Oh, I have seen you around a couple of times. I live in Summerlin too. You have also been to a couple of Sin City Z Meetings too right?

I saw a realy ugly 350Z today. It was LeMans Sunset. The driver looked like he was about 17. I don't think the car had ever been washed. It had a dent in the drivers side door and was missing the center caps from at least 2 of the stock wheels.

What a disgrace, especially to such a new car......

I see that way too often - dirty stock wheels squealing as they stop. It hurts me.

Saw some guy pulling into the Jupiter Golf driving range on Craig in a black 350 with black aftermarket rims. Looked nice.

Sigh.... My car is squealing on me! ...it pisses me off! Ive cleaned the rotors/pads, took off the wheels and have a lot of pad left. But still...

I think its from the heat?

LoL, I've done that a couple of times for the last few months now whenever the rotors on my Z32 squeal, I thought I was just trying something new, didnt realize it was a legit thing to do, I thought It was just something my dumbass came up w/ to depleat my pads quicker. But It really does work I guess I wont feel so bad when I do it now, since it is a known method.

I saw one that was almost as bad... on Harmon, near the Hard Rock... a Silverstone coupe, haven't seen a car wash for a while and had a few very visible dents on the driver's side door.

Also I saw a Silverstone roadster at Target, automatic (I had to check it out), driven by a lady in her mid to late 30's.

This is off topic a bit. But I saw a nasty *** Buick GN last night. I was getting on the freeway at Trop and I-15. I heard the turbo before I ever saw the car!! That thing was whistling hard; I caught up to him just before the 2-15 turn off. That car has that " don't F*** wit me look and sound" all over it.

That reminds me of Chris Chow's TT GNX. 1036 hp at the wheels! Saying that one got owned by the GNX wouldn't even begin the tales of embarrassment.

Saw ZZtop today on the 215 and followed him all the way to Sunset & Eastern. Man his APS TT Z sounds mean. He punched it as I was beside him and all I heard was the turbos. Made me sad to his his spotless TT Z next to my dirty N/A Z that still has my race wheels/tires on it from the last autocross lol.

It's not always so spotless, and your silver Z looked pretty damn good with the drop and those wheels. I love the chrome silver.....

I wish I could hear the turbos like you could. I guess I'd better let somebody else drive it so I can experience that from another car.

Great seeing you today!! I hope I run into Rob...I'd love to see his APS ST setup.

I will volunteer! lol.

Do you work or live over by Sunset/Eastern? If so I would love to come check out your setup in person. I work at the Insight Air Center on Sunset between Eastern and Pecos. Its the same center with The Brewery right in front.

Yeah...I work at a **** studio near Pecos and Sunset.

Actually, I am based out of a TV production company on Harrison. I have a shoot again there next Tueday, but I'm not sure of the times yet. As soon as I know, maybe we can hook up either before or after.

I've rolled by one of those studios before... Mmm! Mmm!

Saw a PPW Z without tints and it was dirty! He also had one of those tree car freshner hanging on his mirror.

And I saw Zro rolling out of base around 1540.

Saw a LS Z with a billet grille and Mount Charleston plates going through Red Rock Canyon and then I saw it again in the Wal-Mart Parking lot in Pahrump.

Just my personal opinion, but billet grills on any vehicle make it look cheap (yes, even on trucks)... it's like putting on Altezza-style taillights. No offence, Aarif! I like the 2006 style front bumpers though.
