Will do, although it'll probably be a while before I get around to it.

Those look good. I'm still trying to decide if I want to do all three or just the side vents.

Last few days have been spent working on removing my aluminum crash bar, modifying said bar to accommodate the larger Z1 intake filters, and replacing it. I accomplished the cutting work with a sawzall, a metal blade, and some tapping oil to keep cutting temps down and to keep the aluminum from binding to the blade (worked perfectly). Brought it into work where my coworker tig welded end caps on to keep it rigid (and repaired some of my over zealous cutting) and put it back on the vehicle. Not bad!

Wussy chicken.

I e-mailed John before I went on my cruise to hold my vents until I came back. Last night, I e-mailed him telling that I'm back in country and that he can ship mine now. He reply back saying they will be on their way.

It's not that I'm scared to cut my hood (ok, I actually am).

I save all my stock parts just in case I want to go back to stock. Even when I had my headlights modded I bought an extra set to do the mods on.
I'm pretty impressed with the vents, I think you'll like em.

I'm just squeezing your balls.

I save all of my stock parts that I take off in case I decide to do something else.

Updated the nav package today.

$350 for three years of updates. It's 5 DVDs of data and it takes about 2 hours of sitting in the car with the engine running to install...

The new software for the head unit seems less laggy when doing map things though, so there's that.

After getting some news about health 3 months ago and realizing we don't know how much time we have, I somehow got into the mindset that everything I wanted to do the car was going to get done in the next couple of months (within reason). Happy with the exterior 09-14 (Nismo conversion) except for maybe CF side splitters and CF winglets, interior has been converted to all Nismo (09-14). Suspension/wheels are done.

With that in mind decided to redo some things on the car for spring, go back for tests in February, hoping the news is good. Have a ARK Grip II cat back waiting to be put on to replace the current CNT exhaust. EPS 70mm TB's are on their way. Today found a set upper/lower manifold setup at a good price to be ported locally by a shop here. Also ordered a set of Speed Force headers, should be here by the beginning of the year. Going with Admin Tuning intakes to replace the current setup. Still have to decide on the cats and trying to coax a friend into letting me work on the car once I have all the parts.

Car's extended warrantee is up the beginning of March, already came in handy twice with CSC issues, my goal with a tune is 340whp, shall see...

I'm keeping you in my prayers Keith. Hang in there bud. You got a lot of living to do yet.
