Yeah I don't exactly mind it that bad though, it would fit my lifestyle a bit better, and atleast I'm still enjoying the car without cashing out each month on unnecessaries. I'm tryin to downsize somewhat. I see you got a new Z? Is that one to keep?? Or are you guys leasing that one too?

I can't freakin wait till summer, I cannot stand it at all this stupid weather. I went to take the garbage outside and my damn nose froze in a heartbeat.

Happy belated Billy, hope you had a nice day.
The crab and beer sounds like a good start too that.

Mike-I don't care I just don't like the cold..It gets VERY old VERY fast.

Johnny, no, never heard it. If you are planning to go TT anyway you might as well get it...

If I had to guess with the TT, and no turbo's it will be a raspy sound more then drone.. Old Blue would drone at 2500 rpm....so I would assume the TT would be a bit higher in the rpm..
So cruising on the highway you should be good to go....

Thanks, but I think that the test pipes can make a big difference on the drone. I was told that if I keep my cats, then I shouldnt have a problem. Still not descided yet, but im really thinking about it.

Get the exhaust, it is something for your final uild, which is the best thing to do... It will make your car sound better, and get a bit of performance
Your low end is going to BLOW though... you will have no backpressure.

It will be ALL high end, which might be good on launching

Default Need to get these things out of garage.

Guys,
I have some things that I need to get rid of. Thought I would check here for any interest first before posting an ad in the marketplace.

(2) RC 750cc injectors (about 1000 miles on them) = $350,
(3) Greddy emanage blue = $120,
(4) Greddy strut bar = $50,
(5) brand new crawford strut bar = $90,
(6) stock strut bar = $20,
(7) Greddy radiator breather tank (brand new in box) = $75,
(8) 2003 Touring rims and tires = $300,
(9) Seibon TS II carbon fiber hood (has small crack on inside of hood near latch area) = $300 (never on car because it will not fit over Crawford Plenum).
(10) two nitto nt extreme tires (245/35/19) with about 80% tread left = $100 for the pai

I miss my Z.... when i was at lunch today, I saw a guy in a Z roadster at McDonalds on Rochester Rd.

Let's hope MDOT fixes all those potholes now before I take the Z out of the garage... tires get expensive

Billy has your car been finished. When are you picking it up?

Dil - has your car been shipped? I believe I remember seeing it at last years Autoramma when it was a ST. Cant wait to see it now.
