Try to drive to old St. Augustine maybe about 30-40 mins from you.
Nice tourist destination.
You can do photoshoot with your Z on there.

Deltona/Deland area if it means anything

Colin MKV · 03-26-2015, 08:55 PM

Anyone from Bradenton/Sarasota area? I feel I don't see many Zs around

Trutactix · 04-03-2015, 10:39 AM

Well I'm door knocking I Bradenton if you're into home automation and alarms ;D but seriously I'm about 2 hours away close to Tampa

Was a good week in the Cape, saw 3 Zs. Most I have seen in a while. 1 PW Sport or Base, nice black wheels, 1 Black Sport stock and a sunkist orange 350z. Needless to say I didn't get to actually meet the owners :| but it was good to see some around.

Has anybody heard of NUR performance in Ft Myers, any feedback or your experience with them is greatly appreciated. Time for new rotors/pads and looking for a place around here to do the install. I have read and read and watched vids on the DIY's. I want to DIY just don't have the right tools to do so, need another set of jacks, and a bleeder. Their price for stoptech plus installation seems reasonable. Any thoughts thanks.

Nur performance is good. I recommended a friend there and they build his Z for the track. So you are in fort myers? I used to live there. Come to estero park next week on Saturday. We have a picnic with the South Florida Club. I'll be there

370zHawaii · 04-18-2015, 10:51 PM

Thanks Datsun, sounds good, I live in the Cape. Ft Myers is right next door as you already know. Estero is not too far about 40 minutes for me. I will def try to make it, would be awesome to finally meet some other Z enthusiast like myself. My Z is damn near stock, nothing extraordinary except that I absolutely love it......on a side note I am saving up my pennies for my next project.

Good news, and bad news. The bad news is I spoke to a employee at NUR performance this morning about replacing the brakes in my Z. I was told that Akebono does not exist on the Nissans period and it was only Brembo calipers.....Then was told that a base/touring Stoptech package not including install was $$$$. The Sport-Nismo version is probably much higher, I didn't bother to ask. When I mentioned ordering the kit myself from Z1, I was also told that Z1 rotors are pure crap and that I should stay away from them (I honestly don't believe that due to the fact that their rotors are centric core which is what Stoptech is). I understand trying to sell a customer your product but giving them bad info is not good business IMHO. Unfortunately I had my hopes up really high with this place expecting them to be a little more knowledgeable about Nissan in general.

The other bad news, a family member passed away recently and the memorial service is scheduled for this Saturday, so unfortunately I will not be able to make it to Naples Meet as much as I really want to go.

Now the good, I joined the South Florida Z-Club FB page, great group of people. Thanks Datsun for the info. I also decided to man up and do the brakes myself and order the bleeder, I just don't feel comfortable or confident that a shop will do a better install as myself and put as much care into it as I would.
