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

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


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

Yep, I know many cary guys who are very silent about their plans, I just don't understand why. Its not a big deal though.

Some won't even disclose which car they're going to lease next.

EDIT: OMG, the TE37 Ultras are .

Thanks for the offer guys.

Im just looking to do and CBE install, front & rear sways along with rear end links. If one of you end up doing it and are willing to show me changing pads and what not that would be much appreciated. I don't usually work on my own cars except rotate tires but I feel like if I want to hit the track Im gonna have to do some stuff at home!


Edit: multi quote fail! galeforce, thanks for the offer as well.

pads are super easy.
a bunch of us actually meet every month or so and have a BBQ/car day.
it changes location but its usually either sauga or GTA
how it works is we all drive to someone's house, everyone brings beer/food/whatever and we all work on the cars all day eating BBQ!
then in the afternoon we hoon like retards cuz we all wanna test out the stuff we installed. it usually ends up at a tim hortons somewhere before we split up and go home. tons of fun.

everyone here (and in our G35/G37/350/370 group) is super friendly and helpful. Id be glad to show you what i know as i've often had NO idea how to install something only to show up to a BBQ and have someone walk me through the install. CBEs you need a lift and a couple of us have garages we can swing by.

That said, i need help doing front BBK install. I rebuilt them (which took forever) but i dunno what else i need (some kinda bracket i heard?)

CBE you don't need a lift! That just makes it easier! almost too easy

I did my test pipes with only jack stands and an extra set of hands to use rachet with long as$ extension to reach down to bolts on the flanges while I wrenched the nuts

I did a complete mid mount turbo kit installation with my car on jack stands. Actually, I did every mod on my car while my car was on jack stands.

I need a lift.
