Ok so I reviewed the rules post and most of the replies. Here's my take on it:

The event is not "private" by any means. I feel cliff is just saying if you don't have a sports car then don't come. I get it in some aspects but some I don't fully agree with. I get it the space is limited and he's right that there have been instances where a few people acted outside the general rules that keep the events going. We have moved 3 times in 2 years based on people not wanting us around so it's nice to have a home for the time being.

I don't agree with it in the sense that I know some people come in normal cars with their kids to see cars most never knew where so close to home. I think that's awesome being that my father did that with me as a child and instilled the deep car loving roots I have today. It's what drives the car culture really. So I hope that isn't an issue but also it is very hard to enforce based on it being a public shopping center with businesses who love having customers flocking every other Saturday.

All in all I get why cliff said it and I feel most people who are mad took it the wrong way. That or they don't understand his meaning and reasoning behind it.

Signed up for trackday at PittRace on 4/18. Group 2 Solo. Looks like Group 1 and 2 might be sold out. Group 2 Solo and Group 3 is close to it.

So....I had a little car trouble the other day. Z went into limp mode on the highway. CEL light came on. Could not restart for several tries...

Took it into PRL motorsports. Found issues with throttle body and a coolant leak...so sad.

By the way. For those looking for good techs for the z..Prl guys have been so far excellent.

Sorry to hear of your troubles, hopefully you are all good for the weekend now though!

Where is PRL? I might have to check them out in the future...

For those who are looking for z tuner/tech around burgh...I have some feedback on PRL MOTORSPORTS just east of monroeville...

These guys are BADASS... I had throttle body issues and bad tune after stillen sc install. Also had coolent leak issues Took it to them to work the kinks..

1. Service- Denis is DA man. He will keep you updated almost daily. Contacted stillen , UpRev and vortech himself to work out the kinks. Can't say enough
2. Install - had them install new CBE exhaust while at it. Flawless.
3. Dyno tune- car runs so much better. 423 whp much more than I expected..

If you are looking for a reliable guys around burgh. I highly recommend them..I have been looking for two years for a Nissan shop..I am glad I found one. ( they were working on 1000whp gtr when I was there)

ZeeZee 05-15-2015 08:44 PM

Sounds fantastic! I'm struggling 2 find a shop 2 install some new tires! Lol

I'll definitely hit them up for any tuning needs in the future. Thanks for the feedback and hope to see you out at Cars and Coffee sometime soon!

BTW. Anyone interested, I have a nismo CBE that I just took off that I am trying to unload. Only 13k miles on it. Best offer...just trying to clear the garage

Hey all,
New to the area. I'm currently in Cranberry, but may be moving close to downtown Pittsburgh soon. I'm a daily Z driver that occasionally tracks. Anyone interested in a Z/G meetup sometime in March? I am a member of the HoustonZ's, and may be making some PittsburghZ's stickers as well.
I have seen a couple Zs in town, but not many.
