Billy hope you can make it afet your tune.

Hope to see some of you up there!

P.S. my test pipes and exhaust are going to be for sale here soon.
Some things have come up and we are getting rid of the Z.... :-(
That's sad to hear. Good luck with the sale. My fiancee is actually in the market for a white/blue/orange Z ...

Jeff,
I will let you know

I am hoping to sell the whole thing as a package
So I need people with the HR motors to chime in here...

If I get no hits that way I will let you know. I sold the old testpipes to help fund the new ones...I am hoping this momentary "issue" can get taken care of and I get something else fun...

Shiawase, its just a lease man, easy just to turn in and get something else...


Billy, Johnny, Mike, it was great hanging out last night.
I gotta get better at Forza, you guys were killing me!!!

Default score 1 for the little guy

I won my small claims suit against Belle Tire. Full amount. Trying not to celebrate just yet because they have a week to appeal the decision and take it to higher court....but.. I'm pretty stoked! Maybe I'll have some new wheels before I store the Z for the winter .

I got my car back from Speed Industry today with the Nismo LSD, and 3.9 final drive . The new final drive is definitely awesome and I recomend that to everyone. The LSD is very agressive, as in every low speed turn in a neighborhood, it will clunk and make the tires skip a little. But some "spirited driving" makes it worth it. It grips sooooo much harder now, even just normal driving makes it feel like a totally different car. Also, as everyone probably expects, Speed Industry did a great job. They did have the car since 5:30 on tuesday, and I got a call from Jan today at just before 6:00 that it was done. He said they are just swamped with work though. He only charged me for 3 hours of labor and for some fluid, so overall about $250. I can't complain, it seems like a fair price to me. Anyways, that's my little review.

Hey Phreak welcome!! Sweet car man I'm one of the few ppl on this board that live around the A2 area. If you ever see a black Z, tint, with black wheels. That's me. I'm in Japan right now, won't be back till next week, but we'll definitely have to meet up when I get back.

Hope to see you around town, make sure to wave or flash your lights!!

Sweet!

What part of Japan are you in? I'll be heading back there in a week or two. (Tokyo then on to China.)

We definately need to meet up though. A2 sport compact club has weekly meets at 8pm every Saturday night across from the Briarwood Mall. (In front of Damon's or Wendy's) Near the Comerica building.

There's always something going on in the area.

Hope to see ya. Have a good trip back.

- Brian

Wish I could go man but I'm gonna be out of town that weekend. We'll definitely have to plan a big Z gathering at a decided OTD.

Hey Phreak, I think I might have saw you today on Carpenter Rd. Are you either "African American" or "Dark Asian" with a shaved head? If so I tried to wave but I think u were on ur cell phone. tsk tsk j/k j/k
