Shout out to Tampa Bay Area G-owners!

Seems like the majority of G35 enthusiasts live in Miami, Orlando, and Jacksonville. I know there's gotta be a bunch of us around the Tampa Bay area. Let us know where you're at!

There are a few of us around. We just haven't gotten to the point where we meet regularly. Several of us have attended events mentioned on the forums here.

That was definitely a fun meet! I was there with my red sedan (the significantly slower of the two). I need to check out the photos, I haven't seen them yet.

Re: Shout out to Tampa Bay Area G-owners!

Good to hear from you guys!

The car looks great and just slices the corners! I'll post some pics once I get them out of the camera. My caster and front camber are slightly off but I haven't noticed any weird tire wear (it's only been a week though). The springs have reduced the car's tendency of going into snap oversteer. She is very smooth and predictable through the curves now. Unfortunately I had a full load in the car the other day and the rear suspension bottomed out twice driving around downtown and south Tampa. It's almost as if the springs are too soft in the rear. I may have to either look into stiffer springs or go back to stock due to having passengers alot of the time because of work.

SFLG35 - did you get the 350Z s-techs?

Geez man! I'm surprised you're not diverting ships with that freaking light house on the front of your car. The pics make the light look really blue though. Are they really that blue?

That'll work. Where's everyone live? Maybe we can find a centralized place we could all meet at and hang.

I live in LOL (Land O Lakes).
