We can handle that. Someone just brought us a g35 in a box. We already got the motor 70% built back up. Right now there are about 4-5 350z turbos here. We would gladly help you, if you would like. Right now we are building my 350z motor . Hopefully soon so i can turn up the boost.

Yeah don't you love real jobs? It's a hassle just trying to get to the post office during the weekdays. You also gotta love the winter months, it's dark outside when you drive into work and dark again when you get off. Anyways, even at 7pm, depending on the number of people who attend, are we going to have enough time get everybody in?

I sent you a pm, are you the guys that are in the old speedworks shop? I was thinking about you guys the other day before you posted up, i know that you do a lot of mustangs...specifically the irs cobras...i figured that some experiance with a ford irs is better than no irs at all. Pm me back and let me know how much it will cost and how long it will take.

Ok Guys, here is the latest list:

1) Z-CRA-Z
2) oakmontgolf
3) 3hree5ive0ero
4) walkert
5) jtoddj
6) bommart
7) kwiker

No one wants to pull the trigger and decide on a date, so I will.

Let's do this Saturday December 16th starting at 10:00 am and
going until everyone has dyno'd.

I have confirmed this date and time with Ozzy and we are also working
on getting one of the sponsors to put up some food and drink like last
time.

Make sure you get on the list, because the current list is the order in
which you will dyno.

PM me if you need more info or have any questions.

Damn.. I forgot all about tryin to set another dyno day.. I've been busy with finals and all.. Oh well, looks like Mike did it, so we're still good.

So, it's just like last time.. except the order of the pulls. I say we do it like it was last time. We let the stock Zs go first (if you any mods, then you follow your order as listed above), then we go by the list. That way, we can see the relative gains.

BTW, the $40 is for 3 wideband pulls (like last time), correct?

Seriously, and did anyone else catch the sprinklers of Plano watering the streets last night? I sure did, i wish they would get fined for stupid moves like that.

^that's one of my biggest pet peeves on the road ever. either watering the road more than the grass, during or immediately after a big rain, or watering in freezing temperatures.

it makes me want to snap off their sprinkler heads. not that that would solve anything, but people are just morons. a $3k home sprinkler system will turn itself off if it rains, but apparently businesses don't have this ability.

Hey Guys,

Me and Ozzie are working on getting the area Nissan Dealer's to put up
some Food and Drink, and maybe some free stuff to give out.

Don Davis Nissan in Grapevine has agreed to participate, but still
working on the extent of their participation at this point.

We should have more details early next week.

Here is the list so far:

1) Z-CRA-Z
2) oakmontgolf
3) 3hree5ive0ero
4) walkert
5) jtoddj
6) bommart
7) kwiker

Make sure you get your name on the list so we know how
many to feed as well as the order you will dyno in.

We will modify the list slightly by stock versus non-stock, but
the list will still act as the primary order.

Looking forward to seeing everyone.

Ah, it's so much better when somebody else does all the work for you. Haha, keep it up Mike.
