sorry to hear it. I can't believe they gave you a ticket for that!

Heh, "The Law" claims that since there were no witnesses and the truck didn't stop, then it's a "Phantom" vehicle. It never existed. Basically, they are calling me a liar and and accusing me of doing something careless to wreck my vehicle on a perfectly straight road, no matter the conditions.
They're such dicks.

I can't wait to have this accident behind me. Driving an old Toyota 4x4 isn't quite the same. I checked on her yesterday, but I still won't have my car for a couple weeks. Good news though, I was in court yesterday and found not guilty of careless driving.
Perhaps when I get my car back, we could have a get together at a restaurant or something.
Also, who in Dover has the Silver Z with the CF intake duct and what looks like HKS exhaust?

You might be interested in seeing it when everything is done. It feels wierd driving my Olds Acheiva around every day. I hate that car.You still meet up with the guys at Applby's on Sundays? Any more 350z's join the group?

Right now, mine's getting:
APS TT
RPS flywheel & street max clutch
Wideband
Boost Guage
Nismo LMGT4's w/ Nitto 555's
Should be done early next week.
The hard part will be not using my new power until the clutch breaks in.

White 350, spoiler and exhaust (at least)?
Hey Guys,
Not a Z owner (sorry), but ran into an obviously modded 350Z last night on Rt 40 in Bear between 72 and 896, turned onto 896 northbound. Had an obvious exhaust (at least), larger aftermarket rims/tires, and at least a spoiler, could have been a body kit, hard to tell in the dark, it was around 7:00PM or thereabouts. Oh yeah, white 350Z. Curious to know if it was anyone here, I was going to play around just for fun but then got a cellphone call I had to take so as soon as we turned onto 896 the guy took off and I could not. Nice 350Z if you are here!
EDIT: BTW I was driving a smoke gray Alty SE-R, had my winter rims/tires on at the time (damn that early December cold weather/snow faked me out!
). I'm running a CAI currently, that's it, looking into h/e/ecu/p at present (tax time is soon!).

I live in the Bear area and had my work done at carv2. James and Jay run a very clean shop. They'll be taking my G35 to the philly auto show in a couple of weeks with their white Z. If anyone wants to hang out, shoot me a pm.

EDIT: Nix that, I see them advertising on the Tuner Salon on the auto show website, guess I'll see them there along with your ride!
