Hi guys. Sorry for the rant yesterday. Appreciate the words of encouragement Kenman the issues are at the hospital not with the fire department. We have a great chief at the fire department and it is very easy being an assistant chief with him. As for my Z I have an appointment at 1030 am today. Just regular service have just under 4000 miles on the car.

Congrats to everybody with new parts and mods. On my ZL1 front there may actually be light at the end of the tunnel. A guy posted that he is receiving his ZL1 today. He is the first to post that he is receiving his. So things are looking up and I expect to get news on where I stand in the next week.

Hopefully you get yours sooner than you expect!

Oh man m4 looks like you put your finger where it shouldn't be LOL. I'm thinking at least 6 weeks from order acceptance to receiving it. NO chance for ZDayZ.

The 14z is the thin and light one. Not as thin as the XPS 13 ultrabook (which I want) but more powerful and practical. I didn't get the souped up one. The specs are:

Core i5-2450M - 2.5/3.1 Ghz, 3MB cache
8GB DDR3
750GB 7500RPM HDD
Intel HD 3000 onboard gfx

Its pretty quick and does everything I need it to do. Looks real nice too. Compact and fairly light (under 5lbs). Got it for $899.

P.S. -- Good Morning, Misters

P.S.S. -- Fantastic tire!
Good monring, everyone.

P.S.S. ?!?!?!?!? Uh oh. I feel something coming over me.

I need to hurry up and get them on the S2000, but I'm in the process of having a ring made so the bank account is a little shocked.

morning zman! nice! those silicon hoses keep temps inside cooler too... well, from what i read. i dont know for certain.

sucks that the nut stripped through. yah, also banging on the nut with a hammer a little too before you turn can loosens up rust sometimes. GL!

if there's enough clearance sears sells various 'easy-out's that bite into the stripped fastener while you loosen it. with rusted bolts/nuts you only get a few tries before it strips or breaks off.

I have done so far what I want to be done to my Z, ClearBra, CAI, Tires/Rims, Spacers, Spoiler and HU. Maybe some redline products later on and I am thinking about going to upgrade the brakes when the OEM is done...
morning mr.alcheng- about the shoes... we better check with luna cause he's a shoes-guy..

sounds good on the mods.
