Did anyone get a letter from the EPA? I got a letter from them the other day... they want to borrow my Z to do emissions testing.

I recieved a similar letter last year. It wasnt from the EPA but from some third party company that tests nissans.
I didnt let them use my car as a test subject.
They told me that they would have the car for 3 weeks. Give me $150. And change all the fluids.

I had the pleasure of changing a tire on the shoulder of I75 during morning rush hour... A great compliment to the rock chip I received Friday evening. 
Shifty, did you get the exhaust swapped?

Hey guys, what do you think the likelyhood of completing an instal of a single turbo over the winter.
Let me know if anyone would be interested in this project.
I didnt say I was getting one just exploring my options.
If I didnt have to pay for labor I think I might really lean towards getting an ST.

If you want to do a ST project, I'll help.
Let me know if you're swapping exhaust this weekend. I'll help with that too.

A ST project would be something I would like to work on... we'll have to wait and see what you get for Xmas.
FYI -- I saw in the Marketplace (Group Buy) section of the forum they have a new vendor selling the Turbonetics kit for $4675 shipped! Seems like a decent price for a new setup.

The difference with that kit and the kit for 5400 is that one is the tuner kit and one is the complete kit.
I think I have to call around and see which would be most beneficial.

WTT 350EVO Diff
Are there any local people here interested in this item?
I have a 350EVO built 3.917 & NISMO LSD complete pumpkin with NISMO finned cover that I would like to swap for a 3.5 VLSD pumpkin. This has been properly broken in doing figure eights (I almost pucked) and has been to about 20 track days. Fluid has been changed regularly, NO GEAR WHINE of course it’s a little noisy in slow turns set at 1.5 lockup but easley changed. I would like your complete pumpkin including stub axles & $1200.00. Price new on this was $2500.00 Come on up to my house and we can swap them out.

Mike,
I would be willing to help with your Turbo setup if you wanted.
You should pick up the LSD too man
I am always up for helping, and we could get that done over the winter no prob....a solid weekend and I bet it would be on..

Dil-I thought you disappeared man!
Life is good! Glad to see your car is getting worked on and you are not selling it!
Shifty, what did you do with those sound clips/video of my ride?
I have a few other people asking about the EVO2..I wanna pass it to them.
Anyone up for that meet this Sat at Anna Arbor Nissan, should be a good time
cruising afterwards will be a blast!

I hosted the videos on YouTube for 2 days just for the guy to hear and then I removed them from the site.
If you want I can post them back up or email you the files.
I wasn't sure how you felt about videos of you being on the internet so I took them off.
Let me know
