Okaaaaay this was an odd morning. Driving into work coming through on Nimitz, got passed by a black and a white (with Cali plates) 370Z. Think this is the most 370Z's I have seen in one place besides the dealership. :tup:

definitionxmk 01-30-2012 04:04 PM

I think I saw that car too... didn't see the plates though.

XLR8SN 01-30-2012 08:25 PM

I know of a blue 350Z that always seems to see you coming out of Hickam area.

LOL...kinda hard not to miss a yellow one. :tup:

definitionxmk 01-30-2012 11:51 PM

^yeah, tell me about it... i cringe every time i take her out. It's time to register the car tomorrow w/ Hawaii plates =(

... but I need the Hawaii plates for CA to be smog exempt =)

Wow! I only got signed up for this place now! What's up 370 guys? Haven't seen much of you out at the VQ Meets?

Darryl79 02-10-2012 04:42 AM

I just got orders to Pearl Harbor. I should be out there middle of June sometime. I drive a monterey blue base coupe. I'll have Guam plates, so if you see me, wave!

I'd definitely be interested in getting together for the meets. Here in Guam, quite a few guys have 370z, not many older guys per-se.

I can't wait to get to Hawaii though. I have many questions on where to live and hang out and all that. That's to follow later.

XLR8SN 02-10-2012 02:23 PM

Well...the cost to fly to Japan and the East for you just quadrupled. But on the bright side...instead of it taking you 1 hour to go around the island...it now will take you 3. :tup: Kidding...ish.

Anyhow best of luck in the move. Dont modify your car much from now till June though. The recon issues here can be a little rough versus Guam.

definitionxmk 02-24-2012 04:26 PM

^Check out VQinc for some local Z/G guys cruising around: VQ I.N.C. | Facebook

Saw a lot of Zs recently... where yall at?

BajaZ 02-25-2012 01:18 PM

^ i've been busy with work lately.. so really not doing much. I went there because of two of my buddies wanted to hang out and it turn out to be alright. but they drive a DEL SOL and a ECLIPSE

MrJester 02-26-2012 01:46 PM

Well I will be out there in a few months looking forward to getting together with other Z owners. BTW I have a 2010 370z Convertible.

I am getting stationed at Pearl Harbor towards the end of the year, I did see local tuner shops mention which is good. What I would like to know is if there are any authorized race locations. I'd love to get into autocross but haven't seen anything available. A nice road coarse would be optimal but even a coned out coarse would be fine.

definitionxmk 04-08-2012 11:17 PM

No road course but there is autocross at the stadium. Just google SCCA Aloha Stadium and I'm sure it will point you to the right direction... other than that, not much "real" racing courses. There are talks of a new track... but it's all just talk. For now.

definitionxmk 04-22-2012 06:26 AM

Good stuff. Hit up the facebook VQ I.N.C. for a lot of the happenings.

definitionxmk 04-22-2012 06:27 AM

I am going to guess that more of the 350Z guys will probably head to this one versus the 370Z's. Maybe Definitionxmk might be going guessing since he follows the scene more than other here.

definitionxmk 06-04-2012 03:01 PM

Someone backed into my Z and just left =(

Hit and run.

Ahhhhhhhhhhhh x_x'

Ooohhh...that sucks. Sorry to hear. Hope that it can be repaired "easily".

I can share the pain since mine got egged twice.

Hang in there.

definitionxmk 06-07-2012 03:54 PM

wow, egged? that sucks =(

Yeah, I'm just waiting on my insurance to give me the funds to pay the body shop. I'll post up the pics later when I get home.

XLR8SN 06-07-2012 07:11 PM

I am sure that it will be fine after everything is said and done. Hang in there.

..damn .. i cant imagine..! hope it gets fixed..

i am going to japan tomorrow ! . . my car will be parked for a while .

chrischhorn 06-11-2012 05:27 PM

Hey guys, was wondering how strict hawaii's emissions tests are. I may be movin out to oahu here in a little bit and ive got i/e/hfc and wonderin if they actually smog test it or look for hfcs. In texas, they only smog if the car obd1 or older.

XLR8SN 06-11-2012 09:01 PM

There are no smog tests currently. Though if you are too too loud, you will run a risk of getting pulled over.

chrischhorn 06-11-2012 10:44 PM

Ive passed many cars out here that are louder then my car so im not worried about that. Ive been out here on vacation for the past 10 days in the mililani area.

definitionxmk 06-24-2012 09:01 PM

Worked on the Z today... damn it feels good to work on her again =)

I had fluttering issues with my bypass valve for my supercharger and took today to fix it. She sounds like a champ again =)

Also, I'll be taking my baby to the bodyshop this following week for repairs from the hit and run =(

Lastly, I see we have some new Z owners here in Hawaii. Does a possible meet and greet, 370z style, sound good? Zmaster is off to japan so he'll be missing out. 350z/vqinc guys are out here but some of those guys are crazy (literally, haha).

BajaZ 06-25-2012 04:18 AM

^^ it always happens to me ! lol .. but once i get back ill have time to work on it, and hopefully put new exhaust, paint calippers, and im looking for the lip for my wing !! hope you guys have a good one !!

definitionxmk 06-25-2012 02:53 PM

you mean the wing like Mines? (pun intended, hah)

XLR8SN 06-29-2012 01:12 PM

Did anyone go to the "mini" meet at Pearlridge? Was picking up dinner and saw a bunch of 350Z's...was on the phone (via earpiece) and was watching traffic so I didnt say hi or anything...sorry....
