having sticky tires in the rear is fine. i think in your case it's do-able if money is tight. just dont get super crappy tires and try to take corners too fast. you will most likely understeer and plow into a tree or light post or mailbox or dumbarse cyclist or even a prius
But isn't killing all the Prius' the name of the game?!

I'm having second thoughts about this GTM MHI TT kit now. I have just enough money to use as a down payment and then money will be extremely tight while paying it off for the next year. It's such a hard deal to pass up though.

I also want another motorcycle since I sold mine a year ago.

My long term (2-3 year goal) is to trade in or sell the Z to fund a used 2012+ GTR, so I might not want to turbo the Z....

Ugh

Food and alcohol kills me the most.

Everyday I spend $8-12 on lunch.

Fridays I go out for some drinks and is usually $30-50

Then I go out randomly during the week. Last night I spent $20 at a bar and $8 on a cigar. None of which I NEEDED.

This isn't counting weekends and going to the movies or car meets that take a full tank of gas either.

Hey Mike!

I'm very curious to know who you registered with to get the invite for the COTA event with Nismo Performance. I registered with Nissan when I purchased the car, but I haven't received anything regarding that event - there were guys posting that said they registered with Nissan about 2 weeks ago specifically to get this invite. I am
