Winters are terrible for me. I start window shopping online for all kinds of new toys. Thinking of building an AR15. But I also need that new exhaust for the Z.

With my house closing scheduled for the 20th, decided I better utilize the heated garage while I have it.

Just finished up relocating my front bumper brackets all together, and deleting the screw. Should completely solve any rubbing issues up front in the wheel well and allow me to slam as much as I please. Nowwww its time to start wheel shopping!

How lower do you plan to go? And any wheels in mind yet? Wish I had a heated garage!

I plan to fiberglass my own front splitter and add on a lip kit. With that said, not much lower that I can go, but I've been rubbing on my front bumper brackets. Once you lower your Nismo, you'll know exxxxactly what I'm talking about. Anyways, they're completely out of the way now, which will allow me to run pretty agressive offsets on my wheel setup as well. I will be going with WORK GS2's. Most likely a 10" or 10.5" in front and an 11" in rear.

Selling the house...perfect time/market to sell so took full advantage of it. Moving back into an apartment for most likely a year while looking for my next house.

Yes, keeping the Nismo wheels for Auto-X and Track events.

I'll most likely still be living in Woodbury. Looking to purchase another house in Woodbury or on WI side to Hudson.

Kind of freaking out right now with needing to move the car in the next 2 weeks, but the roads looking like they do. I need 1 SUNNY day to atleast melt/dry some of the crap on the main road since the apt is about 5 miles from my house.

Do you have AAA? If so just use one of your free tows, request a flatbed and move it. Or just call one so you don't have to subject it to all the salt on the road, that salt dust is everywhere.

This freeze storm doesn't look like it's going anywhere soon.
My Z sits out in the frigid cold under a thick layer of snow. I'm not sure if I should warm it up only for it to freeze again and the thought of those tires getting a flat spot is gnawing at the back of my mind...

Good luck on your move 1cleanZ. Pray for warmer temps. It might help.

Thanks man. With a high of 1 degree today...vs a high of 20 tomorrow and 15 Friday, hoping the move goes smooth on Friday. Next week is suppose to be in the 20's as well which as long as the sun is shining, will get the slush and crap off the roads w/ the combo if salt.

Do you atleast have a car cover on your 370?

hopefully it doesnt snow anytime soon than, but i've seen so much salt on the roads, but i think 5 miles wont do no hard at all.
