Thanks guys! Wow I never thought somebody would say my car's sexy haha. That's strange for me to hear.....

Lee thanks for the offer on the popcharger, I think I'm just gonna stick with the DE airbox until I find an 06.

The bumper is an aerosync. It's a replica of the Nismo V1 sold by Gruppe-S. I've heard the fitment of these are normally pretty good, but as you read I'm not 100% satisified with mine (maybe like 80% lol). But good thing about these is they're polyurethane, so they shouldn't crack easily like the fiberglass replicas.

The only non-fiberglass V2's are from Shine Auto. And they cost about $550 shipped for just the front bumper. Pretty pricey but apparently quality is top notch.

 

Looks nice, Rob. I'm with Mike. When is our next meet? :P

 

meh, i'm not a fan of add-ons. i like things to look OEM. i'd rather get a new bumper with a CF diffuser, to carry on the CF look to the back.

speaking of CF, my fenders and skirts are still in storage above the garage. not sure if i'm going to put them on now, lol. i'm seriously contemplating just adding a cat-back and maybe a tune, and keeping it that way for a couple of years - pay it off, then sell it and get either a black 370, or a used FI machine. twins would be nice, but it would have to be done by forged.

why not keep what i have? vert (extra weight, plus i love the coupe look), and it's an AT. i should've held out for those 2 things, but the deal was too good to pass up.

 

Sexy is something that doesn't always get tossed around. My car is not sexy whatsoever. It might look good here and there at certain angles, but it doesn't have the smooth flowing lines of the Z. Therefore, I don't get a chance to enjoy personal sexiness with my car LOL. That came out all bad.

 

You guys see this??

Rob,
The car looks really nice man!

Now you need to tinti the windows, and get some better wheels for it.
Keep the rays fro Track events, and get some nice looking black with a nice lip wheels man...

Some really good lookin cars on here now!
Man I guess I am the weirdo I never have added a cosmetic change to a car of mine....hmmm maybe I need to.

Scott, or you can sell it, and buy what you want.
Now is the time to sell it everyone gets the itch for a convertible sports car when the weather changes over. What do you have to lose, if you take a small hit ohh well you will have what you want.

Buy an 07 or 08 coupe with a six speed...

 

this just looks sooooo bad *** though, heh.

after a bit over a year, i've paid down enough that i could sell it for $15k right now and break even. it's only got 40k miles, so i could probably easily get that. i just want to have one more summer of top-down fun, though....

i change my mind as quickly as tiger woods changes condoms. who knows what my fancy will be next spring!

 

I would defintely be interested in seeing this.

 

Knock Knock

 

Hell yeah. Looks awesome!!

 

Who's there?!?!

 

Mike K holy crap how ya been man
Lazy *** give me a call dude!!!

Scott get an HR motor car and you will LOVE it, they are so much faster then the old DE's that it will keep you occupied for a while

OR do the smart thing and buy a used Z51- or Z06 Vette like we talked about....
Destroy everyone on this forum with it...hahah

 

haha no update to this thread at all today! I guess everybody's out driving, I know I was

Regarding next meet, we'll have to wait for a clear weekend. Anybody need to install parts? I still gotta do my brake job before May but I have some time.

If the weather is clear, I'm gonna drive the Z up to Oakos to pick up some stuff on April 2nd, maybe we can have a mini-lunch-meet if others have that day off (Good Friday)

 

I had a front sway bar to install, but it's looking like I'm going to skip it and sell it. It's a total PITA to install..and stiffening up a FWD car is sorta pointless.

 

Saw datona Jess today out on ww. z looked great!

 

LOL - I have a small pile of parts to install but I'm short a hand to do it.

1) Drilled and slotted rotors w/ Hawk Pads (Need to p/u SS lines & Motul)
2) Need to finish aligning CF Hood
3) Greddy Ft Strut Tower Bar (I lost two spacers otherwise I'd have it on.)
4) B&M Short Shifter
5) Tommy Kiara Shift **** (Should be in soon. Although, my cast is scratching the hell out of the OE shift **** so TK will wait till I'm healed.)
6) Tourenn Rear Bumper (Got it yesterday)
7) Wicked Tuning rear radius arms and SPC bolts (Had them for a year)
8) Roll rear fenders
9) Longer studs and 8mm spacers in front and studded spacers in rear. (Need to measure rear clearance after rolling.)

I'm really over having this cast on. Writing sucks, typing sucks, it's hard to even use a socket wrench without it slipping out of my hand (yes I tried this last weekend), can't go shooting, it's killed my personal love life , waahh waah waah LOL - Sorry for being such a woman. I see the Doc next week. I want this bloody thing off. Pray the X-rays have good news.

 

Dude your car is STUNNING!
I wanted to say Hi thats why I pulled in.
But you were in the Honda then took off...

I will catch you out there again sometime.

Brian-luck man!

 

my coil overs shoud be showing up this week i think my a arms might be closer to two weeks though.

 

I should find out next week when I'm headed to China and Japan. I'd like to schedule an install party again as soon as I have definate dates I'm in the country.

 

Lol that's not a small list Brian....Give me a call if u need any help tho since I'm so close and I owe u for all the times you've helped me

Aj now I understand ur txt, I was like WTF is wdwd?

Like i said, for me it's just my brake stuff that's left. I want to fix the bumper but don't think there's anything I can do.

Weather is looking promising next weekend. Let's start thinking about a meet
