Hey boss what's up! Welcome in advance to Florida! This thread is mostly dominated by all of us in the central Florida group, the panhandle guys are much more active on Facebook, and they're a great group that's pretty active with meets, mod parties, events, etc.

Here's the link to the group :tup:

I used to live in Pensacola till me and my wife moved to Kissimmee (which is loads better than dull country panhandle!) haha. Anyhow check them out, Tom and Chad run that group and are some of the nicest guys in the world and will help you install anything! They do mod parties about once a month or two.

fireman3361 01-19-2014 02:46 AM

Nice thanks y'all! I do love mods!!!!

Anyone in here using the z1 hood struts? Seems like they have good reviews and no hood bulging at all? Easy to install?

I have them with no issues, easy to install, but I have heard of a few people getting some hood bulge. Kelley fields here in Tampa makes some too, and I've never heard any issues with those

Hmmm well I do like CF

On another note, anyone know any good realtors in the Hurlburt area?

Thanks

happytheman 01-20-2014 08:07 PM

Been super happy with mine. No unsightly bulging. :)

(Seems weird that a bunch of guys are happy about that :ugh2:)

Anyone going to Rolex 24 in Daytona this weekend 25th and 26th?:tup:

Niche79 01-23-2014 09:39 PM

I thought matt was, cause there is that car show at Oviedo mall Saturday at noon. You could swing by and meet us for awhile and then head to Daytona, maybe another 40 miles or so away.

Zoren 370 01-23-2014 10:41 PM

Thanks for the heads up I'll see if I can make it. I plan to be there early in Daytona for the open pit lane garage session and autograph with the drivers.

The new c7 Z06 and new ZL1 Camaro is a must see.

that works, I think the plan is to be at the mall at 12noon. Gives you time to enjoy the cars for awhile and the race some, then drive over for lunch etc, then the short hop back to Daytona later that day since the race is all day long.

yea but he'll miss the pre-race walk around the cars on the starting grid. Thats one of the best parts!

Niche79 02-02-2014 07:41 PM

Just wondering if anyone has bought one of those z1 intake manifolds yet? I'd really like to see pics of what was modifed inside the manifold.

Was hoping to spend my tax refund on some new mods, but just found out I owe. FML.

Someone buy my 370Z. It's sitting at a Maserati dealership in Sarasota. It's a MINT car, never been abused, clutch was always babied. Only standard bolt on mods. If you're dead serious about buying it, PM me and I will tell you how much I traded it in for so you can negotiate as close to that price as possible!

Why is it at a Maserati dealership?
And you should tell us all what you got for it anyways! :tup:

If I start telling everyone what I got, then it'll set a false expectation of what the car can be worth traded-in and leave a lot of people disappointed. I've seen this happen in the past with friends who owned Zs in New York...and I'm like "well, I never said you will get that much for your car, that's just what I got for mine"

I got a lot of crappy offers of $22K and $23K from other dealers which I didn't go for (these are black book average auction prices which include cars sold regardless of trim and options). I got $24.5K from another dealer and that was tempting. But the offer Sarasota made me was the best by a good margin - especially considering I had a fully loaded car with only 16K miles on it and the paint didn't even have a swirl mark, the car was showroom clean.

The dealership was also very aggressive on moving cars around and didn't stop until I was happy with the negotiated price of both cars.

So the trade was more than $25K, but less than $28K. :p
