lol car looks unhappy between all the snow

i think its happier then being tucked away for 3 months like some other NY guys do. its just sad b/c it has boring wheels on.

Dont say boring wheels too loud lol, the stock guys might get a little emotional from that comment.

hahah hey, i like them but they are definitely not anything to go crazy about.

Wipes tears from my eyes. :shakes head:

those wheels look better in person for some reason.

haha, is that a reference to what i think it is?

No no lol, I mean I saw them in person and I see them now in pictures and although they look awesome in pictures, they look even better in person!

ohahah i thought you meant like, you saw the forged specialties in person and now seeing my car with the 18's you were like 'ohh the wheels looked better in person'
:p

haha, I'm not that clever and you wouldve been the only one who got the joke. Good one though lol

haha yea i read into things to much sometimes:icon17:

So i finally got some good driving shoes by the advice of steve (m4a1mustang)

i really like the shoes (its really nice to actually be able to feel the pedals) but that brought me to an issue. i tried to heel-toe in them, and because the sole is a bit narrower (i wear a size 10) i can't heel toe in them. I found that out the hard way as i went to blip the throttle while braking and shifting from 3rd to 2nd and i totally missed the accelerator. This problem left me with 3 solutions.

1. Turn on SRM (free)
2. Return the shoes (-$75)
3. Buy new pedals (~150)

Of course, i had to opt for the third option.

I just placed an order for some SRP Pedals SRP Nissan 370Z Racing Pedals

I order a set with the GRID pattern (which has the best grip) in Black/Silver Anodized.

The total came to 174 plus 6 for shipping. that additonal porton on the left side of the accelerator will be exactly what i need to be able to heel toe in these driving shoes.

Next up is a short throw shifter. These two mods will help to make the tactile sensation of driving the z even more fun than it is now (for me at least)

Toxik Got a new berk exhaust installed yesterday, so i bought his Nismo exhaust with an xpipe for a good deal. I love the tips, and the sound is nice. Its deeper at lower rpm, and still quiet enough for a DD. I'm happy with the look and the sound. I'm sure most people want something louder, but this suits me and what i wanted. Here are some before and after cold starts (each shot first thing in the morning on separate days)

Exhaust sounds good.
