Oahu Sightings!

Are there any cars and coffee groups on the island? Last time I was there I think my friend dragged me out to one meet at 6am down by the NEX/airport area. I'll be driving around a rental for a month until the Z arrives :/

I'm currently in Waikiki for vacation and probably scared the crap out of each other as the 2013 graphite? Z pulled out of the parking lot. I waved sorry as I was sprinting.

I was in Waikiki this morning, but it wasn't me.......so no crap on my seats!!!

Magic Bus · 07-06-2013, 02:47 AM

By the way.....Enjoy your vacation here

IMWEZL · 07-10-2013, 12:12 AM

Alright so my Z finally arrived, dirty as fcuk but it's here. Now I just have to swap out some FSB end links and she's ready for Sunday's Test N Tune Auto-X.

Can't wait to meet you there Jay. It'll be great to see another 370z running. What group are you running? I'm in Group B, Running heat 1 and 2 and working 4.

IMWEZL · 07-10-2013, 03:24 AM

Hey Chris...same thing. For some reason there are not too many other 370Z Auto-X, great car for it too. I think I'm running Group D. I'll probably end up working wherever. I like to run after cones...lol

chrischhorn · 07-11-2013, 01:23 AM

Kind of sad that my car will not be anymore prepared then it was last year. New tires won't be in, brake pads and camber kit won't arrive till next week, my diff and 4.08 gears won't be ready. If I get em back tomorrow, I probably won't have enough miles on it before its broken in unless I drive around the island 20 times Saturday night.

When you auto-x with a lot of mods done at one time the car will feel drastically different. I did the same with my SRT4 and ended up with forearms like Popeye fighting all the torque steer.

On another note....fcuk I forgot how bumpy the roads are out here. I'm going to have to find a daily. I'm too old to drive the Z to work every day after doing PT with these youngins.

chrischhorn · 07-11-2013, 02:02 AM

By the way, had a 2013 GM run up my *** this morning. Thought he was catching up and was gonna give a wave but he pulled up next to me, didnt even look over and just sped off.

Magic Bus · 07-11-2013, 06:36 PM

Wasn't me, but walking along Kapiolani Blvd this morning about 9:45 I saw a nice Pearl White driving in the Diamond Head direction. Was it you?

PeteZ · 07-11-2013, 10:45 PM

Saw a Black Nismo off of Nimitz by the airport/Hickam back gate on Tuesday, a silver base on Hickam by the gym yesterday, and a GM base (maybe touring) by Subway on Ford Island today. Anybody?

chrischhorn · 07-13-2013, 12:51 AM

Yeah, I'm not too worried about it though. Nothing is adding power but everything is for making what I have easier to handle. BUT I got my diff back today but not going to install it for the AutoX. I feel I won't have enough time to break it in properly so I don't wanna risk damaging it.
