Got the Z back on Thursday, and I'm very happy with the look of the 10mm spacers on the rear. Baker Tuning did an excellent job re-painting the front bumper and replacing the various damaged parts. The car looks brand new again. See picture below.

I get to park the Z this week as Mrs. Gurney is on a girl trip to La Jolla, so I get to power through Houston in her MDX. I'm still seriously thinking about getting either a daily driver for me; i.e. Honda Fit, or buying the Mrs. a new CR-V and keeping the MDX for myself (more likely scenario). Driving around downtown Houston in the Z can be nightmarish sometimes; some of the streets look like a mortar field.

Have a great day guys.
Damn! Yer Z is looking :yum: Gurney! Sooo sexy! I really love the tow hook. Been thinking about getting one myself. I think the OEM one, while functional, looks :icon14:

Well guys, gotta roll to work. I'll try to keep up so I don't have 10 pages to read!
Laters! :hello:

Ok, so as pre-celebration we'll only drink half the scotch, and only smoke half the cigar now, and save the rest for the real celebration later. :tup:

Ran my Z to the dealership, getting my fuel senders replaced today. Took the techs some nice donuts too. I know when I was in similar type of work, the little things like donuts were always appreciated.
Awfully nice of you sir:tiphat:

I'll give up my fancy Director title and corner office at my current place of employment, but I don't care, I'm after the green! :yum:



Thanks bro. :tup:

yah, but for good curry you have to let it sit over night to get its real rich flavor out. unless you're making like singapore rice noodles or something. then you can use curry powder and :yum:

Fire 04-24-2012 10:54 AM
I saute onions in butter using curry powder, cummin, paprika, crushed peppers and hot sause, and prepare the meat based on what it is. I 've done chicken, pork and steak. I've made a few different soups also.

kenchan 04-24-2012 10:57 AM
sounds :yum:

Fire 04-24-2012 11:02 AM
I like it. Oh an important step I always deglaze the pan to get up the good bits on the bottom and create a sauce. I try to use a stock that matches the meat but also will use a very small amount of water if no stock.
