Nice Skateboarding Chris!

Welcome Greddy!

Mackie - I would work on your car but everytime we set something up - you stop answering your phone... GL holmes..

And my car has not had ANY hesitation since I got Erics tails on my ride. Im really happy that was it - I didn't want to find out it was something else. This will be an easy fix.

Understandable, my schedule has been screwed for the past year or so.
Titan looks good Jason.

Next saturday I'm going to cars and coffee. Subaru is doing a cruise out of the boonies that have some twisty roads. I'm going with a subbie buddy of mines if anybody wants to go.

Thanks Jake !
That pool is so much fun.....I'm so glad we finally built one with real pool tile & coping. I love to grind that shiet !

Eric, you guys should just swap and pay Jake some cash. IDK if Jake wants the newer style if it causes the stutter.

Also there is a VQ page on FB....Go to DFW VQ Motorsports and request to be added. One of us will add you. Most of us on the 350Z site also go on the FB site as well.

We will post up meet info or talk a bout the next AutoX or Track day.

If your interested in modding your Z you will learn a lot from this Lounge and the peeps in it.

Post up pics of the Z.

Thanks for the info, Ill check out the FB site. Here is the only picture I have so far, like I said I haven't done much to it, mostly just running through it with a fine toothed comb and fixing all of the existing problems before I start doing after market stuff. The dealership I got if from put the wrong size tires on the front so I fixed that, changed out the thermostat, and fixed the cruise control, and some wiring issues with the speakers. The top has a carbon fiber vinyl on the top, the previous owner did that, I thought it was kind of cheesy at first but now I like the way it looks so i might be keeping it still haven't decided yet. If anyone knows of any other things I should check out I would really appreciate it. The car has 95k miles and is a 6 speed. Ive come across quite a few threads that mention issues with the clutch master cylinder, and slave cylinder but I have not noticed any issues with that. I also came across the oil consumption issues on the 06 so I have been keeping an eye on the oil level.

The way the garages are setup is goofy. It's three cars per garage but we all have sesperate doors but no walls?? It works out ok the guy on my right has a modded 335i and is a nice guy I don't know the person with the z though.

Where is everybody? Nobody posted all weekend. What did everyone do over the weekend? I went to the range and did clay shooting and shot at the range as well. It was my second time clay shooting and first time shooting a hand gun. Clay shooting is so much fun. We need to do a meet and go do that. I think I did pretty good for shooting a handgun for the first time. All those years of counter-strike and call of dooty paid off. I shot with a Beretta.

Mackie, what caliber are all those ? I see a .45acp and maybe 9mm's ?

I actually went to the rifle range on Sat. am.

Scoped in the AR @100yds. Pretty freakin awesome !
