Ordered some rod-end seals and rod-end boots from Seals-It. This should keep my new rod-ends lubricated and free of dirt and debris. Yay.

Also thinking 535i at the end of the year.

You go through cars like I do socks. :)

cool. :tup: now you will be sane for a while then? :icon17:


:iagree: ive not bought a car in 3yrs now!! :eek:

You I like...You are Car crazy..

Would you believe before I dumped 30K into my Z/28, I test drove the AMG, and the M series BMW's..

The reason I did not buy them yet was I had to finish what I started, and I am still young enough to want to track my car.

But a high performance Luxury car is in my future for sure.. The test drives were insane..

Incredible power and luxury.. I still need more time with my Car/Girlfriend.

But at 52 that window will be closing someday, and the need for Luxury performance will be needed..

I really loved the E Series.. Not too big, and crazy fast...

The M series Interior did not fit me as well..

But for now, I "think" I am still young, so the Z/28 and the 370Z are it..


But you sir, I like your style.:tup:


Oh God, when Kenchan reads this, he will think, "oh man, an old guy with slow reflexes, buying a 550 HP heavy car"...

Ive been contimplating my next purchase. Either want to do a 240/260z project or get a WRX. I really want to do the 240 or 260 but the WRX is the logical choice for the winters around here. IDK.

:hello:everyone. Life has totally been getting in the way of my time on the forum:shakes head:

:icon18:


hey long time no see, alchemy! :hello: i had a 02wrx long time ago when they first came out in the US. :tup: i too might consider getting the wrx hatch if things dont work out for me on my hatch hunting. i really dont need much power or awd though (im going to run snow tires anyway in winter) so i might look at like the end-of-life xB or the impreza hatch.

Does this mean giving up the Z? :eek:

God lets hope so!

:tiphat: The feeling is mutual!

Absolutly NOT!!!!! I really dont have plans on ever getting rid of it. My plan is to drive it into the ground. Maybe someday turn it into a track car once I get something new and nice, but thats a long way away. Im the biggest Z fanboy around Tracie, def not giving her up:tup:


Hey Ken:hello:

Nice! :tup:

:mad: WTF was done?! Thinking I'm going to contact a higher up.

My wife picked me up at work and we went to the dealership to pick up my Z after getting the 15,000 mile service. I'm glad to have her back! Unfortunately, they didn't have the oil filter in stock so I have to bring her back when it arrives. :shakes head:

Ummm, looks like a productive day spent in the shop. :ugh2:

Did they do nothing with the air box because of said "aftermarket hoses"?

Productive two days. :mad::mad::mad:

Not sure, I have to check with the advisor who was already gone.

Testing... testing... Is this thing on?
