Nice video, I really like the GoPro. Just curious, what car was pulling away on one of your runs?
Thanks guys, g/l on spring install and likewise on winter wheel swap. Weather makes living on the east coast suck during the winter. I would go crazy having to garage it for 4 months. The good out weigh the bad thou, gotta lub the fall colors, great photo snap days. No Z action today, installed the valve stem caps, driving around with a dirty car. |

Yes indeed! I'll be taking plenty of photos. I took the Z to the Dallas (actually in Plano) cars and coffee this morning. Amazing turnout as always. I'll post some pics up tonight after work. Here are 2 low quality iPhone pics, it's all I got until I upload the real stuff. The lot is huge. By 7:15am there were already about 50-70 cars, yes that's a half an hour before sunrise! You can't even see a quarter of the lot in this photo.

I drove over to Forged Performance for their open house and BBQ watched some dyno pulls and the new Lexus LFA on the dyno was very cool but had to leave early b/c they don't have a big parking lot and people were getting blocked in so I left.

mr.onzedge- congrats! looks good. are you running spacers now too?
i swapped out my G's SSR's to factory wheels with snow tires (LM60's). went from flush to wow, where the hell did the wheels go? look. hahaha. but with only 225/245 i dont want to use spacers as it will look rediculous from the back. i can't believe how sunken in the factory wheels were on the G... last time i used these was a very long time ago so forgot how the car looked. washed the SSR's, polymer sealed them, stacked them up. |
