[QUOTE=SmoothZ;7224537]lol, Greg. We've been looking for one to replace our old one that broke last year. Local prices are stupid expensive, so I just happen to find that one. I like numbers and control, so I got it.
Napa on hwy 13 and what? I need to go! The Z will be getting an oil change this week. I think my Z will be coming out sooner than Friday

Ah, I know where that is. Cool. Thanks, Greg.
As for the tuning question, I meant it as a general question for NA cars. I have read that some people take their cars in to be put on the dyno, and then they state that it's getting tuned.
How does that work if you're on the dyno and you're NA?

Screw that. I'm ready to drive the car NOW! Piggyback or aftermarket ECU sounds like a better option. I thought about buying the Cipher-Osiris setup a while ago, but things changed. I think that kit is my best option for staying NA.

So I never got center caps and wanted to send them off to the powdercaoter with my wheels. I had planned on getting the Z emblems from performance nissan, but the wheels are going to St Cloud tomorrow. Anyone (Dave) have and want to sell me their regular "Nissan" center caps? I'd need to pick them up tonight.

Holy *****! I just called Walser Nissan in Bville to see if they had some (they only had 3) but it didn't matter because they want $79 and change per center cap, lol. I htink I'm going to order the Z ones and either paint them black when I get them, or send them up to St Cloud by themselves to get powdercoated.

That's awesome! I've always thought it was cool to have around 350hp for our Z's.

Saw a silver GT-R this evening in downtown Mpls. Then on the way home, I saw a DB Z with black wheels, polished lip, and nose cover going north on Cedar.
