I hope you go I would like to see how the Greddy kit performs compaired to the 2 JWT G35s that are going to there. I think SylvanLake said he is going to run on street tires and RedG35 will be there as well with his JWT TTkit it would be nice to see all those fast cars on the same day. I think a bunch of G/Zs are going to United Cycle this Friday as well.

I would like to see your car Travis! If you still have the springs for Wayne I could grab them from you, I think he said Lloyd might pick them up from you so I dont know if you still have them.

Well Saturday looks like a go. Can you believe my chipped key died and that is why my throttle didn't work????

What a **** off. I was pulling my hair out and my friend who is great with wiring couldn't find a problem.

But I use my other key, and Vroom, everything works.

Now I just have to put my non-dented fenders on (Long Story) and finish my interior/aero work but I don't need that stuff to come out and have a good time.

See you guys there!

Sylvan Lake V35 - I will bring those springs/struts.

Travis

It was a good turn out Sorry I missed you Travis. I saw your car a few times but no one was around it. It was good to meet Sasha and I few others I had not met. I ran alot slower than ususal I had bad wheel hop with the Falken tires my 60' times were 2.5sec my best time for the day was 13.4 @110 I had to let off to control the wheel hop then ease back into it.

^^yeah nice to meet all you guys as well. Too bad about your wheel hop, I am sure your car is capable of 12's. I also missed Travis, I guess he left when I got there. The good thing is that all my parts are on the way now, Garret 60-1, tial 38mm W/G, flanges and all that good stuff. Now I just have to park the car and get to work, and maybe next year I'll be able to get some 13 second passes in.

I have several 12sec passes on street tires and on DRs but just not Saturday. I cant wait to see what you come up with for your custom Turbo kit. Next year I hope we can get together more as everyone is getting to know each other better. at the start of the summer I didnt know more than 1-2 G35 guys now I am good friends with several guys.

^^Up untill recently I didn't know anybody. I'll start a DIY thread with pictures on the turbo build when fabrication begins. I have bough almost everything already, and my budget is looking very good. The goal was to spend no more than $3k on the build itself. As it sits right now I may be about $50 over, so I'm happy. I bough only quality parts including all stainless tubing 2.5" and 3" (for downpipe)

What's wrong with your IC piping? Is it hitting/rubbing somewhere?

I'm getting a couple of ebay universal 2.5" IC pipe kits and then I'll just weld them all up as needed. I'v been polishing up my aluminum welding skills at work, so my welds on the IC piping should be perfect.
