The new orange banner is... odd.

not gonna lie... After getting this Z, I reaaaaaaaaaaaaally want to do a restomod 240/260/280z. The older, the better. They looked wicked back then and they look badass in restored condition with a nice stance. Part of the reason I want to leave the 370 stock. Then have a restomod to build into a beast, #Dreams

Fuckin' sick...

i mean a lot of people really have nice fender flares and pay a lot of money for them, it's quite rude of you to say really..

And fender flares are love. Fender flares are life.

Fender flares are how you properly fit excessive negative offset and fat rear wheels.

I'd be more inclined to have no fender flares. Y'all know I love my OEM flavor. But regardless, everyone of those examples is gorgeous.

that is interior is sick as fuck.

the black one with the 370z Nismo... I like its all red tail lights. That's what I'd want. (Although I wouldn't be opposed to Amber)

Trying to empty out the "shit to do to the car" bin in the garage. I had to get off my ass on the exhaust because I promised Bruce I'd get him photos and videos and start getting the word out. And then shit's just been sitting in my carhole whilst I'm out jetsetting the world.

My seat smells vaguely of baby puke and musty farts. You get served meals with a warm moist towel and actual metalware. I get a bag of pretzels and a serving of attitude.

When I fly, I need to make my own warm moist towels... In the lavatory like a common filth peddler.

So don't start with me about MBFN. Check your white privilege at the RLX-SH AWD forum, sir.

you cant bring a gun to a knife fight..
I went back to read it and before you edited to add the links, you're just giving him lip. (pun intended)
you have to give EVERY one the benefit of the doubt.

in the wrench thread, I gave him lip, but also offered a solution for him

Every so often I hit the road. Sometimes work, sometimes family travel. It's sporadic.

But, I mean, my life is like 90% in front of a screen already, so it's not difficult to stay up to date on bullshitting. Downside is I'll probably get eyeball cancer or thumb tumors or something because of it.

Eh, waddayado.

Installed my HR shifter cable bushings, RaceSeng Slammer and my subs last night.

This black knob feels so good in my hand

How is that knob? It is on my list of things to get eventually, once I sell more car parts off my 05.

I was a little worried because of what I had heard about BBK's(Big Black Knob's), but all my girlfriends kept saying how great they are and my usual knob just wasn't getting the job done for me anymore.

Seriously though it's probably the best shift knob I've owned, it sits lower than the stock knob which I really like. The mirror finish is really sleek, it fits in my hand nicely and shifts are effortless with the added weight. I was debating between the slammer or ashiko but didn't like the shape of the ashiko. 3rd gear syncro is still being a pinche madre so probably gonna flush the MTF this weekend.

It doesn't fit need to relax my throat muscles more, learn to breathe through my nose.
