Jesus, didn't know it was that bad. Holey Cow.

We could time it to coincide with an hpde track event there so if folks wanted to track their cars they could or go at least spectate...

Seb likes the oem but they're over $400 a pair. I can get the Z1 poly for a little over $200 a pair

Th3 only bright side is at least there’s a twin turbo at the end of the tunnel now.
Fixed that for you too

In our last nismo z, wifey and I ran z1 poly trans and motor mounts, it wasn’t bad at all, then again, we had full spl suspension as well so the trans and motor mounts were the most compliant part of the car.

I was going through some of my dad’s papers and among them was a letter from his grandmother ( my great grandmother ) dated 1944. In it she explains that she wasn’t able to write him for a while because she had run out of writing paper and wasn’t able to find any because, of ww2 and things just weren’t available.
She goes on to say that she’s including a dime and wants him to share it with his younger brother

Boy has the world ever changed

Ever since I had to put out $9 grand for the motor. We been thinking on dumping it. It's been a lot of sleepless nights. Decided about 2 weeks ago to let it go. I been sleeping fine ever since. Once it goes to auction and what the bank decides. Then I'll decide on what I want to do.
