my new 1:1 to mod...
 
...and the mods have already started, lol. the mailman just brought me a plenum spacer and CAI, and i've got test pipes on the way...and these shots are before i got the tints installed, too. heh.

i kept my xray truggy... i just need a powerplant and some lipos, and she'll be ripping soon. it may be a fall project though - i'm having too much fun with the new toy. :party:

thanks guys.

doug - i just got her about a month ago. i've always loved the z since the new redesign in '02, and i literally stumbled on this one. shopping for a different car after a lease ran out on my old one.

mambarustler: good thing you didn't buy one then. lol.

andrew: your pics almost brought tears to my eyes! this is my first sports car, and i just can't believe the power it has, and the handling is vette-like. it really lives up to it's history/heritage. but she still could go faster.... heh (that'll never change, no matter what the car). anyhow, i still can't wipe the grin off my face - until i saw your pics! what's the story??

i was 16 and stupid. thought i was cool. I was going around a turn, and down shifted from 6th to 4th but accidently whent from 6th to 2nd......:neutral::gasp: gear end kicked out and the car met curb, 3 trees and a fence.

like i said...i was a moron... but its ok, cuz this moron is now behind the wheel of a 0-60 in 2.6seconds monster:diablo::na:

Haha i can't wait for my for my license, I wanna get a 2006-2007 Subaru Impreza Wrx Sti In Blue :whistle: Am in love with that car. I better not show my parents the pics of your car and tell them how old you were if i want to drive at 16 :lol: What car you drive now? sounds like a mean machine.

bdebde 03.05.2009 09:37 PM

Very nice car, I love the Z cars. I used to have a 240 and a 260 back in the 80's. Doesn't look like quite the weather for a soft top though ,lol.

i'm guessing it has something to do with his avatar and signature... :whistle:

thanks bdebde... the soft top really is nowhere near as noisy or cold as i thought. not much worse than a hard top, to be honest. but the whole car won't touch snow or salt next winter.... gotta get a beater 4x4 truck.

As much as i want to disagree with you its the truth you are saying, I know what you mean and I won't be getting it that young first off my dad works with cars and he knows what that car is capable of. And mom is scared that I get into a car accident, so ill probably drive one of the family cars until I finish high school.

mkrusedc 03.05.2009 11:48 PM

Nice car Scott. You''ll enjoy in no doubt. My last sports car was a 1972 Vette. No I am old, married with a kid. Maybe one of these days...........?

Awesome wheels, man! Do you actually drive that in the snow??? :oh: My friend has a G35 and he can barely make it to work in a flurry! :rofl:
