Sounds like a good plan. It is always exciting to drive the Z!!

It's a tough call. One day last year, a Suburban's tailgate broke open and disgorged a few dozen pumpkins onto the built-out Mini Cooper in front of me.

I was later told my guardian angel was looking after me; to which I replied "No, [the Suburban driver]'s guardian angel was looking after HIM."

I then decided to use the daily driver for a while, because I dislike the idea of prison, even tho I'm sure I would get mad inside cred for beating someone's *** with a pumpkin.

After a while, I did recognize the Z was becoming a garage queen. I love my Z, but it's not a '67 Vette that should only be taken out for the summer parades. Sports cars are meant to, and need to, be driven often.

The Maxima has less power and costs far more than a Z. It's of no value to me. But it's a good car for some

I put 100K on my Z daily driving it and loved every minute. Now I feel I am truly doing it right by building it for the track. I expect at least the same, if not significantly more, enjoyment by treating the way it wants to be treated

Are you putting it together yet or still disassembling it

JARblue · 09-07-2019, 03:26 AM

Well I have a lot of aftermarket parts that require removal of stock parts. So both
