I was talking about around the curves on the actual "Tail". If you were taking those curves that fast, well you are definitley my hero Brandon!

Was that your first time meeting Bryan Settle?

 

Good call sir, please add your feedback to the thread I started in the VQ section after switching from Stillen to Injen intakes! I hope you got the black ones and not chrome...

 

Haha great point. I'm sure was probably hitting 45-55mph on some of the turns on the dragon...(I was going 100% haha, freaking booking it) I actually liked the roads surrounding better because they were perfect for the z! I felt like a skier in the Olympics going through one of those flag courses on the dragon haha...(If that makes sense)

Also, I actually didnt meet Bryan, he was always busy, and so was I. I did meet a ton of ppl tho, was crazy! Hopefully I'll meet him next year...I think were facebook friends haha.

I sure will! And no, sadly I got the polished aluminum ones, but I have a friend who does powder coating and I think I'm gonna go with wrinkle black!

 

How was attendance? Pics make attendance out to seem low. We have had infinity/nissan meets here in NY with 120-130 cars or so.

 

Attendance was pretty good. I forget the exact numbers but something like 450 ppl, 290 cars, and ppl from 29 states...Someone correct me if I'm wrong!

Some of those pics are from the "Car Show" which was like 10$ more so not everyone entered...there were a lot more cars than just the ones I posted. When I get some more time off work I'll edit some more pics.

 

Dangit I wish I had made it to ZdayZ.. every year it's on the first days of summer classes.

Glad it was fun and good choice on the Injens! 8)

 

Well guys, got the Injens on, love em!!! Gonna get them powdercoated, so I'll update this thread with more info after thats all done. Still deciding on what color I'm gonna paint them, but I'm thinking wrinkle black. Any suggestions?

Anyways, heres a random pic of my booty! (Thats what she said?) Pic was taken at ZDAYZ btw...

ahhh nice! I see you went with the bigger set! Sick bro!

 

I don't know why I torture myself by continuing to come back here.

 

Haha

 

Brandon, i forgot to compliment you on your Zdayz pics bro. looked like a funtime. hope to come to one of the annual Z meets soon.

yeah PC everything black or gunmetal. it's your theme and its working fine.

 

Someone needs to clean his exhaust! Looking great Brandon!

 

Looks awesome. Wrinkle black would definitely be different but you could pull it off.

 

Beautiful! Gets better and better!

EDIT: Make sure to take a video or two of how the new intakes and exhaust sound together!

 

Thank you sir!!! Hope you can come to znationals! I'll be there for sure...

Allan, you are soooo right! I think I'll clean and polish my exhaust tomorrow...haha

Thank you, I'll be picking up the intakes tomorrow, very excited to see how the wrinkle black turns out...

Thanks bro, you're right I need to take some vids with my D7000, never hurts to learn some video skills!

 

in for wrinkle win!

 

Well...just got back from the guy who powdercoated my intakes...They turned out perfect! Also, today, I FINALLY got the couplers that Injen forgot to include, so now I can finish installing the intakes...(The poor UPS guy got owned by my dog though haha...My dog walked right up to the guy, and bit him! I felt so bad, until the UPS guy started cussing me out, threw the package at me, then finally threatened to sue me...I was gonna let him have a free punch, but after the threatening to sue me part, I started to get pissed...LOL)

Anyways, I'm gonna go install the intakes real quick. Here's a teaser shot of the powdercoat finish:

I'll add more pics later today!

 

Sorry to hear about the UPS guy but be careful with that....things can get out of hand with animal attacks.

Anyway, lets get some installed pics ASAP!! Are you planning on getting a comparison dyno run with the Injens? I'm curious to see if there's any difference at all against Stillen's long tubes.

 

Not sure about HP but I know there's a big difference in quality. Brandon, wasn't your Stillen's rubbing real bad?

 

Yea the guy was fine, hes the one that should have been cautious walking towards a big dog he doesn't know...As far as power goes, they feel exactly the same. I've given the ECU plenty of time to adjust as well...

Yea, I had to zip tie the tubes to random parts in the engine bay to ensure that the stillen pipes werent going to rattle...which scratches the tubes, which makes car freak/OCD people like me unhappy!
