I'll drive mine until the first snow fall, then its down for the winter. Winter projects will be open and paint headlights, pull headliner and other parts for suede headliner, pillars/posts and wrap some dash/door parts in 3m Di-noc. Also need to keep saving for new suspension and wheels/tires in the spring. If I can save enough for some paint and body that would be a bonus but doubt I can get that far, come on POWERball.

Or next best thing, tax return money. Which is usually what I spend it all on, which next spring will be my wilwood BBK.

Man sure is a little strange that Dave is not around. Lets list some jokes about homeland security lol





A man ran up to a policeman outside the local airport. "Help!" he cried. "A Swiss Army guard just stole my American FAA pocket knife!"

"You're mixed up," the cop smiled. "You must mean an American FAA guard stole your Swiss Army pocket knife."

Looking suspiciously both ways, the man whispered to the cop, "Just remember it was you who said it, not me!"





An American traveling abroad was asked about life in the U.S. after September 11 and the resulting Homeland Security measures. "How do you deal with terrorist threats?"

"Today's terrorists just won't negotiate. Basically, you have to give them what they want. You wait in line forever, let them invade your privacy as much as they like, and hope they let you go on your way instead of throwing you in jail for carrying a toothpick or something."





A woman comes to a gynecologyst for a checkup. She seems to be very embarassed and uncomfortable. "Haven't you been examined like this before?" asks the doctor.

"Every time I fly these days," she giggles, "but never by a doctor!"

LOL good ones heres:

"There was supposed to be a protest, but nobody opted out of the full-body scans, maybe because of the signs TSA posted: 'If you are embarrassed by your ***** size, you may opt out of being scanned.'" -JK llmao

btw i'm on the prow for a FB, its between AMUSE and WEBER now, having trouble finding a "good" priced WEBER V3 since its newer aka ($2k = $900 bumper, 1100 shipping (from autostyle-usa.jp). Pretty sure I've searched every spot you can imagine, since i've created a Z kit list for people to use.....but if anyone may know a place let me know; i'm about to just give it up

That's a badass front bumper. Make sure you get the rest of the kit tho. I know I need to do the same as well. But not sure if I should mix and match tho to make it more unique rather than like all the other ones out there.

Nice I'll try and see what they'll say, do you also do painting on the side? I saw some rides you were painting a while ago on the forum.

Yea the racks just kept building as I priced the whole kit fml. Your Z will def look/reach show stopper status once that rear comes in; I loved the chargespeed kit especially the rear wanted it so bad (I cheated on my Z when I saw and drooled at it in NY lol).

I've seen a lot of Z's with similar spoilers sporting longer rears (nismo v3, IngsEtype, etc.) I would suggest these 3 (the top secret looks much better in person too), but pretty sure you'll have it figured out. I just hate when you can't really tell how low a different rear is from the skirts or FB you have on:
