Thumbs up

So check this out - I was cleaning out the garage and I see a small white box looking thing with a cable attached.. Flip it over and its the hypertech tuner for - you guessed it - the 350z/370z.. It was Stephens from imported performance - ya'll remember that a$$hat right? werd..

So I update it and check and see if I can tune the Z - (JUST TO SEE)..

Sure enough it works like new - slap that bad boy on CL and got 250 bucks for it.. So all in all - I guess that motherfkr did pay me for 6 mos he had his POS car in my garage..

I bought all new tools for my A/C and a new condenser for the Titan.. shiet...
