I got flipped off by two blond joggers as I whizzed by them at 75 on a twisty 2 lane country road in my Nismo. I missed them by at leat three feet so I dont know why they flipped me the bird. After all, jogging on a road with NO shoulder is such a great idea i suppose. Stupid skanks.

Lol, you don't know why they flipped you off, I think you answered your own question.

Insanely perfect fall/autumn weather here right now. Nice tour of the Schwabisch Alb today up to see a couple nearby castles taking some great climbing and descending mountain/hill roads. Nice high speed run down the A-8 to follow.

Up to 210kph/130mph for a few mins then a nice steady 170kph/105mph cruise for the last 10 kilometers to the exit home. Just does not get any better in a Z here in Germany. I will miss these days during the winter!

Im lucky and I know it. I share this because we are smart enough to know how great this car is whether its cruizing at 70 or 50mph or letting it really use its legs and power. This car is so under rated it makes me smile. No doubt one could spend more and get much much less!!

I hear you. I ended up removing the helper spring and reinstalled the stock one.

Didn't like the added play at the top or just didn't really think it made much of a difference in feel?

I liked the feel of the stock spring better. We'll see what I think after AMS changes out my clutch this week.
