I'll probably give it another go this year. I think Derek did better than I did if I remember correctly.
LOL - You eating french fries to sober up on the Sunday after the Jawbreaker Road Rally. In your defense, you were drinking like a fish in a river of Jagermeister.

Oh I did horrible last year too... It was literally like a month after getting over the swine flu (Actually was the swine flu) and I was ****ing with Chad and the rest of the guys from the bottom of the hill cabin (I'm on a boat guys) cuz they were drinking from the same cups my pong ball was falling in.

So beware of the pong ball in the cups. Perhaps we should invoke a rule of using water in the cups but you have to drink a cup of beer instead. Less germs and less wasted cups.

Don't forget to register on www.zdayz.com !
There are only 7 Michigan registrations done so far. You don't have to pay during the registration process. A paypal invoice will be emailed to you. You are supposed to pay in 10 days but I think Brian is OK if you pay by the end of April.
He needs a good head count so he can order t-shirts and arrange for dinners & etc.

I did the free dyno pulls, the drive in movie, drop top cruise, dam photo etc... . I wanted to do thecar show, poker run and exhaust competitions but got sick on Saturday.
The cost is pretty minimal for the registration and it keeps the event running every year. The excess proceeds go to a local charity so I get to feel good about helping the needy.

It depends what you call regestering. I did do the dinners and poker run, I just didn't do the show. I guess I didnt really look if that was included in the price. Dont get me wrong im more than willing to pay something to keep the event going... I love going and looking at the cars in the show, it's just pointless entering mine unless they have an average award lol....

If your gonna be there at ZdayZ and get the discount to stay at the cabins. You should register for ZdayZ... I don't even own a Z and I register for the event... They put a TON of work into running this for us every year and it gets better and better every event.
ZdayZ is something I look forward to every year.

I am really hoping that I can get off of work to make it to ZdayZ. Sounds like it will be a blast!
Dil - If you get an elcosed trailer, let me know. If there is room I may see if we can squeeze my bike in there too. Also if you need a camera, I have an incar camera mount and 2 GoPro HDs.

ZdayZ is coming fast. 2.5 months will fly by like nothing!
So post up the projects you want to get done in time for ZdayZ! We may need a couple Install Parties to cover it all.
My Project List:
(Work to be done by shop)
Roll rear fenders
Paint Nismo V2 bumper
Body color paint the door handles
Clear bra the front
4 wheel alignment (correct rear toe)
Osiris Tuning (Rob, when are you heading down??)
Replace rear tires
(Work done by me)
Brakes: Stainless lines, Motul fluid, Hawk Pads and drilled / slotted rotors. (Parts on the way)
Replace radius arms and toe bolts in rear (already have parts)
Replace rear bumper with Tourenn rear bumper (Already painted redline and on its way)
Headers (long tube): If I can find a reasonable set
Tommy Kiara Shift ****: Oh yeah! (Part on the way)
Install longer wheel studs and spacers (after rolling) Already have parts.
Grease sway bars (They are squeaking like a chuck wagon!)
Oil cooler (Need to order parts)
Replace Ipod cable with one that is 3GS iPhone compatible with headunit.
Possibly replace head unit.
GoPro HD Motorsports kit (Need to order it)
Considering doing something with my scratched up center console.
There's a lot to do but I'm not doing chit till my wrist is out of a cast. (Early April)
Post up your mod plans so we can prepare the next few install parties..

Lol is it sad that I know where half the parts that are "on the way" for came from? Damn I'm on this place way too much.
Only thing I got are the rotors, pads, and tune (goin down 4/10)
Btw how hard is it to put in ss lines? Especially if I'm already flushing evrything after the brake install?
Lemme know when u need help, as I'll need help with my brakes too!

If you need a hand with the electronic stuff that's way more up my alley than the mechanical... I have wired too damn many head units up.
Anyway here's what I want to get done:
Suspension:
Anyway here's what I want to get done:
Suspension:
Get sway bars put on... rear needs to go back on ASAP. I think I may have someone handle that for me because jack stands are a pain in the ***.
Brakes: CarbotecXP10/XP8 pads (seems to be recommended for any tracking by the guys on the other forum)
Motul RB600 fluid
SS Brake lines (if I do the fluid... I fear bleeding the brakes)
Cosmetic: Motul RB600 fluid
SS Brake lines (if I do the fluid... I fear bleeding the brakes)
Clear bra
Window tinting
Fix fascia
Electronics:Window tinting
Fix fascia
OBD-II logger
spare tire sub
speaker replacement
I would like to get all of it done before I get an inspection for the SEMPCA track day May 13th. Maybe I'll look into having one of the shops who do inspections do the sways.

Lee: I'll take care of your sways and other items if you do my headunit. I'm TERRIBLE with electronics.
Rob: I'll get a hold of Injected Performance and see if I can book the same day. We can ride down together. (Just in case something goes wrong.)
I haven't bled brakes in years. I used to use a rubber hose and a mason jar of fluid. Maybe we can beg Deepu to let us use his power bleeder. It's the best way. As far as replacing the lines, the time to do it is when you have to bleed / change fluid. Swapping 'em out is easy. Just remember to have a good brake line wrench. (Which I have)
