Man the 5 speed is awesome. I'm loving the gas mileage I get with it, and back road driving is 100x more fun now. I'll let you check it out at the show. I want to see your 350 too! Nismo, if you need a ride for the show I can give you one. That way you don't have to sit in the back of the hatch and be a 3rd wheel for Bleach!

Edit: haha n/m I see that E already offered you a ride in the rally Civic.

I'm going this year for sure. The drive from AZ to CA is a hell of a lot closer than from NY to AZ. I'm confident in my Z, provided no semis run me over this time.

Come on dude, its like a 5 hour drive from here to LA. There's no reason your Z wouldn't make it that far

My daily driver, has a oil leak. The front seal is shot, so it leaks at the bottom. Also it burns oil in #3, with only 100psi in that cylinder. I would have to stop a few times, and check the oil.

I am currently working on my slicky as we speak. The other problem is....I am still jobless, and I am worried about that right now. I am running out of money. And I am getting a little scared at this point.

If I am in better finances soon. I might try and make it to the Sunday show. We will see. It all depends on where I am at. Will keep you posted. That is all I can say for now man.

the service is for anyone. specially homeless (not saying anone here just homeless people should join instead of being... homeless!!!) plus i know plenty of people that went into the service and had a future after highschool. ive almost considered it and still am after graduating college. airforce though so i s'pose its a bit different.

If you price it right, it should be sold very soon.
Is it in your local Craigslist?
