there's just something nice about Z31s with nice paint jobs. reminds me of 'supra what?' and 'the hammer' (both looked nice with good paint).

are you gonna be there? xB kyle said you might not make it.

i am 90% sure on driving over there.
only thing that would keep it from happening is if work finds out that they fucked up my schedule lol

also on a sidenote...

I like that guy's build because he's doing all sorts of crazy fab work but he's not some rocket-scientist mechanical engineer who spends three weeks measuring and calculating angles and bends to the one-millionth degree. You read these build threads where the guy is explaining how he used tensor calculus to find the perfect angle of 13 bends in his subframe that clear everything by 10^-3 millimeters and how his 17-pie-cut downpipe was designed with a full knowledge of fluid dynamics to add 3.32 hp and 27 rpm spool over the usual 30 dollar e-bay pipe.

This guy bolts his suspension in and the car looks like it's taking a nose dive into the ground, so he cuts holes in the rear shock towers, welds some sewer pipe and big honkin' slabs of metal to support it and bolts the suckers in 4 inches higher to lower the rear of the car. I give him props for doing things mere-mortal non-ME-types would do and not making me feel like a dumbass the entire time I'm reading his thread.
