Ok, where did everybody go? Has anyone done any mods within the last 6 months?

 

Hey Gary, what's up? The only mod I've done is added a Cherokee to my garage. Driving in the snow sucked this past year!

I saw a Lemans 350Z at Jalapenos on New Circle Rd today. It 'looked' stock and even had 17" rims, however, it whistled. I really should've chatted with the owner, but we were leaving. Upon closer inspection, I saw some extra guages and an intercooler. Any info on this car? I wish mine whistled!

 

Hmmm . . . it sounds like a sleeper to me. Now that I think about it, I did hear of a Lemans having a turbo. In any case, I just purchased my Greddy TT kit with intercooler, tial blow off valve, and greddy profec e01. Should be fun!

A friend of mine laughed earlier today when I called it a sleeper. He told me that my car was anything but a sleeper. I think he missed the point.

I'd like to know how your turbo install goes. I may have to wait until I've paid mine off, but I've been considering FI. Not sure about turbo or supercharging, though. Why'd you pick turbo?

 

There's just so much more upgrading you can do with a turbo system, but the one negative that I had to overcome was the excessive amount of parts and the costs associated with them! Then again, just hearing the blow off valve go off as I scream down the road really makes it all worth while. My guess is that it should be done by next weekend . . . give or take a few days.

You gonna take me for a test drive? I might just have a hear attack due to envy.

 

I'm having a heart attack due to price It's amazing, you need at least another grand (minimal) to do a TT right. When its all said and done, I'm sure I will have dropped another 2500 after turbo w/intercooler for a grand total of $8200 in parts!

Anyone in KY know of a good shop that does body kit installs?

How about leather seat cover installs?

Thanks.

 

What part of KY are you in?

 

I know when I had to have the leather seat cover in my eclipse replaced, the dealer in Lex had a company from Louisville come here to do it. If I'm not mistaken, this company also did quite a bit of window tinting for the dealer. I would just ask them who they go through in the service department for leather warranty.

 

 

sorry about that i will be in KY this weekend what is a good spot to hang out at Lexington that is

 

There's stuff to do in Lex? *LOL*

What do you like to do? How old are ya?

If anything goes on in Lex, it involves beer

 

I'm next to Fort Knox, go to Louisville 5 days a week.
My car is becoming a beater from daily driving on Dixie Dieway.

 

Huh, I'm from Radcliff and my P's still live there. Small world. We had 4 350s meet up last night here in Lex. Perhaps we should get everyone in the area to meet up before winter.....

 

That would be cool. The last time I attended a 'meet', you were the only other 350z!

BTW: I'm originally from Louisville. I used to drive on Dixie Dieway every day.

 

I went to Fort Knox the other afternoon about 5 pm and saw a white Z on a side road in Radcliff, then a silver Z on Wilson Road on Fort Knox, then a blue Z passing the main PX.
Three Z's in thirty minutes.
I also have seen a black roadster on post and at Barnes and Nobles.

 

Damn . . . but that really doesn't surprise me. Most soldiers put down quite a bit of money for a vehicle since they don't pay for housing (or have a housing allowance)...... Look at some of the mobile home parks in Radcliff: BMW in the drive

 

If anyone is free on Thursday (any Thursday for that matter), a few local Zs and other imports meet at Parkette around 9ish. Last Thursday there were about 20-25 vehicles . . .

Of course, if it rains, I'm out No reason to get the Z dirty
