Little Rock and surrounding areas
Oh also I'm thinking about selling my Nintendo Wii. I thought I remembered someone saying they wanted one here a while back and just thought I'd post it in case someone was interested.

Man if I could do that all the time, I would. I had to bleed my brakes twice that day. My first lap I smoked my brakes...had to bleed them...then took it easy untill my last run group. At the end of that run group I was drving in the pits and I go to press my brakes and the pedal goes all the way to the floor...lol. So I bled the brakes again and got my pedal back. There were 2 places were I would reach 100-105mph...and one went into a ~40mph turn (see video)
But autox is sooooooooo much easier on your car. I would hate to road race my daily driver all the time....Plus I was driving like a pansy. I could have dropped my lap times so much just by braking later. But I wanted to make sure I got slowed down I was in the novice group and no one passed me all day. I would start in the back and pass everyone and then I had the track to myself...it was awesome...

No...My brakes were holding me back more then anything. Brake fade > Me
I think if I would have just changed my fluid out it would have been a lot better...and I would have probabley turned them...
There was a evo there (red brembos) that turned his brembos black

got me.. but I've definitely read of quite a few people talking about it w/brembos... really any fixed caliper. I think our hubs just flex alot. https://my350z.com/forum/autocross-r...quipped-z.html
that starts with talking about seeping, but thats just one thread talking about knockback.
Not that I track, but reading about those issues is one of the reasons I opted for 06 brakes over spending alittle more for brembos/g37 kit or a bbk.
I'm getting tired of cleaning my wheels. Rays anodized lips are not for daily driving. I think thats why all the socal guys have volks, they dont have rain there :/ I was gonna let my tires wear down more, but I think I'm getting the urge to change up.. Probably better to try to sell or trade before the tires are done..
I've also been sitting on this sweet Orange TPMS since I had the Advans. I mean, I *need* to know the PSI and Temp of my tires at all times And of course, knowing if youre alignment is off if temps are not the same. Anyway, I didnt want to drop the money on 2 piece wheel adaptors for TPMS. But I think I got the itch for ligher 1pc wheels, and then I can finally use the Orange transmitters.

Adam, I know this isnt the brand you mentioned (I cant remember the brand you wanted), but I got an email from Amazon with some polishers on sale, for example

that seems pricey, but I guess for the levels of detailing you do and what people pay you for it, it's not that bad.
Selling Z
Sup guys? I gotta sell the Z
!! Gotta baby due in June and as you all know....can't put a car seat in Z.... Anyone who's interested or know someone that might be, contact Rod at rbostic@pcso.org

if you really love your Z, you should consider a G sedan (the coupe has seat harness anchors on the rear seat too ). Alot of the same stuff you like about the Z is going to be in the G as well. I'm not sure you would like what you hear, but maybe Ellis Infiniti would give you some decent numbers. They gave me nearly private sale value on my maxima trade in, but that was years ago... But they've always been a bit more fair than other dealers around here.
If you do, ask for Randy (Johnson I believe). He's owns the sweet red Z32 there. Anyway, they arent high pressure like Nissan lots... at all. But they are still a car lot and private sale will always fetch more.
