Damn, I love the 40th!

Love it!

Just got back form Forged from installing my OS Giken LSD. Stay tuned for my review tomorrow. For I'll need more time with the diff to give a more honest review along with my review of Forged.

Why not buy an Altima or Maxima 3.5SE. That way you can have sporty performance and a back seat. I traded my '07 Altima 3.5 SE for the Z. It had plenty of power for sure and was loaded with all the extras and I didn't have to shift it. It was a beautiful car but was dull and boring to drive. If you enjoy an automatic Z, that's all that matters. Let ME take a guess and at the risk of sounding sexist, you're married and the only way your wife can justify you making the purchase is if she can drive it too, i.e automatic. Just a hunch!

hahaha, well, it's good to be young at heart.

i am married, i have 2 kids, my wife does not drive MT, she does not go to my cars' bedroom (aka garage). all 3 of my cars are MT. the dd she drives is in my name, not that she can't afford her own car, and it's the only AT i have. she's not a car person so has no interest in driving my Z.

been wondering. I think I should get my stillen gen 3 CAI's filters cleaned? how am I supposed to clean them?

RandyD · 04-12-2011, 05:58 PM

today, pulled up next to a guy in a big tree service truck with the top down.. he leaned out the window and said 'that's sick!'...

kenchan · 04-12-2011, 06:16 PM

Vegitto how many miles on them? I usually clean every 15k miles or so. You need to remove your bumper and remove the cones, follow the simple directions on the cleaning kit.

Very nice. You are making me miss mine. Oh well, 2 more days and I will ba home.

Pulled out from under the carport into the drizzle left from a thunderstorm, rinsing off most of the pollen...yellow and red make...yech!
A quick zip up I-185 and I-85 at speed, then into work and then home with a fresh coat of pollen.
