Hmm you got a diet coke and a new highlighter. :tup:

:roflpuke2:

yeah when i saw orange i had to have it LOL

Just my thoughts on the earlier posts, If you are going FI in these cars at all you will need some great suspension work and some wide tires because traction will be a serious issue... Im talking 315 or wider rear tires....

^This. Tony from fast intentions said that dialing in the suspension, wheel and tire setup is more important than anything with this car when it comes to forced induction. That's where you'll see it really come alive.

Immature kids and ricers out in full force tonight for the Paul Walker memorial cruise. Saw there was a 350z with fast and furious stickers that crashed. Theres also a bunch of idiots posting pictures doing 100mph on facebook. What a cluster. Glad my Z is home and safe, not that I'd join anyways.

Had to be a Z :shakes head:

Yep I heard the same thing, it's tough to make a meet with several thousands cars and have everyone behave though.

That's all...

Am I looking at something here? or this a tease :icon17:

Nah... I've got some pics in my journal of the progress. Put in tha CAI and oil cooler yesterday. Was just working on it in the garage and snapped a few pics with the new camera. :)

:tup: on new parts. Its always :excited:

I may have missed it, which size oil cooler you go with?

I took advantage of the Z1 Black Friday free upgrade and went with a 25 row Seatrab, thermostatic kit.

That was a good deal :tup:

and I think it's a good choice size wise.

Agreed! I have the 25 row... and figured that any more than 25 would be counter-productive to street-driven vehicles. Case in point, i have blocked mine off for winter driving.

P.S. Happy Friday the 13th... ooooOOOOoooo

Yeah good choice. I honestly think even 19 would be ok for street driving/autoX/limited track use.

I got the 25 and thermostatic plate. Figured that would be good for anything I do with the car. I only drive it in the summer anyway, but I don't think you'd have to block it off if it's thermostatic.

If temps dip below 40 when you drive, then you may have to fab a block off plate. Otherwise, it will take a while for the oil temps to warm up to a safe temperature. During summer you shouldn't have issues.

Man i got issues no matter what time of the year it is... :shakes head:

It shouldn't even go through the cooler unless it gets hot enough first. What am I missing here?

The thermostat plate doesn't block flow completely. It closes about 80% so oil cooler is still cooling the oil.

Hibernation :tup:

dreaming of turbo power…..must achieve maximum coolness!!

*Pokes hibernating bear*

:icon17::icon17:


Got a couple of things going! :tiphat: Shoould have pics in a few weeks.

btw Sean, I'm loving the new camera! Trying to learn more about using it. Time is stretched a little thin right now. But even the auto mode takes incredible pics! LOL:tup:

I'm ready for summer. Normally I can put up with this crap until January, but not this year. If only the wife would agree to relocate :(

been trying the same thing for years

Maybe mine will give into my complaining.....probably not though.

I told her that instead of buying a winter car we should just move and I can drive the Z year round

sean made it to coffee today. a bit sideways but he made it!

Get that car inside a garage!

I am in champaign till teus and haven't seen anything but 2 350s near the university. I guess cause it's cold here. I fly back through Chicago again Tuesday. I'll be sure to wave!

Anyone planning on going to zdayz 2014? I am, would be fun to have a couple people to caravan with.

I have a turbo and am still trying to achieve maximum coolness.

Maximum Coolness has arrived... this Monday in fact...

thank al gore for global warming!

I am considering it. The only problem is the main part of the resort where the cabins are is booked up with a waiting list that's long as well. I'm not sure about the lodge.

If we could get 4-8 people from Chicago dedicated, then we could plan something officially.

Oh, booked already? I think my buddy my come along as well, he's always wanted to drive the tail. Looks like there's a Marriott Courtyard about 27miles away in Knoxville TN. I may just book a room and use some Marriott points if the resort is full.

I haven't booked anything, but have thought a lot about it.
