Almost done with my Gen3 install, did all the modifications that were necessary and relocated the horn... So far so good.

All in all there isn't that much cutting/modification that's really needed. Will throw a few pics up when it's done.

It was pretty simple and maybe took 10 minutes. The only issue I had is one I've seen on every car I've owned and removed the bumper to date, and that's the issue where the paint on the edge tab that pops in next to the fender gets a little scuffed because it's so thin at that point...but nothing to be concerned over as long as you're careful. You'd only ever notice it if you put your face down there in that corner/crack and looked at it. My OCD will probably force to me touch up that tab/corner just because, but it's really no big deal.

EDIT: Also, I should add that if you're looking for a hand doing anything of this sort I'm happy to help.

Cool, I appreciate the offer. I don't know that I'll do the CAI, not sure how much real difference it makes. If I do, it'll be on down the line.

Since the install is done I'm selling my K&N drop-ins:

K&N 33-2399 x 2 - (Drop-In Filters for Stock Air Box)

If someone here locally wants to grab them I'll go $75.

Upstate Z Club is doing the fall drive this Saturday if anyone is interested.

From the facebook page:

Our Fall Drive is this Saturday 10/18. We will meet at Cracker Barrel at Exit 40 on I-85. This is the Powdersville Cracker Barrel, not Greenville or Anderson. We'll have breakfast at Cracker Barrel starting at 8:00 and leave somewhere between 9:00 and 10:00. Our destination is Saluda, NC via Easley, Dacusville, Marietta and the Greenville Water Shed. We'll have lunch in Saluda and then journey home.

Free 02 sensor for anyone local. It came off of a 2010 370z nismo. It is the upper 02 that goes into the stock exhaust manifold. I highly recommend some one picking this up if they plan on installing headers onto there Z. If no one takes it I will give it to the garbage man. Cost is at average for one sensor $300, or it was at the time I installed my headers.
