Yeah, but I'm not driving up there just for the day. I can't do the 13th or 14th. Oh well. You all just keep it on the 29th. I will catch the next one. Sorry again! Work has been crazy lately.

Just to give you a hard time I once drove to charleston for a parant teacher meeting, took my son out to dinner, meet up with the Z boys at Wild Wings, and then made it back to Greenville in time for work on Friday?! You would do it for a clemson game so dont give us no shiznit boy!!

honestly I would like to come up and knock out a game witha cruise but doesn't seem like it's going to happen.

What about Nov 10-11 or 17-18?

My Z came in, this is the only pic i have on my phone right now..

Also my Tommy Kaira shift knob and Red Status Racing seats are in. Decided on Bride FO bases and rails.

Holy crap I tried digging thru the last 100 or so pages to find the posts where you guys went to the dragon and someone ended up getting a new clutch....

...sorry I have horrible short term memory from all the explosions, mortar rounds and just plain hitting my head...

...anyways today after not driving for almost a week I take the Z out and almost immediately the clutch pedal feels a little softer. Power just doesn't feel right. My MK5 VW makes power and tq but nothing that would let me forget about how the Z feels.

Hmm...damnit and I was trying to save up for some wheels for the GTI too.

Well we never made it to the dragon on the last run but we did have some issue's with the clutches. There were only three of us on the last cruise so we were able to run the Z's pretty hard. The roads were great with lots of turns and the elevation was pretty high too. I just replaced my clutch fluid and the line so will see how that holds up this next time. You coming up for the cruise on the 30th?!

Man this thread is getting boring.....I think that work is getting everybody down a little bit. To much work and not enough play!

IMWEZL · 09-14-2012, 08:53 AM

Yeah work...keeps on surprising me. On a good note I got a chance to swing by Z1 Motorsports yesterday and pick up some goodies. Anyone going to ZNatZ?

Thanks Will, i am still trying to figure out what wheels i want to go with... BUT these wheels for stockers are sexy as hell... I wish someone made something very similar Forged monoblock with lower offsets and the same concavity and little step lip the NIsmo wheel has.

Only thing that may be close is the Advan GT wheel which is set to release a 19inch end of this year... 5 spoke concave with a lip... Hot

Yeah, that advan is going to be a sick wheel. I love the simple 5 spoke wheels.
