I would be willing to host one of those if anyone would be interested in coming out Katy way.

I could get 6 in the driveway (counting the garage) and another 3 or 4 on the front street.
We have done that, let me talk to a couple people and see if another one is coming up any time soon.

Got some things ordered for my car today. Having JTran do the work. Here is my list:
Eibach Pro Kit - Springs
Stillen Generation 3 Long Tube Cold Air Intakes Polished!
H&R Wheel Spacer 15MM
H&R Wheel Spacer 20MM

Will be powder coating the G3 Tubes and am struggling with what color. Either red (smooth) or Nissan Magnetic Black to match the exterior. Have any of you seen both? I know Bryan has red and I kind of like that although his is the wrinkle finish.

Also picked up the Nismo Titanium shift knob. Open "o"

I'll be in Houston on Friday, but unfortunately not in the z Lmk if you guys do a bar meet though


Any recommendations for a good place to eat? Nothing super fancy, but something different that I wouldn't find in San Antonio...

I'm gonna hit up the Texans game on Sat. I'll be staying near the Galleria, but I'm open to anywhere. I haven't been to Houston for about 8 years so I just want a relaxing mini getaway trip

To eat in that area Id recommend BBQ: Goode Comapny BarBQ on Kirby, Greek: Niko Niko's on Montrose, Mexican: 100% Taquito on Edloe, Tai: Tai Cottage on Weslayan, Chinese: Qin Dynasty on Buffalo Speedway, Pho: Les Givral on Washington

Also there is a drift event all day Sunday at Gulf Greyhound Park. Stop by if you have time!

I won't give u Mexican recommendations because u have plenty of that in sa. For a decent burger try pappas burger, its right in the galleria area. There is an affordable sushi joint that has pretty decent cuts called oishi , its at Richmond and timmons. for Asian ur best bet is to make a small drive to the bellaire and the beltway area. One of my personal favorites is house of bowls, its at corporate and bellaire. I'll give u one more, the raven grill on bissonet in the west u area is a nice little spot.
Wish I was gonna be in town and we would set up a meet but i'm headed out of town this weekend. Hope to catch u next time and I'll see u at the twisted sisters run.
