Noooooooooooo!!!



Nice on the wheel change. Are you going to end up finishing it off with an M-Spot rear bumper as well? That is one clean as hell touring!

[BCS_ZHP]

It has a Dinan high flow throttle body, the Dinan Stage 2 software, the Dinan performance muffler, and an AFE CAI. Despite the wheels/tires (it was a deal too good to pass up), going to prioritize my mods on mechanical before aesthetics (and I do agree with you on the clears). My two highest priorities are: (1) catback exhaust (ordered an HKS system from Japan although HKS pulled out of the US; waiting to see if they can still get it, and delivery would be 6-8 weeks; hoping for a Halloween treat); and (2) a new Bilstein suspension to lower the stance by about an inch. Then its lights, tint, etc. However, I'm currently searching for another car for my son (on his nickel), and finding a damn hard time justifying something other than a BMW. But he's paying, so the search goes on.

Looks great Bruce.

Bruce, it's Mafia approved. However, you lost the .com on the ZHP Mafia sticker. :biggrin

Marcus,
The younger generation, he cut off the dot.com intentionally. Told me that anyone knows if you're the real deal, then ".com" is there (assumed). When I asked him what it means if you don't have the ".com", he said then you're just a "poser". So guess we're IT approved by my 14 year old wonder kid.

So....you're posing if you have the ".com"

Dane,
Just asked him, he said including ".com" shows your age, I asked how so. He said Nana asks where's the Kleenex tissues, he just gives her a box of Kleenex. This young generation is trying to shorten up everything.

So asked him why he shortened it on "my" car, said he wanted to save me from embarrassing myself. Considering myself saved by a 14 year old.

[Marcus-SanDiego]

Thank goodness. We don't want you embarrassed, Bruce.

[danewilson77]

Definitely not.

And this is the same kid who is planning out his preference of mods. He wants tint first, then lowering the stance, and since he doesn't fully understand performance yet that's his third choice. But on performance he wants a louder exhaust. I'm trying to teach him about changing back pressure to positively affect performance, the sound will be what it will be.

lol this thread.

OP, your son is 14 and you're getting him a car already? Woah, lucky

[BCS_ZHP]

No, the 17 year old is the one in the car search but the 14 year old is my gear head in training, he actually likes assisting in the garage. The 14 year old has gone from a 350/370Z, to an F150 crew cab, to now kind of letting the touring grow on him, all in only 2 months. But the touring interest is only if I do the right mods (according to him). Suspect we'll go through a dozen more "must have" cars before he gets his license.

Good thing we aren't one of the other open/allowed generic top-level domains... Or one of the open country code top-level domains...

I just noticed zhpmafia.net redirects here... cool...

Yes indeed.

Wheels look good. I'll have to consider the ".com" mod.
