Never heard back from anyone . On a good note my car is still perfectly detailed with the cover on it! I do still need to change my oil. Going back to the stock stuff with a filter mag and magnetic drain plug.

Hey you think if I remove my oil cooler lines and blow compressed air from my compresser that I can get the oil out of my cooler? My lines run in from the top and I dont want to remove the cooler just to drain it. Holla

BTW probably going to be this time next year before I go with the GTR. To much going on with work (need new equipment) and the home life (need house closer to town). Im gonna wait for the 2014 model. The 12's and 13's are the same for the most part anyways.

Keeping the Z untill then, but still selling the camaro sooner than later.

What happened to Matthew? Sorry I had to bail.

It might work but it sounds like a potential mess. I would think taking the lower line off, it will drain. I will have to look at mine again. Might be easier to just flush it like a trans. It won't be perfect or cheap but you will get most of the bad oil out.

Yeah, If you are going to keep it mostly stock then I would wait.

I sure wish you'd won that game before playing my Gators I'd rather not play a team that's pissed off from the week before. I definitely don't think we're "back" but we're on the path which is alot better than the last two years lol Oh, ordered the JDM clear tails for my Z and will be installing them tomorrow. Remember you saw it up at CIN that day. Good luck on Saturday!

I will agree that your chickens have a tough schedule. If they can come into the Clemson game with less that 2 loses, it's going to be a huge game.

Well it looks like I'll be moving out to Afghanistan next summer. :/

Autocross has been great. I have this burning desire to buy a set of sport wheels and Hoosier race tires before the season ends.

So far the Z has:
- K&N Drop ins
- RE11's 275/30 Fronts and 305/30 Rear (I may be off on the sidewalls)
- Eibach Front Sway Bar
- Stillen CBE
- one passionate driver

Here's the results from the last race: Summary Results – SCR AutoX #6

Not too bad for some minor mods and street tires.

If you're really bored here's three runs compiled together. I forgot to trim some extra space on vids...sorry. Available in 1080P 370Z @ Freestyle Magic Park AutoX - YouTube
