Next Saturday is C&C, then probably a bonfire at my house that evening.
North Star Auto Performance is having their meet up in Maple Grove on Friday night. I went there just a couple of weeks ago after I got the new exhaust on.

LOL, the handles I had pulled adhesive off yrs ago bc it was bubbling, heaven forbid they wouldve been metal!?
The paint will begin to chip and look like $hit after a few yrs from skin oils etc...for reference I had mine painted to match the actual HANDLE color that was original..
and Aaron all about the lulz....angry Godfather

And, your assumptions like most assumptions ppl make are wrong...18x10 275/40 fit just immaculate and looked damn well doing it

I'm chatting with the guy who lives in AV and drives a mint 260Z. He's coming with us on Saturday morning.
I need to borrow your orbital, too. I guess I'm going to have to buy a claybar, too. Unless you think I can skip that part and just wash the Z before polishing and waxing.

My allergies have been going crazy after an incident at work (fawking HS kids) so Ive been hitting the rack early all week lol. LMK when ya need the buffer and I'll bring it over for ya, Id clay before doing anything btw, only takes a little while longer when washing the car, otherwise you are just sealing in the contaminants. Im gonna wash and wax the Z tomorrow after work to get her all cleaned up in case I go on Sat, I'll just take the truck to work on Fri since it's gonna rain. IF I go on Sat Im gonna request we hit up IHOP after for some food, I need some type of reward for getting up so GD early on a day off lol.
Think Im gonna turn in for the night.

People still use clay bars? Jesus haha. I work in a detail department, and we all use clay mitts to decontaminate our cars. I'm new to the forum btw. I bought a babied 03 350z touring with 49,000 miles last summer, and only use it in the summer. I've added a Magnaflow Cat Back exhaust so far, and plan on buying a 5/16" Motordyne Plenum Spacer, JWT PopCharger, Berk Test Pipes, and OSIRIS Tuner. Anyways I was wondering if you guys had any tune work done anywhere. Would RS Motors or Full Blown be viable options? Thanks in advance for your input guys
Sup new guy, yes many ppl still use clay bars and being I have detailed for over 15 yrs they offer a viable solution to numerous areas NTM benefits over the gloves of which I own both for different applications. Now the orbital buffer vs rotary may be questinable, but I own both for same reasons.
Your build list looks pretty stellar so far, get em in and enjoy the ride. rRS probably a better bet, but why do you need a tuning shop for the minimal bolt ons and osiris youre buying?

Some of my buddies have Access Ports for their Subaru's and Mazda's, but I've never attempted tuning before, and to me it looks a lot more complicated then sharing and using tunes through an Access Port. Do you know by experience how difficult using the UpRev software is? Or do you know of any guides that could help me with those specific bolt-ons? In the meantime I'll continue to look online and read forums, but so far not so good
The D.I.Y. sections has some great guides with plenty of pics for those mods. I was (and still am) a complete noob about touching anything on a car and had no problem with those bolt ons. As for the guides for the tunes, I'm not sure if there is a lot on here for the specific elements of it. I've skimmed the "Tuning" section, but I don't think what you're exactly looking for is on this site specifically
Oh wow, I phrased my last question horribly haha. I'm not worried about installing the bolt on parts, (I've seen a few videos on YouTube and such), I was just concerned about finding a good tune using UpRev for those mods after the install. Thank you guys for your quick responses and input
