner chooses) will be given to Adam before he goes into surgery around September 15.

Raffle entries will be $5 per entry, or $25 for six entries (buy five, get one free).

The following is a list of items you can choose from if you win the GRAND PRIZE raffle:
Tein hood dampers
GT Spec Carbon Fiber Radiator shroud
ARC Titanium radiator shroud
ARC oil cap
Agency Power brake lines (non-brembo only)
Agency Power clutch line
Hawk HPS F&R Brake pads (non-brembo only)
Project Mu NS Brake Pads (non-brembo only)
GT-Spec front & rear Lower Tie Braces
GT-Spec Rear Lateral Arm Brace

Thanks to MC, *** TWO PREMIER MEMBERSHIPS WILL ALSO BE GIVEN AWAY AS PRIZES!!!! ***

Thanks to istan, a RED ENGINE DAMPER that came off Adam's own 350Z is now in the raffle! This is in addition to the items above, so a total of FOUR WINNERS will be selected.


The winner may pick ONE of the above items, and it may only be for a 350Z or G35. There will be no charge for shipping. Item selection is subject to stock on hand at the time of selection. Installation of the item is the winner’s responsibility.
