win the lottery or something?

No, just got fed up with looking for a decent condition Zed... I was in need of a daily driver desperately (Civic finally bit the dust), and this thing litterally just fell into my lap.

So, I talked the Dealership down from $19,800, down to $15,000 Out The Door.

I've just a few things that I have to fix before it's in excellent condition, but it's an amazing car.

nice car...still for $15k, you could have had a mint Twin Turbo so i found it quite repulsing.

i was looking for a 98 or so A4 when i bought the GTP.

very nice car, i would love to have an audi. but its only a nice car if you have a Z first. if i had $15k, i would get a very nice TTZ. "but i needed a dd". then find a car that is less than $3k and you will still have enough money for a nice TTZ. i guess you just arent a true Z enthusiast that will make sacrifices.

Yeap... Guess I'm not a true Zed enthusiast. :rolleyes:

Whatever, there's nothing I can do if there's no decent Zed for sale around here.

there is things you can do but i personally dont care what you buy. good luck with it wes.

didnt come here looking for respect.. it was just an off topic thread just thought i would join in on the fun. as for my busa, i have 14,000 miles on it no problmes as of today, well except one, the back tire seems to wear out real quick. see when i bought the bike i was looking at bang for the buck. heck i could have gotten a harley made in mexico if i wanted to spend $20,000 on a bike. its not over weight, only weighs 475 and my bike pushes out 170hp at 197mph. soon to do a cam swap, drop it down and extend the swing arms. dont figure with the power to weight ratio i shouldnt have any problems breaking 140 or passing a civic.

HA...only thing funnier than a turbo minivan would be a turbo minivan with a snow plow on it. That would rule! 4wd kinda helps when trying to push a snow plow, though...

Nice car, Wes. I've always liked those. Kinda expensive, though.

you bought a bike to pass a civic??? :grinno: and yeah...ummm....yeah. sorry, i dont really need to say anything. you bang for the buck is obviously different than me, i like bikes that do what a bike was built to do, not a gimic...busa is a nice bike but purchased by the wrong people.

so i just got done cleaning the exterior of my Z for 4 1/2 hours. did the meguiars 3-step system and it is really nice, she is so much smoother and shinier.

dude...thats a bit obsessive. you can come clean my GTP's interior. :lol:

nah that's actually pretty good... i did that same thing on my integra and it took me the better part of a day... well worth it tho, i had people ask me on numerous occasions what year it was (most people who dind't know the car thought it was an 00+ model) and they were all shocked that it was a 93 with original paint.... that thing fucking shone in the dark, boy do i miss it...

but yeah, if it wasn't so FREAKING COLD here i'd be wash/wax/polishing both of the z's right now... too bad it's DARK by the time i get home from work:banghead:

oh.. and wtf is up with the new look? i don't like it....

yeah the new AF display is weird.

bmw m-coupes are freaking sweet... as stated by this next video..

http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-781163969053975339&q=m+coupe

hits a top speed of 278 km/h (~173 mph) on a busy freeway.... absolutely insane driving skills...

it was about 50F when i was waxing my car and my hands about fell off when i was washing it and then chamoising it. and then about the last 2 hours i had a shop light out because it was dark. and then i woke up today and it is rainging, fuck.

"Original Sin" took alot of my time....

Got pix of your 510?

God dammit...

Im off AF for 3 days and I miss 3 pages worth of alcohol talk... :disappoin

jello shots...woman love jello shots and they love playing with them.

strawberry daquiris work well too. nice fruity drink with a little jazz always works great.

Sounds good! But the best one I have found is "fruit tingles"

1/2 shot vodka
1 shot blue curacao
1 shot parfai amour
fill rest of glass with lemonade
and dash of genadine

The drink turns purple :P And it doesnt taste like there is a single bit of alcohol in it! Tastes just like the fruit tingles lifesavers and gets you well drunk!

Choc mint shots are also a winner.
If you are going to get yourself well fucked there is only one choice. ABSINTHE Makes for a highly entertaining night alround and some funky ass dreams too :smokin:
Love the new sig by the way :evillol:

Wes: The audis are nice cars but just totally not my style. They are too rich yuppie for my liking. It would be more what I would get if I was 40years old. But they are still nice cars. Good price too!

Coke Vs Pepsi : there is no contest in Australia. Coke completely dominates pepsi in sales by about 20:1. and thats being generous to pepsi. I prefer pepsi though :P

LLZ: Had you never tried port before??? Port is technically wine but its something completely different to normal wine, it should be in a class of its own. And yes it does get you well fucked. My dad has 6 bottles of port from 1945.. they are worth about $500 a bottle now. :eek:

Why havent I been here? Glad you asked. I was busy doing a few things. I officiall handed over the keys of the GTO to the new owner today :sadwavey: I am boostless once again. It was fun while it lasted and I got $2500 out of it.

My gfs bday was on monday and 'activities' took up a lot of time that day so I couldnt get on here

And on the weekend, I was at Rally Australia :iceslolan That kicked so much ass it wasnt funny. The super stages at night were AWESOME! They convert a trotting arena to a dirt rally course and hammered around that skidding along 20cm away from concrete walls... fucking insane... Their cars sounded sooooo mean as well... I so want to rally now...

^ Shit! ^ I saw it on TV! I'm a big rally fan myself and want to take some time off next year for Rally Mexico! Did you see when those damn kangaroo's got hit? Fuckers!

hey LLZ, I know in like 93 they started makin an AWD dodge... maybe you could swap trannys and rear-ends and have an AWD turbo mini van???

That'd be fuckin nuts, D. I don't want to turn into a Caravan/Voyager guy, though.

ABSINTHE!?!?!?...you have PM, yaggus...

No, I'd never had port except for "wine tasting" in culinary school. What a day that was...lol. Good stuff.

Oh...and if you're wanting to do shots, try a "Black Widow"...or I've also heard it called a "Dead Nazi". Jagermeister and rumplemintz (however you spell it) each half and half. It seperates...looks cool and it tastes like mint...good shit.

"Original Sin" took alot of my time....

i've got lots of pics, but still haven't figured out how to post pictures here on af.

i could email pictures to you if you want, just pm me with your email and i would be happy to send them out.

"original sin", huh? i'll have to look into that.........

www.imageshack.us for all your picture hosting needs

freak: it's about 35 degrees around here, so i'd be worried about shit freezing (ie my doors freezing shut... had that happen once, wasn't fun) but there's ways to get around the cold hands and keep them dry..

absinthe around here isn't really that big of a deal... the shit they sell in the stores here is just really strong alcohol, doesn't contain as much wormwood extract as the real absinthe that makes you hallucinate.. which is alright, the only problem is it's about $80 for a 750ml bottle (26 for you imperial bastards)

rocker that wouldn't be possible unless he was going to cut a driveshaft tunnel down the length of the van and do quite a bit of rear end work..

oh and when yag says 'activities' he means sex, just for anyone who didn't know lol

so...after my 4 day long weekend, i accomplished absolutely nothing but i did receive my new phone today. Smartphones kick all sorts of ass. :D

^ Shit! ^ I saw it on TV! I'm a big rally fan myself and want to take some time off next year for Rally Mexico! Did you see when those damn kangaroo's got hit? Fuckers!

Nah I didnt see that part :( That happened to Petter Solberg in one of the country stages on Saturday morning. I wasnt there for that particular part of the race. The kangaroo rooted the car completely though! The super stages were awesome, we had really good seats for it. Take the time off and go down to Rally Mexico hey, it's well worth it. You wont be dissapointed. And hell, while your down there, say hi to Zgringo for me :icon16:

oh and when yag says 'activities' he means sex, just for anyone who didn't know lol

Shhhhh.... dont tell anyone... they wont guess

Also, what grade thudrone are you guys allowed in Canada? In Australia we are allowed i think 5mg... or something extremely pissy like that. Given the similarities of our govts, one would assume it would be about the same.

Thudone...you mean thujone?

so im at work and its fucking cold out. stupid fucking planes. most pilots are the stupidest people on earth. almost all of them lack common sense.

Post 'em, man! O email 'em to me and I'll post 'em for you! I love 510's!

i posted pics of the 510 in my member gallery, not sure what to do next to post them to the forums.

i think that you can view them there, not sure though

as you can tell i'm more interested in "go" than "show", i'll do the bodywork and paint after all of the performance stuff is done.......just put on the dual carbs, the suspension is allmost done, next is lsd.

this will link to the gallery (hopefully)

remind me when i design the mechanicals for the next Z to come to your house and dangle the keys to it right in front of your face and tell you that you could have had it but you called me a chump, and i will give everybody else a new Z but not you. :iceslolan

:lol:

owned with a capital P

Sweet.

Auto-X?

yea, mostly.
i also go to the 510 clubs track days and i like to drive in the mountain/hill roads around here. the car handles/corners like a go-kart, and with the new carb setup it has significantly more power than before. i can't wait to get it back on the autox course.




deleriousz,

you likey the big carbie? :evillol:

they are DHLA 40's, i had considered going bigger(45's), but since the car is primarily for autocross, i went with the 40's to keep the bottom-end power.

dude...i hate working afternoons.

hmmm...white castle.

and dimefury: nice, very nice!

lol dime those things are massive... they'd be FREAKING SWEET if i had them and had someone to tune them for me:D
