:hello: Hello sir!







Patiently waiting to hear back from the Z1 guys about maybe getting a discount. :p

What is with people that don't care ? I have to move my cars if the gardener comes, they just weed wack and blow crap all over the car.

One time with the 350Z, I walked out and heard ting, ting, ting, as the crap was peppering the paint..

:mad::mad::mad:

The cars are now in the garage under covers...

Bird are one thing, but rocks and things thrown into your car is just :mad::mad:

And thanks for the good luck .. But remember, Luck is the meeting of preparation and opportunity...The opportunity may present itself , just like it did in 2008, and I am getting prepared for it...

I'm with you on the bird thing. The old lady living behind us likes to feed the birds... Drives me nuts! They crap everywhere :shakes head: ... I'm asking for a sling shot for fathers day this year.

Hi Pint :hello:

Z1 :yum:

Don't get me started... People have no respect, they have no manners... :shakes head:

Zl-1..:yum::yum:

But obviously, I won't be buying one..I will be tapped out..

But I hope you get to get it and beat the snot out of it...:tup:

Somebody has to, and it ain't me.

Nothing fancy, I'm afraid. :(




Anyone else getting new toys?

Canon 60D probably.

:happydance:

:icon18: blahahha!!!

i remember when i was a kid i saw 2 birds on a branch sitting next to each other so i took my brand new toy sling shot and watever rocks i could find in the area and shot and shot and shot and i kept missing... at first the birds were looking over like wtf is with this kid? but then after about 10mins of me missing, they both fell asleep! :bowrofl: you mofo birds! :rofl2:


you didn't see my post? i got a tube of white putty. :wtf2:

woooo~~! :tup:

me looking at gopro hero2's right now. im still stuck on how to mount it on the headrest brackets... :ugh2:

I would mount it on the cross bar but that's just me. You're a smart guy, ken. You can figure it out. :)

yah, i was thinking that too (not the smart guy ken part btw), actually. :tup: but would that have enough height though?

I have a front lip showing up Thursday, and 3/4 of an Amuse kit coming sometime...

Do it! :tup:

:icon18: that was hilarious. :bowrofl:

I read that someone used the suction cup mount on the rear window with the camera facing forward...

:tup: Congrats lol.

Amuse?! :yum::yum::yum:

this is from 11 hours of driving.


:o

^^ .. that must've been awesome.. i cant wait to go back to mainland and take mine to long trips !!!!!! :D

do it!
Not so awesome when I just had the whole thing detailed a week ago.. now rain all this week. :shakes head:

Mr.kenchan, looks like that 370z need Swifts&Koni drop badly!!! :bowrofl:

R/C Racing.... :yum: :yum:

Speaking of R/C, I found out they have this new 'trend' nowadays:



Completely different than the old days on-road sedan, but very interesting.. :tup:

Please go for it!! :yum: :yum:


hey dude, is your Z entering its teenage phase?? Got acne all over the chin and face.... :icon14: :icon14:
:bowrofl:


Finished 2 hrs of tennis after work, then had a 90 mins night drive around the downtown area, 20c light breeze with the top down windows-down, on the way home I took a road which has some easy bends and corners, little traffic lights, cruise at average 75km/h, what a treat to myself, all the stress from the day are now gone.... :tup: :tup:

Ken, when i mount it inside the car I just stick the suction cup to the rear window. It will pretty much give you the shot you are looking for. When I mount there you can see most of the cockpit and out the windshield.

Here is a vid from ZDAYZ I just got uploaded. The first section is Hwy28 (prob my fav road there) Once I come to the second stop sign I make a left. If I were to make a right thats the Tail of the Dragon right there.

Cool video Ryan.

Good morning everyone. :hello:

Great video, Mr. Alchemy.

Howdy everyone. :tiphat:

Morning guys. What a bad start to the day.

I get up thinking I'll drive the S2000 to work since the 5.0 is still decked out in ZDayZ stickers. I go to grab the S2K keys as I walk out the door... they aren't there! How could this be???

Then I remember I left the S2000 at my parents' house when I picked up the 5.0. Ugh. So I have to drive the 5.0 now. I go outside with a plan to quickly peel off the MAZOC decals on the side... No, these won't go quick. They stick and leave residue and tear and just don't want to come off. DAMN!

I waste about 10 minutes pulling the driver side decal off leaving gobs of nasty residue behind. I decide I don't have enough time to remove the passenger side decal so I just hop in the car... EWWW what stinks?!!! Did Dan really poop in my seat when we went for a slide?

Nah, it's musty microfiber towels that were left in the back seat. Ick. I pick them up and throw them in the trunk... windows down now to get rid of the stank.

Fire the car up... WHAT! Low fuel?! Damnit. Wasting even more time I have to run over to the gas station and fill up. :facepalm:

Now I'm at work... where I'll be for the next 12 hours. :mad:

yes.


yes, I did.

What can I say? Should have bought a 370z. This particular set of events never happens to me, and I own a Z. :icon17:

Sorry to hear about rough sticker removal Steve. At least we can attest that they are durable.

Thanks for the props on the vid guys:tiphat:

I'm pretty sure it's my fault for not doing it right. But yes, they are durable and high quality. Nice 7-year outdoor vinyl I believe.

:roflpuke2:

Ryan, nice video and great sounding Z!


Steve, where are the pictures from this near epic death experience?


Good morning to all you guys! :yawn:

Thanks Tracie:hello:

morning everyone, finally checking in this am! :hello:

hi mr.gale- i found your post this am... i must have missed it last night.

hummm... i use leather care and it smells pretty leathery and manly (in a good way, not greasy loser-dood stink) but it goes away in like 2 days.

im not really into super fruity smell. my eyes get watery, reminds me of urinal fresheners or toilet cleaners. like when i eat lime jello, it reminds me of toilet cleaners. :icon17: yuk (not that im saying your car must smell like a toilet or anything. :D hahaha!).

yah, that was alchemy. :) im not into suction cups... if i can find another solution.

gmorning and thanks, pint. :tup: i will make sure to post up :pics: of the tube of putty for you when i get it in-house. :rofl2: i will post a before and after pict of my bumper ding repair. it's hugegangeous... 2mm in diameter. :eek: :crying: hahha. it's deep more than anything. this is why i need the putty. i think i can fit a sesame seed in that huge crater. :icon14:

yah, i hate birds though. :shakes head: penguins are cool. :tup: all other birds meh., unless edible.

gmorning, mr. alcheng! :tup: yah, it appears everyone's into drifting now for rc. i too was into touring car sedans, raced them every weekend. i still have a few old chassis in my basement. not sure which ones are good these days.

i was hoping to get that cupracer 240Z but they're gone... :ugh2: i cant seem to find one, and after a long search i got tired of getting one. lol :icon17:

thanks, alchemy. :tup: yah, worst case i will do this. i just dont like suction cups in the car. even the V1 on the windshield, the ONLY reason why im using suction cups instead of blendmount is the Z does not have good visibility. would like to stay away from suction cups all together if at all possible.

doh, that does sound like a rough start. :icon14: hope your work is kind to you today to allievate the stress. :hello:



hey i like your STI in your sig. :tup:

Hey everyone!

Ryan, great video! I always wondered, are there a lot of cops patrolling those roads?

Really depends on the time and time of day. During the week, especially in the mornings, it's fairly light. But come Friday-Sunday it's generally busy with patrols. You just have to be careful. It's all part of the game. Sooner or later you'll get busted -- just make sure it's only for speeding (and nothing crazy). If you touch or go over the double yellow line it's a $500 fine.

Also depends on the cops. In 2011 they were basically very lenient with speeders but were cracking down on people crossing the double yellow.

They know they have to strike a balance between keeping the road fun, but also keeping it somewhat sane. Tighten your grip too much and the area loses revenue. Loosen your grip too much and all hell breaks loose!

Well, I got a ticket for about 40mph over so Id say yes:ugh2:


Ken, why the beef with suction cups?!?!

Funny cause as I was gettin pulled over the biker behind the biker that was behind me passed him on the double yellow right in front of the cops!!! I was like "you're pullin me over :icon14:"

I mean, you can do the speed limit pretty much the whole way and still enjoy yourself. You won't have much fun on the straights, but many of the 318 corners demand lower speeds, so if the road is being heavily patrolled, you can still get your G-forces fix in the corners.
