Any Car Club?
 

Any Z or Nissan car club in Jacksonville, FL? And... happy Thanksgiving!!!

I see SunCentral (combination of Suncoast club and Central Florida clubs), but i cant find their location of home base. Just seeing if any official or unofficial meets are here in Jacksonville this weekend (11-29-13 or 11-30-13). Anywhere where my girl and I can hand out with other Z folks. We do parking lots (get your minds out of the gutter! lol)

Thanks!

Try looking for Staggardmotion of Jacksonville . Cool guys.

FYI, we are not affiliated with SunCentral.

I'll look them up right now. Thanks a ton!

Just paraphrasing what is on the SunCenral's web page. May wanna clear that up with them? Thank you for speaking up.

"The new SunCentral Z Club is for all Z car enthusiasts. Members own or appreciate Z cars from 1970 240 Z’s to the new 2013 370Z. The Club is a not-for-profit organization formed to provide its members with access to knowledge about their Z Cars and also provide a forum for members and other interested parties to exchange Z Car information.

This new Club represents the merger of the Suncoast Z Car Club and the Central Florida Z Club. This new Club combines the efforts, talents and skills of each group to better serve the Z community – from coast to coast!"

Here is the link. didn't mean to open a can of worms. lol Maybe an old club that needs updated? Just ran across that link doing some research.

About | SunCentral Z Club

It's all good man, there isn't even a can of worms to open. A lot of us on this thread are part of the Central Florida Z Club, which sounds similar to what they're talking about. Osiris was just explaining that we've never actually met the other club and are not really affiliated with them. Just didn't want any confusion! :tup:

Zdayz 2014!!

Yes, there used to be another "Central Florida Z Club" That club is no longer and the existing members are now with SunCentral. We represent the new "Central Florida Z Club"

Gotcha, No worries at all. :tup:

Yes, I too am going to ZDayz 2014. Can't wait. Haven't been there since I was the webmaster for ZDayz. Just looking for somewhere to hang a little this weekend in Jacksonville, FL. I may just have to cruise around Jax with my girl and check out the sights. Will be looking for a good place to take some photos of my Z while in the city. Looking for some cool backgrounds.

New is always good. I am trying to get the Palmetto Z Club back up and running in Columbia, SC. Jim did a great job, but he has been really busy. Ya know how clubs can be, 10% of the members do 90% of the work (not always the case.) Time is always a huge issue, but the enthusiasm is pretty much always there. I had to drop out of ZDayz webmastering because of the time.

Well look us up when you get there man, we'll be the cabin on the corner directly across from the rec hall and restaurant. Where they usually have the exhaust competition line up. We'll have a big black CFZC banner in the front. It would be awesome to meet you!

Zdayz 2014!!

I bet there will be a ZDayz 2014 post here pretty soon. I know all the cabins and lodges are booked at Fontanna Resort. I got the last lodge room. Wanted to stay in a cabin like I always do, but i just reserved a room last month. My favorite is near Stonehenge.

Anyway, off we go to see Jax. :happydance:

Yeah I can't wait, it's gonna be a blast. Tony from fast intentions will be raffling an exhaust, and I heard a rumor that someone might be raffling a sweet import car. Someone might leave there with a new set of wheels :excited:

Zdayz 2014!!

<insert string of profanities> ....
So for those of you who don't know, I have terrible luck with getting rear ended. Tonight makes the third time I have been rear ended through no fault of my own. First was in a McDonald's drive thru when the guy behind me got in such a hurry to get his egg McMuffin or whatever that he hit the gas instead of the brakes. Second time was on the Interstate when a drunk rear ended me at 5:30 in the afternoon and continued to drive into me and then tried to drive off like nothing happened. When the police arrived at his house, he actually tried to call the police on the police.

Well this evening, rear end #3 happened. He is also the relative of some Z owners who were at the Nismo Performance Academy in Miami. This is the worst rear end yet and it's not so good. It also includes my g/f's new Magma Red Z. We were both stopped at a red light waiting on it to turn green. He barrels into her without stopping, and she was then pushed into my car. He said he "looked down for a second" and when he looked up bam....he told the cops he was tired, but I'd wager he was texting while driving. He did get a ticket, now I just hope his insurance gets this fixed ASAP.

And somehow this is the damage to the rear of hers and the front of his car.

His windshield did crack and his air bags did go off. Neither of our airbags went off though. Now the really bad news. Despite how bad my car looks, it's a lot worst. The hatch will not open, and if you look at the damage the rear bumper seems to have been pushed up into the hatch by a good bit and then popped back out. Additionally, my car now appears to be a few millimeters wider or the hatch is now a few mm thinner as the body extends past the hatch on each side. The side skirts are also off by a bit now as well. And I now have a random shimmy while driving, and the alignment is off. FML.

So anyone know of a REAAAAALLLY good body shop that can actually tell when the rear quarter panels aren't right? And/or of a good auto accident lawyer?

On a side note...I should start buying Nismo bumpers in bulk.

Dddddaaaaaaaaammmmmmnnnnn! :eek:

So sorry to hear about this, man. :(

Keep us in the loop on the repairs. My shop is out of Daytona (Holly Hill actually). The Body Werks. They do good work, I've been pretty pleased with them.
