Off the subject, I called Darren at Intense Power today. He told my Do-Luck front bumper was on the container and should be here(my house) in 2 week. I ordered it in the beginning of January, holy **** happy as hell (please don't get damaged in shipping)

Lucky that it's coming so quickly. I hope you get it soon and in one piece.

Thanks I figure in 2 weeks from yesterday would be the 30th of March and with 19 working days before the 25th that should give me time to get it painted.That's if it comes in one piece and to the right house.

Man this FI stuff is expensive! lol i keep having to throw in a little more money for little odd ball things. today they called me and i needed to replace both my belts and the filter i got from vortech was all smashed up so i gotta get another.... and i also got a aem fuel pressure guage to go with the aem boost and wideband... but they did a base pull on the dyno yesterday and i got 246 hp and 237 tq. the only thing i had for mods was steve's old cb exhaust so i thought that was pretty darn good for stock! so im up to almost 9000 bucks now and i still need wheels.. lol oh well totally worth it!

It is amazingly crazy how fast everything adds up, I've done the figures for SC, ST, and TT and every so often i find something else that i need to get as well and the numbers just keep going up and up and up..... I just hope you're not charging all of this to your CC, that's going to be a harsh payment/interest you're going to be paying. But it's good to know that you're not doing anything half *** when it comes to getting all the proper materials for your SC kit.

I wish I could do that, but I need to wait for a missing part for my Injen cai's so I can put everything back together, it should be here 2morrow, then it's time to have some fun

So I am looking for a light weight battery that has a good amount of cranking amps, but since I store my Z in heated storage.(Mini storage) It dose not need a ton of cold cranking amps. I am looking at Jegs because I can get a little discount.Looking at a couple,Braille B2015C/15LBS/574CA/1067PCA OR Braille B3121C/21LBS/892CA/1380PCA. Any info regarding or thoughts would be helpful.Thanks guys.

Having it paid off probably freed up a lot of income.

I still have a little ways to go.

dammit! At least you guys know where to find the TCZC threads. I think all our events should be started or posted in that section, and everything else like FS stuff and random **** will stay in the regional section.
