Well my z is a daily driver, but I autox it and go to 2-4 track days a year.

I eventually plan on doing both, but I am having trouble deciding which to do first.

Which clutch/flywheel did you go with? I was looking at the OS Giken single disk.

hahaha Jake i think we were both talking about doing a 4.08 when we did my spring mount. A guy with a 370z base ran a 12.80 1/4 with only HFC and 4.08 FD.

Squeaky I thought you got new wheels/tires not that long ago?

RCA your sis drives a modded ppw g35? That's hot. Pic of said sis for the rest of the fellas.

350zeemy good investment. Did you get any addons like a backup pienzo siren, tilt sensor etc? I need me one. How much did ya pay?

I need to do the clutch pedal adjustment too. Mines higher than my brake pedal right now and I like low enegagement points. How do you do it again?

Here was my Friday morning...yeah, that is my rear window in the picture on the right. Not a good way to start out my day after I had already overslept.

ha ha, I was waiting for somebody to bring that up. I got my new wheels in May, and I already have worn through the rear tires, only about 15k miles.

I love the new tires, 295/35/18. I will post some pics tomorrow when I get a chance to clean the car up.

Jake, I need to plan another evening with you so that I can roll the rear fenders more and lower the car about 1/2 inch.
