Damn that sucks. Could be an accident or could be a hater. I usually park a good 20ft away from everyone else lol.

Been offline for a week. Update: thanks Mr. onzedge for posting up some pics of Z's in your backyard. What are a bunch of guys with Z's doing there??? Z1 25 row oil cooler installation on mine and the red Z. All went well, only mishap was overfilling the belly with about 7/8th of a quart of oil. The boys did very well, top notch installation and I would not hesitate recommending them in the future. Pass the word. Enjoy the islands !!

Just in case anyone was wondering WTH is this pic of a front end of a Z. It's my awesome front fang black out. One of a kind! Plus the beastly stance, sport wheels on 20mm rolling on 265's. And finally the clean headlamp housing. Led parking lights and turn signals with no egg yokes. Very clean.

Happy Sunday to all and enjoy today's NFL games. If I was a gambling man I would have made a mint off my choices yesterday to win - 49's and the Pats. Today my picks are the Giants and Ravens. If Giants win then the 49's get home field when they play them. Quote of the day "The Grab".

Today: drove the filthy, dirty old lady to the movies.

Removed the lower engine cover to take pics and video to post on my NST pulley install. When installing the NST kit, I suggest getting their Gates K070786 belt.
Video shows pulleys installed using the stock belt. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=De9_MWlruRg&feature=g-upl&context=G28bc6e0AUAAAAAAAAAA

Pretty day in Houston so I snapped a couple of pictures of the car while it was clean. Rain expected this week.

The first shot is of the car when it was about three weeks old. The other three were taken today showing the drop, spacers, Nismo bumper and rims. AJ at CarbonSignal is tempting me with a CF ducktail, and I think I'm going to pull the trigger.

Was hoping to get my Z on the dyno and see what i'm putting down, but the dyno decided otherwise and quit working the car before me.
