Fellas, just got my bumper repaired and picked up car a few hours ago. Does anybody know where I can get the clear bra installed? I just need the very bottom re-done - not the entire bumper cover. I'm a true believer because by the time I got home from bodyshop (mayber 20 miles), I already had a rock chip. Never had one before. Thanks.

To SickG,
Thank you for those awesome gifts you gave us!
To Paredyme,
Wheel Zone in IB charged me $600 for 4 18" rims, triple-plated. By far the best price i was able to find. Tell them i sent you.

Check out mishield.com right off of Miramar Rd. I looked at the owners S4 and they did an incredible job. They're also pretty reasonable. Tint Devil on Miramar Rd was inexpensive, but I'm not familiar with the quality of their work.

I met up with the owner of KCAuto yesterday. They sell only Nissan Performance Parts. He's got a Lemans Sunset with lots of Performance Upgrades including the Greddy Twin Turbo. He also has the C-West Bodykit. His car is in the sjop right now getiing worked on. I told him about our weekly meets and he wasn't aware of the. He'll be joining us not this Tuesday but the next.

Talking Hells Yes!!

Just came back from my lengthy excurZion listening to the fine radio waves of Borla FM. By far one of the best things I've ever done in my life...big shout out to Jim, who probably has the fastest Z I've ever ridden in and the man shifts faster than my mind can think.

Everybody needs to ride in Jim's car and have him rip the tachometer in first. It feels like a blizzard being funnelled into your azz...not that I would know anything about that

No seriously, that is some seriously fast shiznet....



Does anybody know where I can get a good deal on a Kinetix Plenum?

Well guys chock up another Z to a freeway fatility. hit something on the way back from SEMa. Bumpers good, no fluids leaking but my car sound like an '85 F150 missing on two cylinders. No codes yet but I'm lost. dont see any exhaust leaks but I haven't been able to get my car in the air yet. I'm taking a couple days off to try and figure it out. Hopefully by the show or I'm out of it.

Probably just an exhaust leak and easy to fix. Does it get louder when you hit the gas?

Well a MILLION thanks to Chad...Came through in a clutch, Got my car in the air and whatever I hit was hard enough to bend the frame brace below my exhuast up enough that it was touching my exhaust constantly and the vibration was the cause of the noise. Pulled it off, bent it back, Chad applied some black spray paint and its good as new. Thanks again Chad...that ish was clutch!!
