I too love the show, but he and I would come to blows if I was treated like the other two. Imagine throwing a 300ZX T top off a cliff you were driving in the snow.

I do not feel any difference with my redline transmission change.

Really? Hmm, perhaps you're not driving it hard enough?

I'm am similarly interested in a lower cost option to refurbish them. I understand Plasti Dip is a very cheap change that also protects the original finish. It'll cover up any existing marks, but they'll be there waiting if you ever decide to peel it off. If I ever get the OEM rims refurbished, Plasti Dip is something I will definitely consider as a temporary change but also as a way to protect the wheels longer.

Sadly this is true, I am not. Traffic has not allowed much lately.

Sounds like we need to have a plastidip party Saturday at your place. I'm eager to try to the blaze blue!!

Fit a rather large (28"?) archery bag in the front seat. No problem!

That's a hell of a blind spot.

Z is still in the garage for 5 days now with no power at the house due to the Hurricane.
