This won't help. I got the Samco Hoses in UPS today. Only took me 2 weeks and $154. I want to see yours installed. Saturday. Sunday I will do my install for the hoses, pi-thons and short shifter.

FYI....don't drive in on I-96. Road construction, and freeze-thaw has made everything east of the Southfield Fwy reeeeeeeealy bad! There are potholes and cold-patch that would swallow the Z. Hopefully I-94 or I-75 is better.

I'll be there Sunday, and may stop by Friday afternoon since my office is only a few blocks away.

I am refusing to pay for this shipping. are you guys installing them yourselves. Doesnt seem that difficult but thats what I always think... maybe we should meet up and knock them all out at the same time

installed them last night - very easy install. didnt get one of the hoses done because we ran out of time, but the others were very easy. if you come to autorama check them out. theyre a bit more bright/neon colored than i imagine, im not sure if i like them yet. i'll try to get a pic up to link to.

Yes I do want it. I was looking at the hoses and clamps with confusion last night. Can I get it from you Saturday at the show? I will try and be there when you are at your car.

Hey, those who will be at Autorama Saturday, what are your cell phone #'s? Mine is 616.560.4664 (Ryan). I'll be there along with a couple guys that have Z32 TT's. I'd like to meet up at least for a little bit and it'll probably be so packed we won't see each other otherwise.

I cleared the driveway this evening. I had not driven the car in weeks. It sure felt good to go 124 mph. Hopefully no COPs are monitoring this site. I will beat that speed on Friday 130+.

Aren't they governed at 155? You should have more than enough power to get there

Thanks,

I am going to bring a Pi-thon to lay it next to your hose to see how it looks. I plan to go this morning 1030 or 11 because I want to come home and work on the car.

mdacko, did you have your picture taken with the Xtreme Detroit girls? I saw a pic of a girl who kind of looks like you posing with the girls with the same color Z behind them. Also, where there a lot of Z's their??
