I was trying to talk my wife into getting a sweet turbo emblem to represent... She told me to get my head out of my ***...

She sais that a lot

 

Just put one on there and don't tell her.

Up in Rochester this weekend hanging out with the girlfriend. Went to her school's car club and won Best Stance. Best part is I was only at the show for about a total of 30 minutes. The Z was quite the attention grabber today

 

Nice out of state victory.

A4 didn't work out. Decided to wait until I receive a job offer to purchase a second car. Hopefully only a month or two

 

Sucks, thats too much like another fun car, you need to get something super lame for a daily driver like a rav-4 or CRV... Low maintenance awd, eco friendly, made in Japan.

 

What a turn out, no chicks?

 

My chick was there.

But not many, my car is generally a dude magnet.

And all of the other cars are behind me taking the picture. I just rolled in so I went to the back so I didn't drive through a big crowd. Don't need any mustang shenanigans going on

Was the college campus full of hotties? I drove by Umass the other day at work... Good god is the scenery nice.

 

It was RIT, which is mostly an engineering school so it was mostly a bunch of socially awkward guys.

But my trip to RIT is back is over. Whoever doesn't think a Vortech z is reliable is crazy. Ive done 700 miles in the last 2 days with absolutely no hiccups.

And the trip home was STUNNING! I don't condone phone use while driving but I had to capture a couple pictures along the way. And keep in mind it was sunny and 72 degrees the entire ride home. So enjoy some scenery.

 

What route did you take?

 

Most of the trip is taking PA 901 north basically all the way up to new york, then hop over Rt 15 and I-390 for the rest of the trip

EDIT: Heres the exact route if you're interested

 

Super fun times over here

 

Are you trying to get the gas tank down?

We also had fun times yesterday. Stayed at the garage with my brother until 4AM. We got the car started and we are putting on coil overs.

And I swapped out my blow off valve for a different one. Liking the new one a lot.

 

No just swapping out the subframe bushings... I was tempted to remove that metal piece between the gas tank and subframe but I'll keep it on their I guess...

Cleaning up and putting back together today.

 

I wrecked my G yesterday. Does anybody have a Z roller laying around?

 

I hope all is good. Sorry to hear about the car.

Sadly I do not have a project roller laying around, nor do I know anybody with one.

 

Bummer man, here is one being parted on craigslist, probably not that close though.

Also a few Gs on craigslist that are taken apart...

Some dude has a supercharged Z taken apart he wants like 8grand for it though...

 

Thank you. It was more embarrassing than anything, very low speed mistake driving to school on cold summer tires.

I'd be looking for an older body style ready to accept my DE engine, so 2003-2005 really. Stuff like the link you sent, I bet he wants a lot for it the way he is talking though. I'm going to ask for a price without the drivetrain or seats. Realistically I would want like 2 grand for my car as a roller in good shape no accidents. I would expect the same for a Z hopefully.

I'll have to find those G's. Any coupes? I'm looking for a better drag car. A Z fits large tires much better than a G, something to consider.

Thanks for the help

 

I believe Matt might be selling his G35 as a roller (Craig can you confirm?) if he can get rid of the motor.

But yeah, a Z fits tires significantly easier than Gs from what I have seen

 

Yea I do remember Matt listing his car as a project/roller. Not sure if he made progress on that but it could be worth a shot.

 

Dang, that stinks, sorry to hear that. Ever thought about putting your engine in something else? 240sx is pretty lightweight.
