Is that the 2009 Porshe? No it's an 03 Nissan 350Z. Wow! How big is the turbo on that thang? It has no turbo, it's stock. Wow! That thangs pretty fast to not have turbo. Is it a HEMI?

sadly, the stupidest thing i've heard was from a tech at Baker-Jackson Nissan in Houston. he tried to tell me that the holes in my radiator were from the intakes that some "idiot that didn't know what they were doing" installed. i was then not going to tell him that i installed the intakes. being the curious person i am, i popped my hood to see how close the intakes were. i was amazed that somehow my intakes were supposed to have shifted 2 feets over to cut a hole in my radiator. after i made my point to the tech, he said it was then probably from a tool while the mechanic was installing them. and next time i should get all my parts (which should only be nismo bought from the dealership of course) to be installed only at a dealership. damn dumbasses. sorry for the long read.

When walking from my car to the gym, another Z driver asked me what I did to the back of my car it looks nice. After I looked back at my car and chuckled, I said it's an after market exhaust system. Next he asked if it was for the aerodynamics underneath the car, I couldn't take it anymore so I just said yes and ran into the gym.

We were sitting around and someone asked "Is there really such a thing as a "car" or is that belief just a way to separate the experience of getting from one place to another by delineating the forces that allow it into a thing?"

I was like, "Dude, put down the pipe. We assign labels to various "things" within our experience and frankly, assigning a label to the "car" experience isn't too far fetched. But yeah, there is no such "thing" as a 'car' in and of itself. It's just shapes and forces put together to move from here to there."
I found it an odd question.

So I pick up my dinner and coming back home, I see the camaro on a flat bed and him in the cruisers back seat. The DPS cop ended up being friend, so I happen to have a envelope, and I put a banner card for the upcoming PCA roadrace event in and on the front of the envelope I write "here you go dumbass".
this is my favorite! lmao

Me and two friends w/ Z's went to sonic one night. We're sitting on the patio in the middle, our cars all lined up in the stalls, and some flustered and excited high school kid comes up and asks "are those the Nissan Supercars?" We all look at each other and say "Yes!" at the same time. lol. 10 minutes later the waitress asks us " Are those all the same cars?" We just laughed.

those things come stock with intercoolers right? So you can just throw a turbo in it.

Well, I was with phiooz and Jt1zzle tonight and we were at the gas station. This isn't the stupidest question I heard but this lady, who was riding shotgun in a beemer, asked out loud "Hey, what is that?". The Nissan emblem was clearly visible, you'd have to be blind to not see it. Anyway, when she asked that, phiooz and jt came to me and said "Dude, I know what I'm posting in the "whats the stupidest question you've been asked about your Z?" tonight. Lol. Cheers.

Jason (Jt1zzl3) will correct whatever mistake I made.
