At least you know the problem now I had to replace my TB about 5k miles ago just bought a used one on here.

Quick rant...

So I bought an iPhone from eBay with the description that it is working "beautifully." I am all excited because I have missed my iPhone but only one problem I get no service what so ever! I go through all the steps that "fix" it according to the seller and it's a no go. I tell him I know it's not my service provider because a friend has t-mobile and when our phones are next to each other his has full service and mine has none. He doesn't believe me and denies everything even though I have a picture of it. Now I filled a claim on paypal and he is claiming he checks all his phones which is bullsh!t!! I swear if paypal goes his way I'm going to flip... I HATE SCUMS and SCAMMERS like this guy!!!

End of rant...

What's up guys?

I'm not in ATL but B'ham.. pretty close. We don't have our own thread =( (no surprise LOL).

Anyways I have been in the market for a new car for a while and had it narrowed down to an S2000 or 350Z. I was almost set on the S2000 but then I drove this Z and fell in love. I feel it will be a much better overall daily driver as well.



Hopefully I can get some real pics / real upload soon.

So far I absolutely love it. There are a few small things I need to work out, maybe some warranty work who knows... just because I'm so picky that is. But the car is definitely a blast to drive and I love the looks of course. The future mod list is already long sigh but nothing will be done to the car forever probably because I am super broke now. It's ok though, every time I blip the throttle it puts a smile on my face.

This thing definitely feels faster than my old car which was a 2002 VW GTI 337 edition with basic mods. Getting onto the interstate last night I actually felt afraid to floor it. Then again this cold weather and no LSD are probably attributing factors to my traction issues.

Oh and in case anyone wonders.. so far it has Nismo LMGT4's, Eibach Pro-Kit springs, and TurboXS cat-back exhaust. Oh yeah and tomorrow I'll put my S2000 stubby antenna on. 8-)

Thomas that's good to hear it was no big deal! I need a tune too but I would rather fix other stuff on my car.

I have been thinking about switching up to either a full Nismo V2 bodykit or the combination of Amuse front, Do-Luck sides and Chargespeed rear. I can't decide I am just tired of my veilside and want to change things up.

After thinking about your CF bumper I am starting to think about doing a CF lip kit so I don't have to worry about paint hmm choices.

Yeah I will bro. Doesn't look like it's happening before summer/fall time now I think, unless the tax return is great. Slowly saving and paying off other stuff at the moment.
