Welcome Jeremiah, or James or JJ ??? .....Haha just pokin' fun since you said people at work called you James, but you introduced yourself as Jeremiah, and you signed your post JJ. 
So which is it ???
because around here we'll call you you something you might not like ! Lol j/k 
Anyways James we have a good bunch of people around the DFW area that stay fairly close to local events & whatnot....I'm glad your into some AutoX. We have a pretty good size group that go out to Mineral wells or TMS for some local events. I hope to see you out at one soon to introduce myself.
I know you mentioned Haslet as your new Home....I'm not too sure how many of the 350Z/G people are in the Ft. Worth area. Most of the peeps I know of personally are in the Dallas general area.....Carrollton, Flower Mound, Richardson, etc....But like I said, I will look forward to meeting you in the future at some point.

Cool, yea looking forward to it. I have not auto-x / tracked this car yet. Will be good to see how she performs. I did events here and there in my Evo, but I no longer have it due to my divorce. Now some fun in the Z has been on the list haha.
Area doesn't matter man. I like driving and going to meet people, so DFW and surrounding area is good for me. Same here bro, look forward to meeting you and the others.
A little pic of what she looks like now.

Thanks!!
Well thanks bro.. I think so too!!
Correct, that is the TSII hood. That was the only hood that I liked and would let some air out from the turbos. Can not have a hot engine bay. You did the 380R mod? I like the way that looks as well. so back at you.

Haha....
Appreciate it man...Yea I have something to keep me busy and to have fun.
I would be more the Auto-x/ Road race type honestly. I'll go to any event though. And of course, What's the point of putting time and money in your car just to let it sit and look purty haha.
I like having fun...and seeing others in the rearview(hopefully haha)

there's about 8-10 of us that like to meet up once a month for autox even though it is rare that all of us are there at the same time but we still tend to have a good turn out every month. Check out our scheduled events in the meet ups section. Any of the VQ championship stuff is us. Can't wait to meet you and see your z doing what it was meant to do!

Transmission is out - that was very interesting bymyself...no tranny jack...had man handle the bish...
Also figured out why I grind in 2nd and 3rd (only during aggressive driving)..never swapped the throwout cause I thought it was fine - little did I know the difference between the 2..
Throwout bearing - OEM vs JWT

Welcome! We have a nice good size family of z's and g's around here and are always happy to have another. Especially one that tracks with us
there's about 8-10 of us that like to meet up once a month for autox even though it is rare that all of us are there at the same time but we still tend to have a good turn out every month. Check out our scheduled events in the meet ups section. Any of the VQ championship stuff is us. Can't wait to meet you and see your z doing what it was meant to do!

I'll be glad to join. Have to do more than just look good haha.
The coilovers were put in yesterday and they feel really good. We have some backroads here and it was like a kart. Very smooth and surprisingly not a bad ride for daily. Next is fuel, haltech, and gauges....all working up to the final build.
see you guys soon!!!Thanks everybody for the welcome.
