I try to hit this show every year if I can. It's a good show and fun to find deals at the book sale.

BTW - this is reportedly the LAST Wheels & Wings as we know it. Word is Motorbooks is moving, and although Osceola will continue a festival of sorts, the vehicle show will not be anything like it's been. Go while you can...

Well, I'm definately going, but I'm not sure if I'm entering the show or not. Since all you guys are meeting in the twin cities and coming from the other direction it will be hard to meet up with you all. And if I'm going to enter I don't want to be off in a corner by myself.

So what time are you all getting there? Maybe I can join you at the site. If nothing else maybe I'll try to find your group on foot and say hi.

Nate - do you know the model number of your D-Specs? They have 3 different model numbers, 1 for the sedan, 1 for the coupe, and another for the Z. I have a revised Z suspension and I can't figure out which ones I should get. How long have you had them and are they holding up well? My concern is that if you put on Z springs and keep your original shocks like Janik did they go out very quickly. I don't want to find myself in a mismatch situation where the shocks are going out too quickly.

I have the DSP-7 kit (for sedan), but have only replaced the front since I plan to use the extentions for the rears and had to order that and now am just trying to find the time to install and see if I can find an alternate mounting location. See this for details - https://g35driver.com/forums/brakes-...35-coupes.html

I've only had them for a few weeks, so a bit early to tell and I have not dialed them all in yet because I need to do that after the rears and will likely just do it during an upcoming autocross event. Certainly better than the stock one that blew out after the springs were installed (I knew they would go, but was hoping they would last longer).

The coupe and the sedan should have the same model number per Tokico, and I would stick with that.

Back to the show talk, nobody else is going???
