I saw that and was planning on going, would be a good trip for us. I was also thinking about heading to ATCO sometime before winter comes. That could be a good friday night trip for us

Sigh. Smacked into the bumper of a big-*** truck this weekend. Truck: 1, 350Z: 0. Tore up my fender pretty good. This along with someone egging the car and destroying the paint on the door, and someone putting dents in the other door, is apparently $2,100 worth of damage! 
Anyone know a good, honest, autobody place?

. They had a nice new '06 LMS roadster at the dealer, but my keys wouldn't fit.

That's where I go for all my work. Its first rate and its an extremely well run shop. Right down 295 to Woodbury. Lifetime warranty on all work they do with OE replacement parts.

Agreed! Any cruise is a good idea.
Hey, I have a story! PIcked up a GT3 in North Carolina and we cruised for almost two hours (Flew) at upwards of 130MPH. What a f_U_C_K_I_N_G blast that was. Drove for 13 straight on Saturday and got home at 2:30 in the morning. Anybody miss me? FU then.

BTW, who was that is doing the Mrev2/spacer mod with me on Sunday? I just spoke with Motordyne and they are shipping overnight to me on Wednesday. Just curious if you got a better deal elsewhere. I paid 446 for the mrev and I don't remember what the Iso Thermal 5/16 spacer was.
What's this about a heating line to the throttle body? You need to turn a valve if it gets too cold to heat up the throttle body he says.

The valve allows you to bypass coolant through the throttle body. You can turn it on in the winter, off in the summer.

At least it'll run strong, even if it looks awful ...

Doesn't look like I'll be able to make the meet this weekend.
My father is coming up from Florida on Monday, so I've got to get the house ready.
Sounds like I'm going to miss a good one.

Our club "Team Zag" is interested in bringing someone in for a weekend to tune some of our vehicles. Is this something that you would be interested in?
Sure I would be happy to tune the vehicles. For travel tunes, I will need at least 3-4 weeks leadtime, if you can do that. I will work around your schedules as best as possible.
For an NA car, the FCON is probably overkill, honestly. It will definately work perfect, but a UTEC is more than sufficient.
This is a PM that I sent Shariff from Forged regarding him coming up and doing a day of tuning.
Who would be interested?

I'd be interested in a tune, depending on costs.. also, what kind of tuning? Is he going to flash ecu or will we need to have some sort of aftermarket piggyback?
On a sidenote, I can definitely make it this sunday.. girlfriend is going to be in NYC so i'm golden. I have also done the motordyne 5/16th spacer on my car so I should be able to help with your install of that. How many people plan on showing up this sunday anyway?
One more thing.. I dont remember if this has been discussed before, but I have a dent I need fixed and was thinking of going through a PDR guy. I dont know if anybody else would be interested in that or if anybody has any recommendations. I know a guy is coming to that ECZA meet I might just use his services. Is there any interests in cruising to that? I think its in Concordsville PA
