Cool, i don't know what Pbucket's problem was yesterday.

Punk86 · 03-07-2013, 03:49 PM

Just as a heads up to anyone interested, IFO is this sunday at No Problem Raceway! I'm sure there will be quite a few other Zs and Gs out there.

I want to go but I don't think I'm going to have time.

I might take a drive out there... Not to far from mi casa.

Cool deal but i won't be making it. Evertime i go i always think i'm going to have a good time but never do. It's mostly the same stuff each time so it's a bit of old hat now.

I will be out there, but my car probably will not.

PaulZ370 · 03-09-2013, 12:39 PM

...just barely escaped a horrific rear ender with my Z. I feel SO lucky, but so Pee'd off at the same time. Either a young punk or a very young female driver in a BRAND NEW ACURA SUV with the Temp Plates still on... I look up checking my rear view as I am slowing down to make a right turn from the main street (Collins) onto my street, and I see this White Acura SUV accelerating like crazy towards me - about 50 yards away and closing the gap fast... I am in second gear about 10mph now, blinker on, brake lights + F1 Flashing Brake Light and this Dodo is not even checking up off the accelerator. I punch it and zip over to middle lane - at that speed and gear it feels like forever before the car responds and gets in the middle lane. The Acura's grill is filling my rear view fast and I can just almost sense the crash about to happen, the Z finally darts over to the middle lane, the SUV's nose gets squirly as he finally realizes that his/she is about to hit me hard - but passes my rear right quarter panel about a C** hair off... I sit in the middle lane screaming at him/her as the SUV passes me the driver is looking at me like the idiot he/she is... I cannot believe my luck - I don't know how I am still in one piece... That's it! The Z is in for the day... gotta settle my nerves...

Dude - all I could think of afterwards is how Effed up my weekend could have been after that... I was literally a millisecond away from my life taking a totally different track... After I pulled her into the garage, I kept going back and looking at the rear bumper... I just could not believe my luck - held up good for once...

Thanks for the concern Dave - Hope you can join us this weekend for our cruise and BBQ in Mississippi? The weather is supposed to be ideal...

I got hit by a drunk driver many years ago in a similar situation. It was 3 years before I was 100% again. My looked like it went through a crusher. Not fun. I'm just glad you made it out ok.

Anywho... gonna try to make it this weekend. My GF is headed over there for the weekend anyway so it would be awesome if I could make it. It depends on work. If they don't make me work again this weekend, I'll take the ride for sure.

PaulZ370 · 03-11-2013, 06:02 PM

Francis - not sure my text was clear - None of the other guys that have the FI systems have the box or the wrappings. The one guy who does have it is storing his stock exhaust in the box. So, could not find you an FI box for you to use.

KaienZ34 · 03-11-2013, 06:32 PM

Coo deal man i do appreciate the help.
