Though the power.. and V8...



*edit*

also, cool shot too if you took it.

Yeah, I understand that gripe...but I'm driving the thing, not looking at it, so not such a big deal to me.

The engine sound though...

Haha, Yea. You will have to give me a ride in it sometime.


Hows the gas mileage in it?

still breaking it in, but better than 20mpg. I'm averaging better than the Z did during break-in.

I'm planning on rolling out to the meet on Friday if you want to check it out-- it's pretty nuts.

I haven't driven it... So I don't know how it is... But I plan to maybe come this fall or something.

There was a really great cruise last year that should be happening again this year as well. The Evo guys are already talking about the same thing.

Here's the coverage from last year:

So now that you've traded, you're now obligated to yet another marque club--Rocket City Mustang Club. So to stay fully engaged, you have to hit 4 club meetings a month--Nissan, Subaru, s2000, and Mustang.

And then there's the web sites to check--mysubie.com, s2ki.com, the370z.com, rocketcitymustang.com, and huntsvillecarscene.com.

That should keep you busy whenever you have an ounce of free time.

K, I'll be there.

Saw you on the way to work this morning... Just realized it to late... haha.


So, what are your plans for the 5.0?

[Red__Zed]

That cruise looks awesome. We will have to get something going up that way soon

stock for now. Thinking Koni yellows, X pipe, FRPP mufflers, intake, tune. Should be ridiculously fast at that point...but other things are a priority over more money in the car...

Besides, it is fantastic right now. I got the brembos, 3.73 rear end, etc. Basically setup the way I want from the factory. It is just slightly underdamped and a little quiet for my taste.

If anyone is heading down to Z Nationals I'm heading out Friday morning, the 23rd. Plan to make it to Z1 about lunch time to get the pre track walk down done. If anyone wants to cruise along let me know!

[Red__Zed]

Ugh, wish I was going.



Who's in for the meet tonight?

[Parkerman]

Checked out the Pacman thread... I laughed.


Also, How do you like your GoPro? I've kinda wanted one, but not sure how much I would actually use it.
