happy new year KC bros!

Man I'm gonna drive my on Tuesday

Happy New Years to all the KC Z guys. Hope all those winter mods are coming along well!

Happy new years you guys. I was at Uptown last night. Drank and danced my face off. What did everyone else end up doing?

Mavs game, then whiskey tangos. Paying for it today...

Acoul82, congrats on the new z. Can't wait till spring so we can get everyone together. No winter mods for me as of yet tho. What winter mods does everyone else got goin on?

Just finished installing 20mm spacers all around. Added the Stillen Gen3 intakes 2 days ago. Last but not least, i have to install the Swift springs which should round out my list of winter mods.

You will love the swifts. One of the best mods i have done

FI exhaust will be here in February and Boosted performance single turbo as soon as he gets the second batch done.

B&M shifter sitting on the shelf.

Sticking to the plan, not sinking much money in the Z till I get her closer to paid off. Definitely the mistake I made last time and I learned from it.

Money is going towards guns and zombie preparedness items. LOL

same....

my best friend picked up a new dually with no cab, twin turbo diesel, already chipped it for something like 500hp and 800lb-ft of torque.

total ugly work truck pretty much woopin on my z now :mad:

long time no see sir! how u been?

btw, diesles cheat. get him on the highway, then he'll run out of gear and aero lol.

Branson Z Fest 2013 Dates Set
 

The "officially official" dates for Branson Z Fest are confirmed to be May 31-June 2. These are the official dates but many people start arriving earlier in the week. You can now start scheduling your vacation. Registration and the website will be open later.

Sweet, I was just in Branson over Xmas and def want to go back for this event. Thanks for the heads-up.

must make it this year! we gotta get a group together to go down

Well I guess all of my mods will have to wait another year to install. Just dropped a shyt ton of money on a new living room set.:mad::tup:.

The new TV coming with the set next month will ease my pain of STILL NOT HAVING THE DAMN BODY KIT on my car. Who knows I might still be able to get it done...doubt it but I can hope.:tiphat:

ya ima try my hardest to go this year, but it is the next week after we get back from zdayz.

forgot to mention I recently stepped up as the web director for the hazcc, and now am on the board of directors :icon17:

soooo for those of you who have not already, I will be bugging the sh!t out of you to join. it'd be really nice to have some more 370 love. take advantage of those many discounts too.

and we need some more youth... ethan........:ugh2:

yea, im trying to get more involved this year. i need to stop being lazy. u let me know which event to make and i'll be there. bout time all the kc guys combine forces lol

Ethan, did you install the springs yourself? If so, any pointers you got. I found a DIY for installing springs , not swifts, but the process should be the same.

yea, i did the install myself. one thing i will say i did that made me alot more comfortable is got a spring compressor with a locking pin.

something like this:

Performance Tool Professional Strut Spring Compressors W89322 - SummitRacing.com

made me feel like i wasn't handling a loaded gun. i would start with the fronts, as those will be the most difficult. took me about 3-4 hours. Its nothing too difficult, jsut kinda time consuming.


backs require 1 bolt to get out, and will probably take 20 min to do both. if u need a hand, just gimme a holler and i can come help

Thanks Jackson for your service to your Z Club.

I need to join already. I've been a bit of a recluse since coming home from Afghan. Talked to the wife and she's still keen to join us on an outing sooner or later, if she can ever get some time off work.


As an aside, I'm loving this weather.

bleh, it needs to be warm and sunny again. ya we can get a few people to go and support hazcc next time

Hey who do we know that has a grey 350Z with an Extreme Dimensions Vader style hood? May be a Seibon VT CF hood.

Well, my baby got here mid-week! Here is a pic after I had a chance to wash her on Friday! Lovin the color changes in the 40th paint

Welcome, aCoul82. mmm 40th's are so sexy. nice to see some new z owners pop up here in kc!

Very Nice!! CongratZ. Enjoy the ride.

congrats love that color soo much, only thing better is the interior.

I have about six 40th z aluminum water bottles from zcon, nissan was giving them away like hotcakes, maybe if your nice I can give you one :tup:

and welcome, since you made it this far you should stick around this section, and come to some event sometime this year.

I wish i could get those 40th wheels on my gun metallic. I love that darker color.

check edge573 on here. His car was gun metallic and he had some gunmetal vossen cv3's on there. Looked sooo good

EDIT: i have some pics of his car from the dyno day

U bet, would love to see some of the mods everyone has made in person to consider doing on my car. My last car was an RSX type S. I had CAI, headers, CBE, pulleys, and an ECU tune

Welcome aCoul. I'm new around the city and on this board, and I can tell you these guys here are a wonderful bunch of people. Our group is small, but very friendly.

It's not the size of the group, it's the way you use it.:icon23:

Welcome aCoul....There seems to be a few more people going towards FI on their Z's here in KC. I'm still the only one but hoping to have some others soon. Also with the UpRev issue being solved and that we have one close to home will help us keep pushing the mods foward. Good luck and love the car!

i THINK i saw your car heading south on metcalf, just before 435, by chartroose caboose. if not, theres another 40th running around

agreed. we have a good bunch of guys around here.

anyone else jonesin for some warm weather and curvey roads about now??

got a influx of work since the new year, couldn't be happier:excited:

pretty sure i'll be shopping for a sr20 for the datsun soon.

oh and should be vinyl wrapping the z when it gets a lil warmer, ordering some sample colors today. just can't decide

Do you have a short list of colors?

here's the hexis vinyls, also like the 3M dark grey

if i dont like the hexis teal, then ima go with some shade of matte grey

That's cool. Why not wrap it in one of the carbons or real tree from bass pro shop?

Could have been me, I take 435 EB to Metcalf for work. But I know there is at least 1 more close bc I work on the Sprint campus and I've seen it in my same garage.
