before I come off like an as$hole or a tough guy, you already made a comment about my wing. I and think I know what I am driving and it's not a civic. I will see you some day, you can laugh then, but I will smack you in the face, because that **** is disrespectful.(easily say you don't like it, that's not disrespectful)You don't go around acting like that unless you want some one to put you in your place.

Whoa guys. WTF... it's Spring, not the middle of winter in Antarctica. Nothing wrong with a wing that actually functions for a car that goes fast. Can't judge unless you see it in person.

Nah, we paid cash for the supplies, machines, tools, and labor. Greg was there to 'help' by shoveling before his Gucci sandals got dirty... lol. J/K

Steve helped for the weekend by drinking all my limoncello and puking in my basement bathroom sink.

But it turned out good, and we're happy with it. Just have to take the baby steps to afford landscaping on my scale.

Jeezus, people love replying to my craigslist ad by giving me advice or hate mail about my cats. WTF!

I sold my Nismo air duct! yay! Sending that off tomorrow morning to California. I still want the diff cover.... but I should probably focus on the exhaust first.

I'm worried about my Crawford plenum and Ingall's engine dampner. I sent that off to a buddy in MS and haven't heard about it in over a month.

Nice,except the puking part. I made the mistake of watching one of the home and garden shows, not even the whole show.

I hate those H&G shows. It's never realistic. Projects take me 3 times as long and cost too much or go over budget. They always make it look so easy and w/o any mistakes or snags.

Well, I'm signing off for the night to spend time with the missus.

Jay, if I have time tomorrow I'll give you a call about those dollies.

With 600+whp I really don't think you even need to say anything...LOL.

Ah, some times people say things without the full story. Maybe Nismo can apologize. I dont think it looks that bad on your car. Not my cup of tea for a street car, but you pull it off with the TA's making it not look ricy.

I hope we can all get along on the first meet. Hostility in clubs is never fun.

Dude made a comment when I first posted a pic of my car when I joined he asked if my wing was big enough, then the second comment. I don't like that I have to resort on saying "I will slap him", that's not cool, and I would never disrespect Dave or his house buy getting into a fight.With that being said I grew up with the stupid mentality when some talks **** you punch them in the face.

I know man. But you gotta remember, opinions are like *******s, every body has one.

Wanna know how many times i have been given **** about my age and the mommy and daddy mantra? How about me being young driving an old man sedan? Wayyyyy too many times to find it funny any more, but i just ignore the **** or try to find humor in it. They obviously dont understand so it is w/e. Ignorance is bliss.

if i were in your shoes, i'd just say somthing along these lines, "ahahaha thats funny. But even with this wing, my car will **** on your car in every single performance category."

Keep it real man. Cant wait to see your car at the meet, and meet all the new guys period. Should be a good time.

Also, I love your TA style wheels.

Wise in your in youth you are, damn hood mentality (get you hand out my pocket) the next guy won't get a reply. The only reason I am on here is to get all the info I need that pertains to what I am doing to my car, and meet some local Z owners. I have to realize that once I post a pic that give the whole world the right to comment good or bad. Thanks again WannabeSS I can't wait to see all the Z's & G's in some group pictures.

For sure man. I hope we can do a big photoshoot similar to what we did last year on the winona trip.

I have met most of these guys personally (cannot speak for nismo) and MOST of them wouldnt talk down on anyone (and you will learn that it is a fun club)

Chin up. Its your car. Atleast your wing is functional on a REAR wheel drive car.

Im goin to bed. Night Z owners.
