I still want to meet you jar! I have to say it has always been such a positive experience!

Texas is like 2 day drive? Lol or maybe 3.

ZDayZ next year y0

Takes me 5 hours just to leave the state. If I were you, I'd just fly. The visit to Austin is worth it.

well i didn't do it today but got a sudo update on it... dropped it off at Soho Motorsports friday for some drivetrain love. clutch, lightweight flywheel, cmak kit, carbotech LSD and a 4.08 FD gear install. should be a fun combo when I get it back!

The other piece on the other hand, I have to wait 2 weeks for it to be made before it ships from Japan.

Great list of mods! Those are the next big things on my list.

I'll probably shoot for the Nismo ratio though, 3.90. A 4.08 might be a bit much, for me anyway.

1600 miles... i did 750(1200km) miles in a day a few times. Too much. Especially when you stop for lunch to meet presto for chipotles... lol

Thats a 3 day drive one way

You don't want to go to Oklahoma lol. He can come visit you.

Where you going in Asia? Thinking maybe I'll drive the Z to Japan after ZDayZ

Took some stuff out of the trunk bc that puppy isn't moving out of the garage for 6months.

There both are good, with the ARK you will get less drone and still sound sweet.
if you have HFC it will be louder.

if i had bought new i probably would have done the same. I had 4.36 in my 240sx. THAT was ridiculous. so i'm hoping only going up one spot from the nismo won't be stupid lol.

4.08's are great. You will feel the difference. A tune will be needed to line up your SRM.

One of the many reasons why I chose the base model myself. The more "manual" my car is, the better IMHO.
