Great meet guys! Can't wait to see some of the shots the people with the nice SLR's took! These ones from my pocket instamatic will have to suffice for now, but it shows the great turn out!

And thanks for the ride after Tom. I know you had to bolt so i appreciate you taking the time to let me hear the FI system from inside!

Sounds like I missed a good meet. Hopefully we can plan another on later one this summer.
Did anybody bring significant others, or was it all guys?
What did you think of Tom's exhaust when you took a ride. I've heard it outside, but I am concerned about the noticable drone in the cabin?

Yep, significant others always welcome!

I really like the exhaust sound inside the cabin. It was a very short ride as Tom had to get going to a family event. He did mention to me that if you do a lot of constant speed highway driving, the drone is there and can get to be a bit wearing. Not really an issue for me as at this point, I don't do a lot of constant speed highway driving.

I picked up a new iPhone this afternoon and am trying to figure it out, after switching from a Blackberry. Does anyone have any experience with synching the Bluetooth? For some reason the iPhone doesn't seem to find the Z.

Dizzy, you were totally right about the shifter, I managed to change it in 5 mins in the parking lot of booster juice this afternoon using the trusty hand wrench.

Cool, shifter looks good !!
Now ill have to try to get the Nismo shifter on this week, hope the stock one comes off as easy as yours did.

Adam, got the Nismo shifter knob installed, although much more difficult than yours to remove old one.
It just wouldnt turn, so had to try a few tricks from another posting.
Finally got it off, but leather wrap around outside came off, middle leather piece stayed on , actually looks ok

Love the new shifter, feels and looks great, thanks again Adam!!

Hey DJ, did u ever get a chance to sort/edit these pictures, just looking to see some nice shots that your friend took, she took a ton of pictures!

LMBmikeZ · 06-26-2011, 07:48 PM

Alphawerx - I am definitely feeling the straight pipe setup you and djsquall have! I will be putting a set of those into my plans for the car. Also if you do decide to get some wheels this year remember I want dibs on those spacers! and some decals? Also my buddy was wondering if u sell the tees with the alpha squad and the logo on it like dj's? If so we would both want one to lol!

Hey Mike, It was nice meeting you and your buddy. Whenever you're ready let me know and we'll slap those pipes on. I will definitely let you know when I change my set up for the rims. If you want, you can PM your address and I'll send the stickers and tees to ya. I'm planning to design new tees in the near future ... any suggestions for designs on the tees that would spice things up for toronto Z guys would be great. See ya at the next meet!!

P.S. It was a great turn out today and it was a pleasure meeting you all. I will push to get those pics up for you guys ASAP!!... until the next episode we shall meet again!!

DjSquall · 06-26-2011, 08:20 PM

Hmmmm I might have an objection about the spacers lol

DjSquall · 06-27-2011, 08:48 PM
