My Sparco...

Hey, FellaZ. It's been awhile. i know. I never posted these... newish pix of my SPARCO Fighter bucket-seat and some other goodies. Excuse the painted 'dash'... I've been meaning to replace it. It's been like that since I bought it.

Just thought I'd let you guyZ know I was still alive and I still got this Ol' Gal going. Project is taking off finally... stay tuned.

good to see you sticking with it georgey. did you ever make the move east like you were going to?

good luck with the project. mine is coming to a close...*crosses fingers*

Yeah... it's love/hate with this car. Haha. Right now I just got her back on the road with 120K tune-up with a GReddy timing belt and TORCO SR-1 10w40 oil. Stripped the rear interior and got rid of all my stock seats. Finally getting tires for my ADVAN's. From here on the project is green-lit.

Still in California as of now. Been talking to my dad about moving over there and helping out and eventually taking over maybe. Thinking if I take over partially I'll just start a business of my own and make it an internet-based Performance Shop. I can sell parts, offer engine services, and what not over the interent. I already have a Supra TT and a Z32 NA for shop-cars. haha

How is your Lil' Monster taking off?

eh...they look funny. badgeless in the front is sex.

and georgey, i dont want to talk about my project. everytime i do something comes up...i have about 6 or 7 more parts to order and then it just needs to be thrown together. i will leave it at that...

hopefully i will have a liscence when i get it running because i have been having really bad luck with the police lately. really makes me wonder if i am supposed to drive this car with TT's. everytime i get it together something is wrong...im starting to really wonder.

yeah and who's fault is that... you only get pulled over if you're doing something you're not supposed to be in the first place

either that or they think your car is really nice or something... knowing your area, that just might happen with the gtp lol...

yeah the supercharger whine is quite the attention whore.

i think its because its 4th of july weekend. i just got pulled over again; that is 2 days in a row. i got a written warning for going 36mph in a 30mph, not having a front plate showing, and tinted windows.

he pulls me over and asks me "do you know what i pulled you over for?" i give him a dumbfounded look and say "uhh...no". "well you were going 36mph in a 30mph speed zone but i don't write tickets unless your going atleast 10 over". i say "so...um...why did you pull me over?". officer says..."im gonna write you a written warning for not having a front plate showing and going 6mph over, and are these front windows tinted?"

wtf...your kidding me right? i clean the car up nice for the first time in 6 months and i get pulled over for bull shit. guess i will keep it dirty but i did need to get the salt off of it from winter.

DeleriousZ · 07-02-2006, 08:54 PM

wow holy shit that is ridiculous.... i hate cops like that....

yeah...it gets old. the funny thing is, the one true sports car i have owned (the Z) is the only car i havent been messed with in. i have been pulled over twice in the Z. one for loud exhaust, the cop was a prick but i ended up driving away without anything and the other one the cop just wanted to take a look at the car and tell me that i need to put my seatbelt on.

so...needless to say, once the Z is running again, i hope my luck continues...which i doubt, but one can dream.

DeleriousZ · 07-02-2006, 09:38 PM

why weren't you wearing your seatbelt in the first place?

I agree... '90/badgeless is just cleaner looking...

I hear you... I'm not gonna mention too much on how and what my project is gonna consist of. Seems like every time I open my mouth about something it doesn't end up going the way i had planned and I look like an ass. haha So yeah... I have my ame plan... it's written and planned and I plan to stick by it 100% and it seems to be working so far, as evidence by my pix. Stay tuned.
