Hey man, like I said I'll be around next week, but working late. If you want to meet up some night after 9PM-ish let me know in this post or PM. Maybe we can round up a couple others as well. I'll throw my camera/tripod in the car and we could get some night pics of the Zs possibly.

 

Holy hell ajames, drive much??? I guess that seems like a lot to me cause i've really only been taking the Z out of the garage about once week and take it around town. If i were to drive it to north jersey tonight and then take it to state college in the morning, i'm sure it'd would be so dirty no one would wanna see it anyway. Gotta love black cars lol...

 

I have 76,000 miles on my 03 and it's still in darn nice condition and running well < knock on wood >.

 

wow, i hit 40k and backed off driving it. I don't want a ton of miles on it when i turbo it eventually. Is that weird??? lol

 

Not weird at all I guess, but I wouldn't "lay off driving it" in planning to turbo it with low miles. Doesn't matter when you turbo the car, at some point you are going to need a rebuild of the engine. It might make it 20-30k making that much power, but most blocks I have seen don't last that long...

I'm taking quite the opposite approach. Drive it like hell now while its N/A until it blows up from normal wear and then rebuild/forced induction. At this rate, next year at this time I'll be around 100k. Not sure how long the Zs will last, but if driven 'spirited' I'm guessing 100-150k range somewhere...

Hopefully closer to the 100k b/c I can't wait til 150k to rebuild and supercharge it. If I make 120k and its still running strong N/A, I'm just going to SC and blow it up on purpose. Haha...

 

man i need my car back, this f'in crv is killin me... we def need to meet up in SC some time.. maybe meet and tailgate together for a game?

 

Tailgate before a game would be sweet. I'm not an alum, so I have no easy way to tickets however. I get them from the partner in my firm a few times a year usually, but if any of y'all can score them easily, let me know...

Tough this year now that y'all are 'good' again.

 

I'm down for a meet. I have classes only on Tuesday and Thursday, lol. nurseryboy is also up at state college, haven't seen him post.

 

PSU WHOOT!!! im down for a g2g...

 

so when you guys meetin up i'll be up there the 9th and 10th???

 

I can't make 9th and 10th... Some weekend after that though...

 

The mileage is a pita during the winter (Tahoe ain't cheap to run), but I really like the commute... gives me a chance to unwind.

If it looks like we will have a decent crowd (us + the others that Clayton mentioned) we could always roll in to Quaker Steak... you can apparently drink beer, etc in their parking lot if so desired.

Silkk- I think I may have waved at you out by Barnes and Noble a couple of months ago...

 

well.. with my friends we normally get together at his house.. have a fire.. beer.. whatever.. last one we had was in july or june i think, and we had a good 15 cars.. but that was just local johnstown ppl, if other ppl wanna come to the next one.. thats cool, theres ample parking space

 

just let me know when were all meetin up and i'm there

 

ajames - definitely a possibility! the car probably looked different then, but its cool.

all - we need to pick a date and do this thing. maybe some saturday there is an away game, so its not SO packed (not that its not with normal student body) as a weekend with a game.

unless of course tailgate is the plan. I will probably be at the Illinois and NW games...

 

ill be up for the night of the 16th and 17th for a car show in Tyrone (delgrosso's park) on sunday. next week i should be around a lot of the week.... if you get bored gimme a holler 845-674-6632

oh yeah, every sundays theres a meet in altoona behind target for older cars if you get bored.


jesse

 

D15na - Are you from the Altoona area, or get your car worked on there? I was in Altoona working a month or so back and I ran into a dude with a white modded jetta.

He said he knew a guy in a LS with TT and I think he tried to call you or something... I'm pretty sure you are the dude.

Hope to meet up with you sometime in PSU.

 

i am THAT guy.. lol.. corey was his name, im from tyrone, but right now i live in newburgh, ny, and in a month im moving to south jersey/ philly area... and yeah for right now i get my work done at Streetshow Motorsports.. the ones with the GTR-34, H2 Truck on 26 floaters, chamelion supra, and HKS evo8. but its too far to drive so in the future all engine stuff will bedone at MRC.

 

Just got back from UP tonight. Ended up taking the Jeep afterall. I kept my eyes open just in i spotted any of you. No such luck though. Lemme tell ya though, those monkey boys creep up on ya!

 

LOL, yeah... how bout the crowbar shutting down?
