I'm in Crossroads, downtown, but when I am home I work all over town. I was at Oak Park a few weekends ago and saw two Zs out there, I'm guessing owners are members here.

Are there any Z events coming up in KC? I don't typically venture out South much, but would be happy to make the trek if there is a cruise night or something.. Let me know!

Also, Tower74, I'm pretty sure I've seen you're Z headed North on my way out of town headed South - pretty tough to miss!

I'm looking at moving to the Stillen exhaust for my Z - anyone have this on their Z? Recommendations or experiences with the Stillen would be much appreciated!

the stillen system sounds to close to stock, you'd be better off buying my s-tune exhaust!

Yeah if you come south you'll see a bunch. I think there's 3 of us who live within a mile from each other assuming Kraken and Edub are still in the same places. Welcome.
I took mine out for probably the first time in 10 days bc of all this damn rain and potential for hail. Luckily, I dodged the travel assignment my work is having in a month and I will stay here rather than be going to India for a month :)
guess I really need to get that oil cooler on now before it gets hot

Welcome! The first of Jackson's BBQ tour events is coming up next week.

it will be a mellow upgrade. but if you don't like a lot of sound or want something u can dd then this system may be a decent upgrade

yea i'm still in the same place. I think i saw your car running around on saturday. unless there's another 40th in this neck of the woods

more info on the bbq tour?

Looks like there is finally another member that is driving around a Gun Metallic on this forum in KC. Welcome!

welcome !

yeah... we (my dad and I) planning some casual bbq meets... first one is the 12th. nothing crazy just good food, little parking lot action, and cruise

Is all the info on the hazcc page?

ninja edit: just found it a couple pages back



this sounds like a good time. i think me and amber would like to come. what time were u thinking that everyone meet at johny's?

6pm.

also...I just barely scrape going in his lot. but there's huge Post Office lot right there that might be a better spot for us all to park.

I hear ya, mine has been parked for the past few days. I drive mine quite a bit, but we just picked up a Juke for the wife in GM as well, so now I have something else to drive in the rain. The Z is stayin' parked a bit more on inclement weather days.

Maybe - I test drove one with the Nismo Exchaust and I didn't mind it - I do drive mine to/from work a bit, so not looking for anything to extreme. If you're looking to sell your S-Tune, PM me a price - I'm not deadest on any particular exhaust yet, so open to other options.

Indeed! KC Proper even! I was picking up my sister at MCI (where my avatar came from, actually) and saw another Gun Metallic this weekend in the employee parking area, wasn't you was it?

I won't make the June event, but I just added it to my calendar and I will be there for July!

Nope that was not me. I do live in the Northland but wasn't at the airport with the Z. I have seen a Gun Metallic every now and then around North Kansas City area Armour 210 a few times now. Not sure if That was you?

Very well could be, I spend a good bit of time with a customer up in those parts.

I have a license relo-kit now, so that might be able to distinguish my GM 2012 from others out there.

Also swapped out for the GTR Start button this weekend. :happydance:

Nice, I hope you saw the updated thread on swapping out to the GTR button in less than 5 mins without tearing up the dash.

I will not be able to make the BBQ. I'll be in Iowa or Nebraska. This should be my last road trip for awhile since the local work is coming back. Plus the money I make on the road is SOOO much better. I will be back in 2 weeks or so I hope.

Alright so my usual guy who does my maintenance and mods is swamped with body work (his actual job)... any garage or person you guys would personally recommend? Just trying to get the oil cooler & cats on and swap out brake pads... for now

Doing that this weekend? I need to get my intakes installed asap. And I was gonna do cat's but im not getting the car tuned till next year

As long as the demon bolt isnt seized up on the cat then those shouldn't be too bad. me and a buddy did my oil cooler in about 2 hours a few weekends ago. don't be afraid to hop in there and take her all apart


theres a good diy on the front end removal on here that digitonium did a while back. takes about 15 min to get it off. nothing too crazy involved

Used this awhile back for headlights.

^ Thanks for that, wasn't sure if was the same procedure as 350. I think ima help him this weekend, starting with intakes....

why don't we all get together and do a little DIY day on Sunday or Saturday Or Something

If that happened on a Sat I would totally be down. Problem for me is I have no garage or tools to do stuff. Back when I lived with my parents I had access to all the good stuff and did everything myself on my Acura except the ECU tune

I have a collection of all tools needed for anything we're trying. Tho only have single driveway. Making it tough to work on more than two at a time. ( tho my street is very safe as far as parking, might even be able to convince neighbor to let us borrow her driveway.

He was thinking bout coming to my house Saturday @noon.

I'm open, but if someone has better set up let me know....

Yea if sat is a good day for you. we are going at it at noon at jacksons. you and ethan can join. ill bring beer lol

I'm open at my house as well got a 3 car wide driveway plus a garage, but probably only have half the amount of tools that jackson does as my Z is the first car ive started to work on. On the downside i live all the way up north KC which i know might be far for you guys. But id def be down to join up on a DIY day anywhere, throwing on my intakes was fun and would love to help out others.

I need to still throw on my swifts this weekend as well.

Sounds like it might be a good time. Nothing better than shooting the sh!t while working on a car. I watched the bumper process and it is pretty easy. You just have a lot of screws and pins to pop out. Worse car for replacing headlights I've owned. The Volvo C30 was extremely easy on the other end of the spectrum.

if it goes down saturday then i may be out... turns out "I" had plans and forgot about them... lol

That sounds good. you could install your springs. my intakes seems to have the same install as the SG 3 intakes. Looks like 3 cars are in the mix. So lets come up with a final time and place for who is down? I'm open and down for whatever. right now me and Jackson are aiming for 12:30ish at his place tomorrow. don't wanna leave anyone out that wants to join so lets us know what works for you guys. its gonna rain sat night and sunday fyi

So what is the final plan. We all meeting up at Jacksons place? If so, Can someone PM me the address to his place? Otherwise if you guys were wanting to meet at my place ill send out my address. Just let me know the final plan.

Ya come over... Nothing fancy going on really. But stop by if you want.

Text me for address... 913-593-6352.

Good deal, see you guys around 12:30, finally get my springs on too!

Had fun yesterday ... Tho it did take 3 guys 3 hours to put on an air intake

Sorry that I went m.i.a. and couldn't join u guys but my gf did some damage in a construction zone and I had to go rescue her. Ended up looking at new cars and driving a couple to kill the afternoon while we waited for the dealer to work us in on her car. I'm probably just going to take my Z to my parents next weekend to try and pop on this stuff. That way if I dont finish at least its in pieces in a locked garage rather than a carport

Woulda been more like 2 hours if the intakes came with the right clamps

soo i have 370 fever again....

u guys are bad influence on my bank account :shakes head:

Jackson/Michael

Where are the pics at from the install we did??? :)

left camera at home.. getm tomorrow.

370Z vs. Lambo
 

Enjoy the Ride!!
370Z Tries To Hang With Aventador In David Vs. Goliath Track Video

Not bad considering there is a 1,000%+ price tag difference

lol yea. but I was really impressed. you guys know your way around a car. everytime a problem sprung up you guys had a answer. Ha that's why I didn't wanna do it alone lol. You guys rule thank you

bare with me as I definitely should have adjusted camera before shooting away...
