He didn't find it! I found it last year and he asked me where I got it at our local car show! :rolleyes:
I also have the Sickspeed plate bolts from last year. Boyah!

You know, I wish Cobb still made post MAF tubes for our Zs. :(. I wonder why they stopped making them?

They decided not to make any parts for FI vehicles. They chose to 100% dedicate themselves to FI. It sucks for me because COBB is 30min away from me in Plano Tx. Now I have no tuner for at least 4 hours from me.

ya cobb really let the auto Z community down by going strictly FI... i get the fact that they are about 10x easier to make power out of, bu they should have taken into account that there are probably 100 Z's to every 1 GTR on the road...

cobb could probably have doubled its profits by sticking with the z's. sure, the margins would be smaller from the R&D it takes to pump power out of NA motors, but they would probably outsell GTR tune's 10 to 1... c'mon cobb, you gotta have more business sense than that...IMHO that is a good way to get a company going in the wrong direction.

I'm sure i can speak for many people in here when i say that if cobb were still available for our cars i would be picking on up over an uprev....

Not sure if you would call it a mod but its still a good idea to do is to get and it doesn't break the bank! Most people over look it but get a magnetic oil pan drain bolt and a filter magnet....Bougut mine over the winter just waiting to put them in when the car comes out of storage and get the first oil change in!:driving:

happytheman 01-17-2012 06:47 AM

Yes! That's a fantastic and cheap mod! :tup:

can you post pics of the bolts in your engine bay? i am hesitant about the name just bc it's kind of tacky, but they're a fraction of the cost of the pwjdm bolts.

what about a used radar detector? passport 8500x50 usually goes for 140 on craigslist :)
