MN Z owners...

Yes, everyone that has a Z is allowed. Even if you have a friend with some kind of favorite car they want to drive and show off.

Sounds good

Are you sure you ment Shells? It's in New Ulm, and Lineis is in Chippewa Falls WI...

SmoothZ · 03-14-2013, 10:56 PM

Yes, I changed it up to mean Schells. There's a guy who owns a restaurant in New Ulm, and he's offered his place up for a party. He's also going to arrange the tour, supposedly free of charge for us. He told me he was going to hook us up with decent food, drinks, and prices.

Old grumpy winter refuses to go away. March is usually the month where winter decides to end or try to fight til April.
There was one year that it snowed in late April. I guess that wasn't a global warming year.

Like Smoothz mentioned, last year was an almost snowless year with warm temps up to December and an early summer in March!

I'm hoping this is the upswing in the season. Spring needs to be here right now!

I'm throwing full coverage insurance back on the Z on the 29th. Hopefully it is warm by then.

SmoothZ · 03-25-2013, 08:37 PM

What's warm? lol

My wife asked me this past weekend when I planned on going full coverage again. I told her towards the end of April. I'm just looking forward to driving my beautiful, white Z anywhere there's melting snow and overspray.

Mai-z · 04-12-2013, 01:01 PM

Anyone around looking for a set of base wheels? They're a bit rough, but it looks like I'll have a set available in the next few weeks.

SmoothZ · 04-12-2013, 08:46 PM

What are you replacing them with?

Figures that as soon as I put full coverage on the Z, this weather goes crazy. I'm not driving my car when there's overspray everywhere.

Kidding... 40th ann rays.

SmoothZ · 04-13-2013, 10:56 AM

Mmm... I like those wheels.

And damn, go to bed already! lol

Hey fellow Minnesotan Z owners! I'm looking to get my Swift springs installed somewhere near the Twin Cities. Can anyone recommend a shop? I found a small "mom and pop" one down in Shakopee that will install for $325. I thought that seemed reasonable compared to the other places I've talked to. But was hoping someone else might be able to chime in for more options. Thanks!

That's too expensive. There's DB Performance in the NW suburbs (Rogers area?). There's also Full Blown down in Apple Valley.

If you can do it yourself, go to the DIY shop in Eden Prairie. I forget the name, but I can find it for you if you're interested in doing it yourself.
