TS has roller dyno (I forget what manufacturer)... Wally, I don’t think they are open Saturdays... did you make an appointment?

2 hrs and $75 later they can’t find anything wrong with my car

I lost trq and can’t find it It's gone forever

Quaife and 3.7 gonna be shipped to them and installed by them.

Then I'm done (until I make a decision on Stillen SC or another car)...

 

I'll call you later tonight or tomorrow... PM me with who you got HFC & Headers from - I wonder if same place

 

How much torque did you lose? How much torque did you have before?

Done modding? You won't be done modding. Trust me, you'll find anything to do. Perhaps even stickers?

.

 

Butt dyno (I know the car very well)

– Trust me, I know… I said the exact same thing top many people before… performance-wise I’m done for a while (after the LSD & gears)… I have several idea for aesthetics – I’m working with Randy (caskyline) on some ideas… also have a big project idea that I’m not sure I will tackle - we’ll see...

 

I see. Sounds like a [temporary] retirement, unless you decide to ever go FI.

Mike, have you done any suspension mods? Never really paid attention to that.

Also, ever thought of getting a set of wheels? Besides the look, I really want some wider tires on my G. Even almost stock, I feel as if I have some traction issues.

Well, I have a long way to go before I can say I will stop modding in NA, suspension, and looks.

But whenever I have the chance and money, most likely after graduation, I will definately go FI. This will be my project car, once I buy another car which I could use as a daily driver. Lots of choices to choose from

I haven't made an appointment just yet. But will be e-mailing them like on Tuesday or Wednesday of next week.

damn sorry to hear about your torque loss. We'll find out on thursday night though.

 

Stillen anti-sways & Eibach pros... thats it for suspension... as far as wheels, the original idea was powder coat the wheels (black chrome & painted center caps) just until the OEM sh!tty Turdanzas go bald... well I got tiered of the crappy traction so I brought slightly wider/lower pro tires but kept the rims. I should have never done that... So, eventually I will probably get something - wheels aren't high on my priority list though because everyone does it and its too simple (nothing creative about after-market wheels)... I'm into doing what no one does. Sometime that's good, sometimes bad.

Maybe I'll just get a G37 and keep it stock

 

you might want to confirm Sat - I don't think they are open Sat (I could be wrong)... If you go during the week let me know - one of the 2 offices I'm working out of isn't far from there (in fact it's just around the corner from Church Automotive Testing)... If I'm at that location the day you go to TS maybe we can do lunch...

 

you know it wont be stock for too long lol

 

I'm shooting to make the appointment for the 28th(Monday) @ TS. Hope they have an open spot then.

And definately, lunch sounds like a good plan!

 

Was at Tustin this morning.. talked to a sales guy that keeps leaving me msgs... I finally told him, look - I have as much info as you - let me know when you have the car... If the looks are better than the pics - maybe, just maybe... and you're right - I would immediately go JWT TT when it's avail for that car.

As of now the plan is to wait and see how Infiniti counter the GTR... the MUST provide an FI G37 to compete with the 335i and whatever Toyota has up it's sleeve for Lexus... I'm more comfortable with a 2nd yr 3.7 anyway. I'm hoping at least OEM ST G37 coupe. Then yes, I will keep it stock (final last words )

 

Aw, damn... I won't be at that office that week... I am in Wilmigton Mon-Wed next week but then not back till Mon-Wed June 4-6... bad timing. Oh well...

 

just a few more days to go.

Anyone else want to join us?

 

Mr. Rivas - you know how it works... 50% of who sign up 2-4 weeks in advance will show... it takes the initiative and drive of a go-getter like you to keep that 50% alive!....

Frankly - I would say: If you got the **** - run the ****!!!! Stock or not!!!

Ted's got some ****! He'll give a good run!!! WaLLy, you got some on-commin' shiaaat!!! You'll run! I'll try to be there (meek and meager me )

Everyone else - Get yur butt to the track brothas!!!!!!! It's a blast to have the staff scratch their heads wondering why Infiniti’s are tearin **** up!!!!! 350Z, G35 Coupe & Sedan ~ FX!!!! - Hell we had an M45 there last time!!!!!

My allegiance is to G35 - but I must admit... when I got smoked by a 335i I have spoken to the driver subsequent times (he's cool, some are not)... Mustang Saleen Rashid is gonna show in 2 weeks... G35 & 350Z WE MUST SHOW!~!!!!

 

Mike, was it that blue/black 335i that was chipped over at Irwindale last time that smoked you?

Chip+Turbo=
