Look at the stats as of now 3:56 PT

Maybe it seems like a dying breed, but only true enthusiasts will keep forums alive. I just can't take FB serious.. way too many dumb questions from lazy people who refuse to google and it's all just a cluster of questions/posts.

Forums will be kept alive by true enthusiast and keep the kids with the 24" rims out.

I just wish that more people came to the forum to give me advice on the Rockstar truck wheels I want for my Z. Bonus points for what camber I have to run to fit the 24's!

Just my two cents....

This forum SAVED me from walking down a path I am thankful I did not.....

I was in a F*cking Subaru dealership about to grab a '17 STI Limited....


But the NISMO,,,, and you lovely folks.... saved me <3


I love you all.

Sincerely,
A 29 year old ******* from Boston

seemed like a few years ago there'd be new relevant posts and what not, now besides a handful of posters its pretty much dead.

I know there are 370 owners out there, the cars just suddenly didn't vaporize.
because you aren't a premium member

if you were, you would see that the forum is alive and well

Yea, its dead...so what?
I owned a Hellcat and that place was really active all the time with problems, and supercharger melt downs and new stupid modifications. This car is reliable so no drama all we have is a silly 2k fix CSC...that is really no big deal compared to the performance cars I have had - so I am loving it. Plus this car is easy as hell to work on, service manual is available for download, and old threads basically are all you need making the forum still a great resource. ... Let me ad that I have owned tons of cars in my life and this one is my favorite from all aspects ... all those idiots who moved on or so called "upgraded" no they didn't. Until you own the options - you will want them, but once you have you wont....

The site may not be quite as active as it once was but, as mentioned above, it's an eight year old model (with only very minor changes through the years) and most of the problems have been thoroughly discussed. It is far from being dead, though. Still one of my favorite places on the Web and I haven't owned a Z in several years.

I've been a member for less than a year so I can't really speak on what this forum may have been in the past, but in that brief time it has been an extremely valuable resource to me. I check in on a daily basis and try to contribute as much as often as I can. Perhaps things aren't what they once we're but complaining never solved anything either.

Hahaha. I'm glad I am not the only one that despises the Facebook group. Full of noobs who have never worked on a car themselves. Every other day there are posts about "Has anyone used spacers before?" or "Has anyone wrapped their roof?" Literally, no one knows how to use Google and no one believes-in their own opinion; everyone asks "what wheels should I get?" or "What exhaust should I get?" Seriously...do your own research and pick what you like. The only reason I stay in it is because of the occasional cool car pictures :/

From my experience the fakers die in winter like bugs. Too cold. Then in spring the hardy that survive come back. Less and less each year. Oh well.

I hate Facebook and I can't stand Twitter. Who ever said anything of any value in fewer than 140 chara
