sweeet, i may join in on that convoy depending on when you leave. i'm still not sure when i'm going to leave or any of the logistics, though i do have a bed with some bama cru ppl (i would say "thankfully" right after that but only time will tell if that's true haha :P). i will probably leave thursday after work but still not sure yet

Mods: Too many to list...... but not nearly enough


^^ ain't that the truth, HKY!! I got all mine squeezed in but I could so keep getting more! :icon17:

HKYStormFront 01-25-2010 06:08 PM

haha well yea, i've got quite a bit of stuff done to my truck, some of it custom, that makes me enjoy it the way it is (such as a full stereo replacement with custom sub) and a custom true dual setup, which is fine for now. maybe down the road though, once it's no longer my daily it may get a V8 swap and get dropped on it's nutz w/ custom 5 link rear. i've thought about doing a "titan swap" up front (swap my frontier arms for titan ones, they are bolt in and 8" wider) and a titan rear axle w/ custom glass fenders and then drop it low. it'd be low and super wide... that'd take a lot of doing tho. i may just buy a project vehicle instead, either a z33 or a last bodystyle s14 later

Dustin@Z1 01-25-2010 10:01 PM

Lol, now which vehicle do I list under my sig....
a. My '92 NA 300zx that I have invested all my time and energy into
b. My '92 TT 300zx that I havent done ANYTHING to.
c. My '06 Dodge Ram 2500 Cummins Diesel with a crap load of mods

The same will go for Z Conn in Nashville this year. We will set the departure times from here closer to event time. And of course...anyone/everyone is welcome to join. (We will have a number of the S-Chassis guys this year too)

I don't think anyone has ever beaten the caravan I was in at the 2005 Zdayz. I rolled in with 20 or 21 Z's.

HKYStormFront 01-26-2010 08:03 AM

how many cars were in the convoy from the hotel to the track day at ZNat's this year? 60ish? all doing 110+mph the whole way... ya that was crazy:driving: all those z's, g's, and GTR's followed... by a truck :tup:

Sharif@Forged 01-26-2010 12:32 PM

Dustin the Z1 caravan and the Forged caravan should intersect. We will blow that record out of the water I reckon. :).

TipsZ 01-26-2010 01:39 PM

I finally registered. Everyone will get a chance to see Mike the Powdercoater's work first hand, as I am shipping my calipers and strut bar to him this up coming Monday. Now I just need to secure lodging .....

:happydance: It was one of my better vacations. I'm all about getting together with other Z fans.

Last April, I hosted our Z club's Spring meet at my house. We had 24 Z's parked along the street next to my house. It was awesome.

Who would be interested in having the whole meet filmed in blue ray quality? I am looking to have a RED ONE camera in the next month or two and will be going to the event. might as well bring along the camera and some gear. Basically I will film in 4 x HD quality and down grade it to blue-ray and any other format you guys would want. I can sell the DVD's and Blue Rays for my cost to film everything and produce the DVD/BR Disks... anyone interested?

How about I take you for a ride while you film? Get a different perspective. I'd love to see something like that.

bullitt5897 01-30-2010 02:47 PM

The go pro's are awesome but I will probably be bringing my Smarty cam so I can test out the data acquisition overlays on the video ;) and its 720p! Sharif I need to get you guys to try some out for the track. Its sweet cause it plugs right into your OBDII port to pull all the data!!! so it can go on any car!
