my new 1:1 to mod...

[ClodMaxx]

...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.

[Takedown]

Very nice.

[RCShocker]

Nice ride for sure Scott

How long have you had it?

Once you go black.....................

[mambarustler]

Nice, but i never liked the 350z convertile. Still a nice car.

nice nice. just beware....them thangs are very butt heavy.....trust me i know

[ClodMaxx]

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...... 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

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

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.

[bdebde]

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.

[mkrusedc]

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...........?

thanks, man - i'm hoping this winter was the last time i drove her in the snow. it's been a while since i drove a rear-wheel drive car. she does better than i expected though - surprisingly, as well as my last car - which was a front wheel drive G6! that thing was HORRIBLE in the snow. made no sense, but it was true.

that sounds about right - i'll have to dig my sticker out to be sure. those numbers fly out the window with my lead foot though... heh.
