I have a long list of things to do before I go to Gary's.

-Pick up OEM exhaust from Mikes.
-Pick up Parts from Nissan.
-Drop that Crap off at the house.
-Go the the Dealer for new car and make a deal. ( I have to do this today because they have my Z and I have their car.)
-Drive the Z home, get alllllllllllllllllllllll of the parts.
-Drive to Garys shop and rock it out.

Do you have black wheels on your z? what size are your's? Looking forward to meeting you Sunday.

No wheels for me so far.

For the rims you mentioned I would do a staggered setup... 18x8.5 / 18x9.5. 20's are too big IMO. With those rims you could throw on some 245s/275s.

Do you know what your offset options are?

Jeff I agree on the tire Size
I think thats what Billy has and it is just a great stance.

Mike H. He will let us all know when he gets the car
Right now it is just speculation.

Dil-he ordered a bunch of gaskets thats all.

Also for this Sunday at 7:00pm at the Redcoat. (across from Duggans)
Looks to be a good outing. Hopefully we can get H8bumps, and Johnny to come too
sad I will not have my Z though.

1. Daytona Jess-AJ (Will not have my Z though)
2. The Kinn-Steve
3. Zbrid -Craig
4. Zminus
5. jeff91ta
6. Blue Performance Z- Billy
7. Shifty -Mike

I just got a ticket. It was a state trooper, and he was a complete dick! I was driving down the freeway at about 80mph. There was construction and the speed posted was 60mph. He pulled me over and wrote me up for 75mph in a 45mph. WTF. He gave me the ticket and said have a nice day and walked away before I could even ask him why 45mph, when it was 60mph posted. I even went back and checked.

If I cant get this reduced it is 5pts. F&^k!!

You should go back and take photos of the speed posted in that area, setup a court date and keep your fingers crossed. You might have a better chance of fighting the ticket or getting the points waived if it was written up incorrectly.

I was leaving my meeting with corporate around 5:20 and I seen a female in a blue 350z on her phone. Never met or seen her, so I haven't the slightest clue, but figured i'd ask.

Yeah whoops, I hope I didn't get her in trouble. That's cool though. My corporate office is right there North West of Haggerty, on Cabot Drive.

Figured there can't be many 6-speed daytona Z's with female pilots out there!

Hey everyone, it is official. I will have a new car monday (well not new, but a different car). If anyone is up for helping me swap parts on the car for the weekend I would appreciate it.

The only parts left are MREV, Plenum Spacer, and Crank Pulley.

Headers are also on the car so if any of you feel confident enough to take them off and put the car back together for monday, you can keep them. I just dont see it happening no offense.

If I cant get this stuff off of the car this weekend its going with the car.

Lets start guessing. I'm thinking he's gonna go with the S4. 4 doors, practical for all year round business, and real fast.

Getting the same car AJ.

They gave me 20k for it and I didnt get the other one for what we discussed.

If you can find one for that price anywhere in the country I will stop this deal and get it.

This one has 39,000 miles.
$3,000 in wheels and tires and is STILL less then what you are going to pay.
