Anyone interested in a set of 07 5 spoke rims w/ tires? Only 300 miles on them. They are in excellent condition. I took them off after I bought my Z, literally a few days and replaced them with aftermarket wheels/tires. Asking for $1500 obo for 4 rims and 4 tires (barely used). I'm located in Apopka.

update the car is doing much better and will be finally tuned in the morning. The problem was the fuel basket. I guess when I was installing the fuel pump i damaged the basket some how and that was the reason for the 80psi fuel pressure. I should have it back by noon tomorrow. Fingers crossed!

Hey everyone, I just moved to Orlando from Ohio one month ago. I have owned my 350Z for over a year now, and attended Z days 2007 along with several events back when I lived in Ohio. I am going to try and make it out tomorrow night for the meet at Hooters on Lake Underhill.

Looking forward to meeting everyone. :-)

Can anyone recommend a good shop to work on my hood. I just noticed my 07 with 1200 miles on it has significant water spots etched in. I have tried all the trick and no go. So I need a talented person with a PC who might be able to work some magic. thanks

mad mods can help, that would be a quick job. his shop is directly behind jeremy's.

Here is my dyno sheet, way off of what i wanted but its a start. I ordered a manual boost controler to get up to 10lbs. Hopefully that will put me closer to the mark. I am getting it re tuned next week.

On 8lbs boost



Didn't go to the track, it rained.

Exclamation You Got To Read This!!!!!!!!!!

So get this,

Last night after a night out, we decide to go and eat at Denny's over on colonial and alafaya. We were enjoying out dinner, almost done when we noticed some confusion behind us. We were sitting next to the cash register. There was a group of kids behind us that were trying to pay for their food so they could leave. It was homecoming for them. They were all dressed up looking good. These kids weren't being loud, they were being polite and cooperative. In the restaurant with the management.

The situation that took place was, they were in a large group and a few of the kids in that group decided to skip out on their bill. The kids that did decide to pay their bill were being harassed for the others that left. They were being told that they needed to pay for the food that hadn't been paid for. The kids said that they didn't have the money to pay for the other plates. Management called over the police and started harassing them telling them that they were going to arrest them for trespassing, and not paying for food, what ever charge that would be. The officer started grilling all of them, taking down their names and info. FOR WHAT they didn't do anything. They were simply trying to pay their bills.

Here is the kicker. These kids were BLACK. The management wasn't white but none the less was being racist towards the kids. It was so obvious.

I was really getting agitated at what the management was saying and doing to these kids. I turned around because the manager was standing behind me. I said to him what he was doing to these kids was wrong. He told me that he didn't care and that he didn't want my business anymore either and told me that I had to leave. The officer came over and told me that I had to leave as well, I said fine, I don't want to continue to patronage a restaurant that was being RACIST towards some black kids. I was so pissed off, I took my money and threw it down on the counter.

Here is the kicker, the money was in a bundle and came apart as I threw it. Two of the bills flew into the manager who was standing next to the counter and the officer said THATS IT, GRABBED ME AND SAID THAT I WAS GOING TO BE ARRESTED FOR ASSAULT AND BATTERY.

I said what, you got to be kidding me. For what, she said hitting him with money. I laughed and said are you serious?! She grabbed my arm and said DON'T RESIST, I said VERY LOUD FOR ALL TO HEAR, I am not resisting ****! She had me sit down and she went outside to get something from her truck. When she came back in she went to the manager and kept asking him, (more like trying to coerce him) to press charges for assault and battery, I told him do it! I am going to call corporate and let them know that they have a racist manager working there.

She told me to be quiet and to sit back down. When she came over to me she asked me how much I had to drink. That she was going to arrest me for public intoxication. Funny part is by this time it had been quite a while since I had something to drink. I was the driver, so I was completely sober. I said yeah right, blow me then, I guarantee that I blow under legal. Way under legal. She got pissed because I said BLOW ME! I laughed at her. I said are you serious, I was talking about the breathalyser.

She took my ID, I almost gave her my military ID and she said she wanted my state ID. Then she started asking me who my boss was, my command and how they would want to know how I was asking. She said that she was going to give them a call. Stupid me told her that I went to UCF, she said that she was going to report me to the school for something about probation and getting me kicked out of school. I said yeah right, what ever! She kept asking me for my work phone number and their names. I said I am exercising my rights and I don't have to tell her anything. She said she would find out and I said GOOD LUCK!

She was so pissed of, told me to shut the **** up and that she was in charge of me and that I was disgusting for telling her to blow me. I laughed at her and said your not in charge of me. Your not my commander my boss. She said right now I am in charge, I said you may be in charge but your damn sure not my boss. Everyone that was around me was pissed off, that I was being charged with trespassing because I was standing up for some kids.

I signed a trespass warrant and was told to leave.

Can you believe that crap. I probably could of handled the situation with a little more tact. It was hard to stomach what I witnessed. Maybe I could of been more respectful to her. I really wasn't that bad. I may of almost went to jail, but I feel damn proud that I stood up for what was right! I am going to call corporate and let them know what happened.

First I want to apologize for not making it to the meet last night. Something came up at the last minute and I didn't even have a chance to make a ph call.


Stephen: for what you did. I would probably have done the same thing with the difference that my puertorican @ss would be sitting in jail right now . I believe you can take legal action against Denny's and this is not the 1st time I hear about this kind of problem with them. There comes your '07 TT.

OMG Stephen, glad you're okay! Can't believe what happened!! So proud of you for doing what you did. I would file some complaint against Dennys AND OPD, wish you coulda gotten her badge number. "Blow me" to a female cop prob wasn't the best choice of words, but by that point she was treating you like ****, she deserved whatever misunderstanding. Cops nowadays are on power trips and disrespect people all the time, I wish descrimination/ mistreatment by cops could easily be prosecuted, they do it all the time.

Yeah, I knew the second I said Blow Me, it came out wrong and I knew she would use it in the wrong context. I meant to say let me blow and we will see if I am drunk. Public intoxication, HAH! She was grasping for straws and was trying to get me to cross the line. That is why she couldn't arrest me. The only thing she had on me was some that my damn money hit the managers belly because she was leaning against the counter where i threw my money to. I was walking out as I threw it anyway, I was leaving.

THEY ESCALATED THE ISSUE! ACTUALLY THE FEMALE COP DID. The manager just wanted me to leave because he didn't want me to keep calling him a racist, Everyone in my group was saying that what they were doing was racial in motivation. They crossed an ethical boundary they could of stayed well clear of. They had a right to be upset but not the right to hassle the kids. The way they did. Their demeanor was rude, nasty and unacceptable.

I respected her badge because she was doing her job. HOWEVER she was mistreating it and me in the process.

I love cops, respect what they do. I work in the military with alot of them. On the other side of the coin, I do believe that alot of them also abuse their authority. I am not going to say POWER because they have power over only themselves. Authority is a better word. Alot of them like to think they have power.

I guess it's always easy to say what we ought to do after it's all over, but one of the best things I've seen done is video taping stuff like this when crap starts to break out. Lots of cell phones have video capture and if you just start asking questions while taping, you have PROOF of outrageous behavior. One quick YouTube post and people are looking at lawsuits and unemployment.
