kinda yes. its a bit more involved than that but yes.
with any kind of racing making the car lighter helps it in almost all respects
better braking
faster acceleration
better handling
most of the fun of driving occurs between 60 and 200 anyways.

im either going to go with a really high attack angle wing or 2pc rotors next.

OT: Are any of your dealerships mod-friendly? I probably shouldn't bring a modded Z back to the dealer for any type of work/service right?

depends on what you are going in for..................

going in for a warrenty claim probably not the best idea, they would say something along the lines of "you know that shift knob you installed may have affected your steering lock I am affraid we are no longr able to cover it under warrenty"

if your just going in for oil change or service work then sure NP they would love to drool over your car and happily take your money! but as soon as you try to get something out of them you will likely hit a few bumps along the way

question for you GTA guys that may or may not know Harvin but did he sell is Z or is he?

my younger brother was telling me that a guy he knows from school bought/is buying "the mellow yellow from importfest" he said something about the guy already put a down payment on it!

I hope this helps the Z community come to life more out here in South Western Ontario

I would do it for you, but Cobourg is a bit of a drive from Brantford.

and as for Harvin, pm me ill explain what's happening. and for your brothers friend... his name is Miki Culum. I dunno what im allowed to say about either car tho lol

and the reason im not divulging anything is there isnt anything to say. I have a bunch of parts sitting in my basement, nothing is 100% yet ... im very open to trading and/or selling what i have to get a more optimal setup. Hence my earlier questions about setups.
I have seats (90% chance i wont be keeping these tho),coils, sways, intake, exhaust (mid and x) rims and brakes all sitting around.
All of it is new in box (opened cuz i couldn't help myself) but all still in packaging so its good to sell/trade if i find a better deal.

At the moment i have a huge issue with deciding whether to keep the TEs i have or trade them for a square setup of larger TEs. Or sell these and buy new TEs that are lighter but a lot more expensive. Or wait for the TE37 ULTRAs that are coming out this summer which are designed for GTRs (and thus fit our cars perfectly as well). Also not sure if i should sell my Coilovers for the new iPhone controlled ride height KW V3s (which sound cool as hell)... or just sell both rims and coils for boost.

see what i mean? i didnt want to go into it because nothing is set in stone and i dont wanna say i have all this and halfway down the line decide on putting a downpayment on a place and sell it all lmao. i personally give no Fs about being cryptic or do what all my carshow friends do "you'll see it at the show" kinda stuff. its a car, srsly who cares. plus everyone who has me on instagram/tumblr has already seen pics of all this.

Sounds like Miki is selling his white z to move on to Mellow Yellow. Lol

The scene is not that big and its not like anyone really cares about what's happening with the next guy, everyone's got their own car to worry about but to each their own
