i just picked up my car last night and threw the filtermag on already :D
i bought a purolator, supposed to be one of the good filters. had 2 for $9.48 + $4 rebate
Amazon.com: Purolator PL14612 PureONE Oil Filter (Pack of 2): Automotive but u gotta buy 3 sets for free shipping and u can only claim the rebate once. :(

hope the link works

has anyone blacked out their headlights/taillights? or is anyone interested in doing it? after i get a Z, that would be one of the first mods i want to get... besides tints, but I don't trust myself doing it. hehe

Cru3l, that was me behind you/in front of you coming up the hill this morning. I honked and waved but you were blasting the hell out your radio and didn't hear.

thispecialk 08-11-2009 12:14 AM

IMWEZL 08-11-2009 12:16 AM

I'm glad I waited. I just found out I'm deploying very soon so the parts would have just ended up sitting in storage.

Romanowski 08-14-2009 02:04 PM

SSO or Combat COM?

bboypuertoroc 08-14-2009 03:23 PM

Hmmm on second thought I would probably leave it as is. The heat might weaken the metal or cause some secondary effects.

Sorry, I've been up all night can't sleep.

thispecialk 08-19-2009 01:00 PM

i tried muscling that peice with a vice grip but no go its solid

bboypuertoroc 08-19-2009 01:55 PM

Almost the entire rail running down both sides of my Evo is bent to ****. It happens. I still use those points to jack it up anyways.

Yeah if you tried and it didn't budge leave it as is. No one is going to notice...alright I might be that guy who points it out if we ever get a 370Z meet. :icon17:

g96818 08-19-2009 10:02 PM

just leave it, metal get tougher every time you bend it, but it also becomes a little more brittle.

thispecialk 08-21-2009 12:13 AM

Who drives the yellow 370z on Schofield I saw it yesterday on base I was in the white police truck tried waving to say wats up but guess he didn't see me

thispecialk 08-21-2009 12:15 AM

Wats ppl plan this weekend any meeting

IMWEZL 08-21-2009 05:15 AM

Man you guys should Autocross the the 370Z is extremely fun on the course. Its not a hard car to drive either with VDC off. It won't drive itself to the podium like the GT-R but it is still fun.

Next event is Sept 27. More info at Welcome to SCCA Hawaii Region Web

thispecialk 08-22-2009 07:01 AM

When and wat time is that at and how much

IMWEZL 08-22-2009 09:39 AM

Military membership is $30 ( I think) and civilians are $70. I would sign up online or give them a call. SCCA Sports Car Club of America is the national website where you can become a member. Hawaii is the local region.

Below are the dates which are all on a Sunday.

09/27/09 10/4/09 10/18/09 (Test & Tune)
11/1/09 12/13/09 1/10/10

Nice!! Congras! When you install the exhaust, is it possible to take some pics for the DYI section?

Romanowski 08-28-2009 12:07 AM

I haven't decided if I am going to do it myself or pay someone.

Romanowski 08-30-2009 09:34 PM
