Do you know when that is? I'm not subscribed to anything because I closed pretty much all of my social accounts. Typically just find out from friends

The 4th Saturday of every month, weather permitting. March 25th is the next one. I'm not sure I can make that one due to an ailing parent.

banga21 03-14-2017 08:00 AM

How many people are in the Greenville-Spartanburg area?

Any Z drivers going to the cars and coffee columbia SC meet this saturday 3/18/2017 ? I went last month and saw a single turbo 370z as well as 2 RHD R32's. I'll be there again saturday, just got my Z1 intakes delivered so hoping to finish the installation today and then get the car all nice and cleaned up before saturday.

Nizmo.Man 03-15-2017 04:15 PM

It looks like itll be raining Saturday....:/

Volk Z 03-15-2017 05:55 PM

I'm just flying home now, did they salt any of the roads with the inch of snow SC got in Columbia area?
No idea why they even drop salt down for no accumulation.

Lol all the snow melted the morning it fell. Still got some nice photos with snow in the backdrop :D. No salt on the road though!

krazynismo 03-16-2017 08:40 AM

Nizmo.Man 03-16-2017 08:49 AM

Is it dependent on the weather or don't matter, rain or shine?

krazynismo 03-16-2017 08:56 AM

doesnt matter what the weather is, the meet is on regardless

Volk Z 03-18-2017 10:51 AM

There's a car show tomorrow sunday March 19th called dogs and pony show. It's a car show from 1-5 and also adopting dog companies will be there with some rescue pups. My friends run it, I will be heading there to support tomorrow. It's at the Columbia speedway...

If anyone wants to roll together we can all meet up somewhere. Great cause on this show!!

Volk Z 03-18-2017 10:52 AM

For whatever reason, Z started sputtering on hard acceleration Friday afternoon...was 1/2 the way into a tank of fuel from my normal vendor (e-free93).
So spent most of yesterday going over all connection's;Top & bottom.
Purged about 1qt. of fuel from top side & no signs of trash/water/ethanol/etc...
hooked everything back up & ran great,,,it did not throw a cel & i do not have a fuel pressure gauge or UpRev cable to ck. data while it was glitching...i just have a basic Snapon/Bluepoint code reader,,,nothing fancy.
Hopefully can make the next one. :)

I bought a little OBD2 scanner on Amazon last year that works great and has several displays that you can set up to how you want it. $50 was worth it to me. Good luck!

turtle64b 03-19-2017 10:59 AM

Volk Z 03-20-2017 01:23 PM

Does anyone want to do a Z meet maybe in 2 weeks?
We can go for a cruise as well....

RAMOS 03-20-2017 01:33 PM

I would be down for that...

Where you thinking Volk? I typically cruise with my friends up around Blue Ridge mountains ,for the scenery mostly.

Volk Z 03-20-2017 05:06 PM

We could figure out a place. How far are the blue Ridge mountains from columbia area?

Nizmo.Man 03-20-2017 05:41 PM

Kinda far :/ it's right by Asheville NC. Don't really know any nice areas in SC

RAMOS 03-20-2017 06:16 PM

Yeah, that is a lil too far for me... I am down for anything between Charleston and Columbia.

Am I correct that you're running 93 octane? If so, you might want to up to premium 97... I've had several Z's they don't like regular or low octane in my experience! Sputtering is a good indication. Just saying

Volk Z 03-21-2017 09:24 PM

Let's do Charleston!! Maybe cruise through the beach area. We could always do the Fast and Furious opening night deal cruise before hang out and then go to the show??

Spoiler 03-21-2017 10:06 PM

Hope none of you had your Zs out in the hail aroung Greenville/Greer today about 5:30.

Coming off of Pelham Rd today my daily driver Toyota got hammered. Windshield got broke in in 5 places. The hail took my side mirror off and hit the spoiler so hard that my 3rd brake light lens busted off.

I had to stop and get some duct tape to cover the window because the glass shards were dropping on the seat while I was driving back home and water was coming in on me

About 50 giants dents all over the car. These may be more then the old Dent Wizard guy can handle...

Wow...we didn't get anything that bad down here in Simpsonville. Sorry that happened to you, but glad it wasn't the Z.

banga21 03-22-2017 10:11 AM

Anyone around Greenville/Spartanburg area want a free set of 20mm spacers?

Wow! I can't imagine what that was like. I guess the insurance adjusters will be busy this week.
