The whole wedding prep thing can be very stressful on the both of you. We would love to share the moment with you but please don't feel obligated. You're going to have a lot on your plate and I would definitely understand. Don't let things get too far out of hand where you can't enjoy the day yourselves. Nothing wrong with small and intimate gatherings. Your true friends will understand.

Yeah, it's going to be tough depending on what she wants. Most of this whole deal will be paid by the two of us. Her side of the family alone is just HUGE!! We'll just see how it goes.

Let's meet at Harsh's house. When we get there, we can yell from the front yard: "Is breeeeeeaaaaaaakkkkfaaaaaaaaast ready???"

I guess we can leave it up to Mike to pick a place since it's his turf.

Yeah, we can do that. The Shell station on Laguna was a pretty convenient spot. Maybe the 76 on the other side is even better. Quicker access to the freeway.

You've got the right attitude. Before I got married, my brother told me to ask my future wife what she envisioned for the day and to do the best we could to fulfill her vision. With that, you can't go wrong.

I'm open. Coffee or fast food is a plus. Anywhere we can get everything taken care of so we can drive uninterrupted for a while.

We met up there, and we stopped in Redding for some dinner. Depending on what time we leave, we can stop elsewhere too.

4 tweeters? Why won't the speakers alone work?

I went to a local Z meet this last Saturday. Pretty good variety. 1 - Greddy TT 350Z, 2 - TT 300ZX, 1 TT Supra. All say there pushing 400HP.

Here are a few pics:

Jeff knows we got lots of dirt over at our truck yard and I do take my car there. So if I put intake, is it safe or no.

Also i'm thinking of putting exhaust... something that sounds mean and nice... maybe lil hp increase? comptech?

Intake will be fine. It'll only be sucking in dirt when you're there and the car's running. You may need to clean it more often than others but you'll be fine.

Comptech sounds good but I don't like the shape of the tips on the TL. Who else makes axleback systems. I wouldn't expect HP gains - at least nothing significant. unless you go with a SC?

Depends on what you want. If you want quiet with performance - Comptech Icebox. If you want Growl, probably AEM or Injen?

That way you could do your El Presidente duties by rallying the troops and make sure we adhere to wheelgap specifications.

It's too quiet here!! So I'll try to liven it up...

Okay guys, I'd like your opinions. I've narrowed my wheel and BBK choices down to these:

(click images to enlarge)

Volk Racing TE-37, Silver, 17x8.0 front and 18x10.5 rear:






Volk Racing CE-38N, Silver, 17x8.0 front and 18x9.5 rear:





Brembo Grand Turismo 4-wheel BBK, 13" (comes with a parking brake caliper):



KVR/AP Racing 4-wheel BBK, 13" (uses oem rear caliper/parking brake. this means I'd have to paint the rear caliper to match the front):
