'08 MX5 GT 6spd.
the push button start still sucks because you have to insert the remote into that slot. That whole technology alone probally adds like $800 or more to the car when while you are inserting the remote in the slot you can just turn it and start the car for free, lol. They need to get whatever technology that lexus has where the car will start with the remote in your pocket, now thats hot.

Need some advice.... My little sister is looking at moving to DFW. The job she is looking at is in Fort Worth and I'm not sure where the nice parts of Fort Worth are. The addy of the job is :
4900 Alliance Gateway frwy
Ft. worth, Tx 76177.
If anyone can help me suggest a nice place for her to look at living, I sure would apperciate it.
Thanks a bunch,

The ride is good! Got full exhaust, intake, front mount h/e, and s2 so far. Good for about 250 to the wheels and mid to high 13s. Nothing compared to your beast!

hey guys. I haven't been around in a long long while now but wanted to see what was up.
I get my Vortech SC installed tomorrow on my G35.
Can't WAIT!
Are Ruf and Mantis still hanging around?

I'm sure you'll get better advice from someone that knows the area by hand.

So I should be picking up the car tomorrow. I'll tow it over to Jotech, have them do another leak down compression test, and if it looks good I'll dyno it again.
I'm retiring the bottle, and will work on getting that turbo kit installed after all that. I'm not going to do another bottle run on the dyno. I'll just go off of my last run on the bottle to approximate what a new run on the bottle would have put me at.

hey bud, not much.
just still in school out in Lubbock. heading to houston/DC/OC soon for some away rotations.
hopefully I'll get a chance to come back to Dallas when you guys have a meet sometime and see some of those CL-S 6MTs. I miss my CL-S big time although the SC I'm getting put on today should help squash some of that grief from mising it

Whew . . . what a day! - But it was productive
Let's see . . I got my body work done, grill mods done, most of my light bulbs changed out (still need the chrome turn signal bulbs),
intake mods done and new motor mounts in - oh yeah, and the yard work done too!!
Anyway, here are some pics of the grill mods I did. I ended up leaving the fogs in, but made a grill cover for it. I also cut out
that fake openings on the very bottom and put grill inserts there as well. But there was too much custom work to take the fogs
out and make it work right, but I like the look.
I got new Artic-white fog bulbs, PIAA LED sidemarker bulbs (note clear the head lights), new SilverStar HyperWhite High beams -
I couldn't get the chrome turn signal bulbs, so I still have that yellow reflection from the OEM bulbs -
I have to order them since no one local carried them. I'm holding off replacing the HIDs until they go . . . a bit broke after all this.

Looks nice. Good Job
McDavid Collision Center in Plano is where I take my car too. They do good work.
I got to get a A-spec rear lip for my car to cover the nice hole I got from a trailer ball.... ugh

If anyone used the "lastpost" command as part of saving the link into AZ here is how it works. I use this when I go to our DFW thread so I go right to the end and read the more recent stuff...

-Mr. Freeze is old :/
-Titan still give you a rush (if you don't black out on that first drop)
-Giant is more jerky/rattley than ever (you will literally start having back/neck problems for life when you get off)
-Batman still ok
-But there is that new Tony Hawk roller coaster that like spins you as you go on the track? - looks not too shabby.
-The WORST ride is that rocking ship
Oh and I'm guessing the lines won't be as bad as usual because kids are now back in school.
...just my input...
but uh how about D&B

The update is I got rid of the TC yea i know it was short lived and didnt even get plates for it LOL. I needed to get rid of Samantha's G6. I tried AUTOTRADER, newspaper, even big huge FOR SALE signs and nothing worked. So i finally traded it in. Volkswagon was having a pretty sweet deal on no interest for 72 months. SO her she is folks my new baby
