Hey Jon, your car looks great.

I love how aggressive it looks. So mean.

Edit: Tom, I didn't even notice until you sent the PM.

the 350Z's are pretty slow, comparatively, and pretty small. Granted, I'm 6'5, but I feel like there's a heck of a lot more room in a GT

I wanted to give you a fighting chance! I started to put a quick post in my Turbo II thread, and then it was too late!

I'll get the big 15,000!

Haha, I'd like to thank my friend Tom for helping achieve this milestone...

You probably will get the 15k mark unless you remind me.

I was surprised at how hard it seemed for Bill to roast the tires on the Z, I thought they were much quicker..............Hmmmm

Your sons face Bill in the vid was priceless

I may actually be able to order a new shift ****/shaft combo. Its really only between the MGW gripper ****, or the GrabberPony ****(black 5spd white lettering). Opinions?

Maybe the pictures dont do the gripper **** justice. I like it one second then the next second I think it looks cheap and akward looking. But I like MGW's quality and all. Bill/Leo or anyone with the ****. Is it nicer looking in person then the stock ****? I dont really mind the stock ****, I think its nice looking. I just want a whole diff look with the shorter throws. Voice your opinions poeple!

First time I've seen our GT Jonathan, looks great, actually fantastic. Nice, very nice

I could have dumped the clutch for more smoke, but it's my relative's car, so no abuse. I was just illustrating what a 'brisk' launch looks like.

Yes, Chris is a character allright!

You can imagine what took place on that thread.

Like Jonathan said, JR was basically called out on his posting practices, then ended up arguing with TDS (our TMS Mod).

Figures. Guess they'd run out of Anti-GMS-Flare cream and had to restock, pronto

You said, I think, that you're running 275s all around, right ? if so is it 275/40s... and are the wheels 18x9 or 18x10 ? I think that 18x10s won't fit up front so if I can do 275/40-18 on 18x9s then I will.

Been going back and forth between Chrome and Anthracite deep dish and going back and looking over yours, Chrome might be the ones. Even if I don't like how they look on all of the online shops.

Do you have any side profile pics, not 3/4 view, of your car ?

Brian, Jed's running 275's on all corners. If he comes Saturday, you can check it out.

Now thats funny Brian!

The sad thing about this whole GMS JR deal is JR could have used this as such a positive....................... Interpersonal relationship skills are indeed hard to master for some of us and those skills are critical for a business to succeed and thrive.

Sometimes even though you're back 2 steps, you also move a whole bunch of steps forward in the end.

If I recall somewhere along the path in the first thread TDS gave JR his review taking up several points I had mentioned earlier on. Sometimes zipping it is the best policy
