I've driven my Z for a total of 30 minutes in the past week. And I'll not get any more seat time til at least Tuesday. Working for a living SUCKS!!

I need to hit the lottery. :D

Plural? You going to make a double stacked lip? Maybe put a tongue in the middle.

Do it! If I were to do it again I'd find a lift and drop the engine. It would make the process much easier.

A friend of mine is building a garage with a lift so I'll be all set when it comes time to put the stroker motor in. :D

Thanks for the heads up! I was leaning that way myself. I have a friend with a lift in his garage as well. He manages a shop that does all the work on my non-toy cars, like brakes for my kids. He and his son just built an insane drag car (I won't say what it is but it's initials are M****ng). I was thinking I could talk him into helping me out when I get ready. Probably won't be until next fall. I have a couple of things I want to do to the Z32TT first.

yah, i will definitely be working on my camera this weekend! :tup: if it rains i will take snaps of my garage. if it's nice out i will first do my Z's picts followed by my G's picts.

i made folders on the SD card like this:
M_UV (manual mode UV filter only)
M_CLP (manual mode UV + circular polarizer) not sure if i will use this time
AP_UV (apeture priority mode UV filter only)
AP_CLP .. and so on. :p

for garage shots i think im going to do shutter priority and use a tripod, no flash. :p maybe some close ups using manual and 55mm F5.6.... i need another lens with smaller apeture to do closeups...

also going to see if i can stop by bestbuy and check out the macbook pro's... i think i5 should do it for me... although wife insists i get i7... :rolleyes: :icon17:

Emptied out my trunk and took off the cargo area cover to rule out those items as the source of the noises I'm hearing.
