Interesting.

Wonder what reasons those could be, exactly?

Something to put on a mods list?

"Bling" that no one can see in the engine bay?

I'm with Critical, worthless mod and waste of money.

On Saturday, I had CiN Motorsports install my Invidia exhaust and delete the flex pipes. Sounds phenomenal!

I do not understand why people give each other grief for their mods. For my part, it's my car that I own outright, it's my money and I'll modify it as I see fit. I do not need anyone's approval (except the Mrs. and she never complains). So why is it necessary to hassle people about their choices?

I just found this awesome online parts store! It's called Kale Co Auto. They have so much amazing stuff I bought one of everything!!

Let's all calm down and quit bashing someone else's mod

You don't know his reasons, so why you gotta be an a$$? If you wanted to know, a better approach surely would be something like: "May I ask why you chose Stillen?" That's a much more pleasant conversation. I got a tune on a nearly stock Z, and I certainly didn't appreciate the idiots telling me that I wasted my $$$ cause I didn't have any mods. I had a perfectly good reason.

Don't post stuff on the internet if you don't want a million opinions on what you're doing, basically.

I couldn't care less if someone wants to blow $1500 on useless headers, I only posted because the dude copped a 'tude because someone shared an opinion.

IMO he only started his attitude because the conversation should have been over after Post #6357. Critical's following post certainly was deserving of a retort like that. Plain unnecessary. I would have given him some lip back as well.

I'm with Critical, worthless mod and waste of money.

It works with what I've got, and it completes my exhaust. I'm glad it's my money I'm "wasting" and not yours.

Look at the title of this thread. It's not one that invites d-baggery. I'm not saying he can't share his opinion, but he could have used more tact in doing so without causing offense. He went out of his way to fish me out. Not cool.

Exactly. I tried taking the high road with him twice but he insisted on being an a$$.

I don't give people grief for this very reason. You mod your car because it makes you happy. I could care less how much money you spend on it, or how much horse power you're able to squeeze out of it. I'm not here to rain on anyone's parade.

Cry more? It's a public internet forum, not nursery school. Best policy is to ignore someone if they say something you don't like.

I will always reserve the right to give people grief if they invite it, like you did.

Hey tall, long time no post! Fun filled car weekend!

Saturday I went to JCCS in Long Beach...the 9th Annual Japanese Classic Car Show. A few years before we can show our cars there.

Fairlady Generations Meet and Cruise Take 3 on Sunday. Here are my pics from the day. https://m.facebook.com/photo.php?fbi...ce=42&refid=17 This was the route before lunch. http://goo.gl/maps/YlPrG We did a few passes after lunch too. Decker to Latigo to Topanga to Old Topanga. For the cruise we had 0 Roadsters (1500/1600/2000), 1 S30, 4 S130s, 0 Z31s, 2 Z32s, 2 Z33s, 2 Z34s. Fun day!

Who's coming to ZCon in Sa Diego next August?
