Morning, I've spun 2 360's over by 20 and 360 once when it started hailing, not a good feeling when you lose control of your car like that. Luckily there wasn't anyone around my car when it happened which is rare for that part of I20.

Something like that happened to me on 635 one night near Marsh. It all happened in front of me and went off to the right when I was in the left lane.

Good Morning, at least for me since I am two hours behind. I guess it is about noon there.

Sounds like everybody had fun at the drift event and that everybody is safe. I wish that I would have been there but I will be at the next one.

Good afternoon DFW.

Jason it's good to hear you didn't end up part of that accident.

I haven't been to a meet or event in a while cause of work and it's pissing me off. Anything going on this week?

I come back tomorrow and I can't wait. I have had fun here in Reno but it is time for me to come back home.

It's funny because in Texas I have my Z, a truck, and I am about to get a bike. In Reno there is nothing. My mom doesn't have a car so we have to try to borrow her sisters car if we want to go anywhere, and she isn't easy to get a hold of. We have borrowed the car once and the other time I went to the store I just walked.

She has a Stratus with the 4 banger and that thing is slow. lol

I am installing new coilovers and camber kit on Wednesday if you want to help.

I would ask Kristi but I don't want the car down for a couple days.

Yeah man I'll help out with that. Sounds fun. I've done several springs installs, but haven't done coilovers yet. Should be extremely easy.

Speaking of Kristi, has she still not installed her front springs?

Thanks Eric, I still have your cell number and i will give you a call sometime tomorrow evening when I get back in town. I have to stop by my work to get all the parts since I had them delivered there.

I am pretty sure that I have all the tools needed. I need to get a dremel for the rear camber kit but that isn't a big deal.

Sorry Kristi, I couldn't help it.

Jeremy,

I have a Dremel and a new multi-piece kit for it so I can bring that. I can also bring an extra set of jack stands, electric impact gun, etc. Just let me know what to bring to make things easiest.

I am not exactly sure what you should bring. I have not messed with the suspension on the Z yet. I have a pair of jack stands but they suck. lol I have all the sockets and then some needed to do this.


Intense Sales is still screwing me over. They shipped the item but I don't know where they shipped it to. They didn't ship it to my address and some person that I have never met has signed for it. They told me it would ship out through UPS and gave me a Fedex tracking number.

Woah man that sounds screwed up. Someone has already signed for it? Are you in an apartment complex? Could be at the office.

I have been trying to call the office but nobody will answer. I hope it is there and they "forgot" to place a not on my apartment.

Regardless, it was still delivered to the wrong place.

There is nothing like waiting for 2 weeks for a simple intake. lol
