What about Red Robin at the rim or something else around there. There are plenty of places down the road at 1604 and Bandera. Just throwing some things out there.
We need to set up a photo shoot so I can get some pics of the car before I lift it back up a little.

Boost_lee 08-23-2011 10:58 PM

I was actually thinking Red Robin, so that sounds good to me.

It's a Thursday, so I don't know if you guys want to meet at 7 or 8pm. It will probably still be close to 100 degrees at 7 lol.
I have a company function beforehand so I'll be in the area around 6pm. I might need some time to kill

Splinter 08-24-2011 01:36 PM

red robin sounds to me.

i need to wash my car then if we going to be taking pics lol

ShoFamous 08-24-2011 01:57 PM

Me & my girl are trying to go to Fiesta Texas as often as we can before the season ends. If anyone there want's to join in just let me know. Just went last weekend...again lol

Boost_lee 08-24-2011 07:29 PM

Lets make it 730pm for tomorrow folks.

I invited a new owner, non-member, who just got a red nismo.

INNOVATE_1 08-24-2011 09:19 PM

Looks like I might be able to make it.. 70/30 forecast.. :)

Splinter 08-24-2011 09:45 PM

sweet! the more Zs the better lol

oh and BTW I just found out Cup Cake Meet 11 is going to be in San Antonio Nov 12th

Boost_lee 08-25-2011 12:38 AM

Awesome, we should have 6 or 7 Z's tomorrow night.

Splinter, did they announce what venue they chose?

Splinter 08-25-2011 03:32 AM

I don't think they have announced a venue yet, all I saw way Tiffany say it will be the 12 th of Nov, i'll keep checking and let you know

Boost_lee 08-25-2011 03:45 AM

sounds good. I saw that they wanted to incorporate an autox event with it, so I'm thinking San Antonio Raceway or blossom stadium

pg6speed 08-25-2011 10:23 AM

From what I understand its going to be at Retama.

Boost_lee 08-25-2011 12:57 PM

even better, minus the Selma cops

Boost_lee 08-25-2011 05:47 PM

if anyone has an oem wheel key can you bring it tonight? I need to bust two of mine off and my key is stripped

Splinter 08-25-2011 06:14 PM

sure but Idk if they are the same for all cars

jordan3720 08-26-2011 01:00 AM

Fun night everybody that came out!

Boost_lee 08-26-2011 01:36 AM

Splinter 08-26-2011 08:19 AM

atx370z 08-27-2011 01:43 AM

Any recommendations for shops in SA that can handle a turbo kit install, clutch, boost controller, tuning, etc. etc. etc.????

Boost_lee 08-31-2011 03:55 AM

Updated the member's list on the first page. If I left anyone out, or someone wants to be removed, just let me know

jordan3720 09-01-2011 12:10 PM

Lee, have you posted anywhere about your H2R track experience yet? I am dying to hear because I am thinking of registering for an event on September 17

Boost_lee 09-01-2011 06:32 PM

It's this weekend actually, hope it all goes well

jordan3720 09-02-2011 03:59 PM

ah ok, let me know please. Good Luck!

INNOVATE_1 09-07-2011 07:29 AM

How'd it go Lee?

jordan3720 09-07-2011 10:58 AM

JM, It's posted in his car's build thread.

jordan3720 09-07-2011 01:35 PM

Hey guys, I'd like an opinion. What do y'all think of the Avantgarde M310 wheels? I was actually thinking of copying this exact settup:
http://www.the370z.com/wheels-tires/...ep-purple.html

INNOVATE_1 09-07-2011 03:02 PM

Thanks Jordan!

The wheels look great but not feelin' the color so much..

Boost_lee 09-08-2011 02:10 AM

Nice wheel, but not so much on the color. To pull those off Jordan, you would need the stanced look. IMO, I just don't think loud colored wheels work as well with a functional stance (unless its a full race car). If thats the look you are aiming for, then it would be pretty nice

I vote for them in black or flat gunmetal.

Splinter 09-08-2011 06:45 PM

I think the wheels look good but not something I would personally choose. if I really wanted purple it would have to be something darker like black cherry. It'll be different for sure, I know people with black cars are tired of the full black out look.

Boost_lee 09-10-2011 04:22 PM

Anything going on this weekend?

jordan3720 09-10-2011 10:17 PM

I actually would be dropping the car with whatever wheels I get. I particularly liked that color after I saw the photoshoot with those wheels on the black genesis they just posted. I originally wanted to do a red accent color scheme (emblems, interior stitching, seats, etc.) but I think this purple could have a lot of potential. as manuel said, the blackout look is nice, but everybody has it.

I think it'll be another quiet weekend. Saw an older gentleman in a base magnetic black with FI exhaust tonight tho, lol

jordan3720 09-12-2011 10:41 PM

I found this as a potential setup as well, unfortunately I know nothing about offsets on our cars. If these look good on a 350, how would they fare on my car?
19" Volk GT7s 9.5" & 10.5" w/ tires

Boost_lee 09-13-2011 01:21 AM

Really depends on your drop...

You might be able to look fine with the fronts as is, but you can run a 5-10mm spacer.

Rears would need a 10-20mm spacer depending how flush you want. I would try a 20 since he is running a 275 tire.

the Leonine 09-14-2011 01:52 AM

Geeze I haven't had much time to stop by the forums lately to read what's going on. Add me to the list.

the Leonine - Eric - Mag Black - Touring/Sport

Work schedule is hella crazy, but I'm sure I'll make it out to a meet some day.

Splinter 09-14-2011 01:49 PM

nice welcome dude, check back every now and then, we don't meet often due to out schedules so it takes some organizing lol

sstevens7 09-27-2011 01:30 PM

I am going to be in the SA - Fort Sam Houston - thru January so include me in on anything that might be going on. THANKS! :tiphat:

INNOVATE_1 09-27-2011 10:48 PM
