Hey everyone.

So got back Thursday. I was dog tired, but I still took out the Nismo. I think what I posted on my350z sums it up:

Ended up taking the Z up to Iowa to see my little man who's at the grandparents for the summer. I had to see my lil man. Saw a black 370Z on friday on my way outta town, so a shout out to him if he's here.

Got back last night. So I've done my first "long" trip in it, and I can definitely say that I enjoyed it just as much on the freeway (road noise and all) as I did thursday night cruising around KC.

I want to try to make out to todays event but the Z needs washing. Bad.

Ahhh hell. I think I maybe done will all the traveling BS with this job. Got offered a new job making a nice 6 figure salary. Waiting right now to figure out if they are going to fly me and my 400lbs of tools home or drive home. Either way after yesterday almost loosing my pinky yesterday, I'm done. This damn job was trying to leave a little bit more of me before I left it. Nothing like having your pinky finger being crushed by a 1000lb dish. Forgot to take pic's of it but let just say it looked like a flat tire....and somehow didn't break. Still hurts like hell.
So I might be able to be around more often for any gatherings. Once to car is fixed....

Re. The Art of the Machine, thanks to all of you who braved the heat to attend. Also, a special thanks to Jackson for his recruiting efforts. We had about 26 cars there of almost every generation. It was a great "history" of the Z.

Jackson, please post photos.

You and me both. Pueblo ...owner of the blue supra said a year ago he was going to sell his for $35,000...and it has 600+hp. I doubt that price is still good.

i'd rather supercharge a nsx. i lean toward style over speed

edub370

they are pricey. but being able to handle 800hp on stock internals is impresive

tho, the nsx's are sexy

Well start the new job on Monday. It's probably gonna mean the Z is gone once I get everything fixed. Test pipes will be ordered tomorrow and the tune will follow shortly after. I don't know if Chad is gonna get his UpRev by then but if not then it's off to Union,Mo to get it done.
Then the car will probably be sold....out of state to someone who doesn't know about all the issues I've had with this system. Couldn't do that to someone local and find out the car blew up a few weeks later. I doubt it will but ya never know.

That's a bummer to hear. So are u on to bigger and better things for your next toy, or u getting another z some day?

Btw, You should sell me the kit for hella cheap!
