that's something me and Tom (Enthuziast) have been wanting for...unfortunately, phx Z owners appear not too active of having gtgs....

 

This needs to be remmedied fo sho

 

Go to www.desertZassociation.com for info on meets. rides and shows. We have approx 20 350z members along with 80 other Z owners. The club is very active with 2 or 3 events or meets held each month.

Thanks for the info...Checked out the website, it seems to me that those people arent exactly represenative of who most of us owners are They look like some nice people, but is there anyone that belongs to that club that is under 45?

 

I'm 26... and down in Tucson. Always up for a gtg... grab a beer, shoot the ****, or even work on the cars... I am usually only on http://www.**********.com but you can also get at me on AIM, same s/n (dataspike).

let's set a date and meet up. Make a new thread with a title, date and then list the location and such. If enough people reply saying they can't make it, change the date. All the BMW/Euro guys used to meet up at the In and Out on Ray @ I-10 on Thursday nights, that sounds like a good place.

 

I'd rather do it on a weekend day, possibly do a group install or something at my place. I'm in Scottsdale and have 4 car garage and tools.

Also, have a bar and pool table...

 

That's a rather negative reply. But to answer your question yes there are quite a few members who are under 45. One additional benefit of being a member is the discount you get at a number of dealerships thruought the valley. Some are as highas 25%off both parts and service.

He has a point though. I don't want to make any opinions about the DZA as I'm not a member and haven't been to any of their meets. I was big into Porsches a few years back and the local PCA club was "older" guys who liked romantic cruises through Sedona, charity ball events, dinners, organized meetings etc. I prefer to stand around and shoot the $hit with people my age, talk about chicks and so on. Not saying DZA fits my requirements or not, just saying I see where he's coming from.

 

Sounds like you just need help installing something!

 

Ok now AZ350Z, we want to have a meet at your place
I really like the group install idea, In n Out sounds good also as they have a big parking lot outside Lowe's

 

I don't know what you guys need, but I want to get a set of sway bars. Any opinions about which to buy?

Also want to get a Seibon hood, but that's alot of dough before x-mas though.

Whaddaya think?

 

I have the Hotchkis sways and am very happy with the results. The Stillen sways are also popular and the price has come way down lately so they are more competitive now. 350EVO bars are excellent but cost a little more. The Hotchkis sways don't have collars on them to keep them in place but I haven't had any problems with them moving around. There are some good threads over in the wheel, tire, brake, suspension forum about sways. IMO its one of the best mods you can do, especially for a heavy pig like my G35. Install wasn't too hard, but some of those bolts are a b1tch to break loose.

 

Just to clarify my message was not meant offend. But I too am more about just hanging out, drinking is good, talking about and meeting chicks. Older people honestly just don't fit in with that. Although I am sure they are good people.

I like the bar/pool house idea and the group install. I have a warehouse in Phoenix that can easily fit up to 5 or 6 z's to work on. Though not a lot of tools. Should I start a thread for a local meet? Or will someone else do this ? Let me know I have the time. Weekends I aggree are very good, for the majority.

Thanks,

Chris

BTW does everyone drink Carona?
if not give me some ideas of what everyone drinks, I like to accomidate
