My last iMac lasted 12 years and still runs strong. No longer upgradeable at all. Makes a great stereo and can still web surf if needed!

Happy day to all!
It's because it's apple.... they're called ibroke series

I've been peeing on the snow in the neighbourhood just to get rid of it. Sure I get a few strange looks, I feel it's for the greater good.
Mr.GaleForce

Snowing has stopped, hopefully we can get couple days of good one this weekend...

The forecast is saying some rain on Sunday and snow on Tuesday...

wish they are wrong about it...

Yeah. Don't do that. I've seen some of those "gatherings". Go drive your Z instead, you'll have more self respect afterwards. It's cheaper than building "decks" too.

Ok I'm not supposed to know this, but my buddy getting married at the end of the month asked my wife about getting me something for the Z as a groomsman gift - he's such a bad a$$ He said something in the $100-$150 range, so I am going to ask you guys for any additional suggestions as well as your opinions on what to get

I am mostly looking at items I would not really consider buying for myself - I put them in order of least likely to purchase. The last two are definitely in the cards at some point in the car's lifetime, just not priority. I have plans for an exhaust and upgraded rotors and pads (and an oil cooler if I ever start shelling out $$$ for track days). FI will remain a dream...

Here are the items I am looking at currently:

Z Speed Performance Aluminum Undershroud ($175 from Z1)

Aluminum Power Steering Reservoir Tank, by Mishimoto ($75 from Amazon)

AMS 370Z Adjustable Short Throw Shifter ($165 from Z1 - I was always looking at the TWM as my first choice, so any input on the AMS would be appreciated)

Z1 370Z/G37 Premium Stainless Steel Brake Line Kit ($125 from Z1)

Please note, I am happy with my shift knob, hood struts, fog light, and start button. Plus I have EVO-R Z emblems that aren't yet installed.

You going limo or something? Custom sounds quoted $165 for 35% all around. Might have been using just regular 3m though.

I would probably do brake kit or under shroud. Is the z1 kit comparable to Goodrich or stop tech kit?

No, I need to keep it legal. Yeah... I'm not going with 3M. I know Huper Optik Ceramic is highly recommended, and I have friends that have it and love it. I just won't spend the money until it's burning a hole in my pocket (there's always something that needs to be paid off first).
