At least my Z is clean and in the garage.

My 260Z is pretty much sold. Just waiting for the guy to come get it with cash in hand. Then I'm going to buy some Berk HFC's for the 350.
Nice...what exhaust are you pairing with the 200 cell Berks?

Don't know yet. Thinking of the Invidia line. I would like to keep the noise down. My trip to Zdayz made me realize that what I have is good for the track and only the track. With a helmet on, I can't hear it. lol

yeah for sure! That's why I asked if you wore ear buds/plugs on the way to NC!

Invidia is a very quiet exhaust, and actually a very good combo with Berks. Berks can get quite raspy, but the invidia is a dampening exhaust which produces a very nice exotic sound. Mike has Berks paired with his invidia and it sounds great. I give it a

For my Nismo, I'll be going with full Fast Intentions again. Very excited for the setup on the Z with it being an all out shorter exhaust. Still deciding on resonator sizes, and if I want RTPs or RHFCs.

Been studying on different coils for the past few weeks now. I ran KW V3's on my G37.....but they're limited to how low they can go on the 370. Have explored other options such as Stance SS+.

So we're in the market for a new vehicle to add to the garage...

It will be gracing my man-cave within a few months.

That's good to know. Thanks for the insight!

I've been seeing some private FS threads for the Gemini. It's tempting.

Gotta take care of the missus first, so it'll be her choice. She wants the new Grand Caravan. Our current one is 12 years old.

Then maybe another "toy" next year...

BTW, great meet! I'm glad you were able to make it. Your car looks better in person, Dre (Dave hopes he spelled it right).
Thanks! It was good to meet some car enthusiasts! I might have to bring my roomate next time. Even though he has an Audi

Funny story, I just walked out to my car and my windows were down.... I was absoultely certain that I left them rolled up. It was the most bizarre feeling. My mind went from someone stole my keys and are messing with me, to wondering if it was possible to hack my car and make it roll the windows down.

I did my research and found out that you can roll down the windows with the key.

It was only our 2nd meet there, and we had been talking about it for a few days. Next time, come on out and bring friends! It will be 2 Friday's from now.

No problem. When Scott and I went to C&C last Saturday, an Audi came with us from Lakeville. I believe it was a performance model of some kind.

For sure man....I'm dropping my car off at Kline tomorrow morning to get the Recall taken care of on the steering lock mechanism.... Do you have any plans this weekend? I definitely want to hear how it sounds with ART pipes....if its not too loud, I may just go with Resonated TPs over the RHFCs. I just want to make sure it sounds perrrrrrty for shows/representing/advertising since I rep/sell their product line.

and yes, for the windows...if you hold the unlock button for like 5 seconds it will roll all your windows down until you let off the button.

How many have shown? I can round up the troops and get a pretty good showing I bet...probably 5-10+
