LOL yeah, it was Robert's commentary on their power loss at altitude that made me think I had a chance. LOL. Now against HIS -- no.

Hey, Robert, next time I drive by Cavemanwheelz, I'll snap a pic for you. They always have 2-3 350Z cars there, lookin fairly ricy. Wings, cans, etc. Rather not a good representation for your chosen chariot.

OK...
1) Never heard of "CaveManWheelz"
2) I'm gonna go out on a limb and base on this shop's name say all the cars there are riced
3) My chariot isn't riced.

That I know just from the pictures. But yeah, it looks like a lot of rice going on there. I'll try to snap a pic Monday on my way home from work.

That just it... Mazda said to themself; "This motor is slow. To sell this car it need more power so we need to turbo it." Nissan on the other hand said; "300hp N/A V6. That will work." LOL!

But it doesn't work. Isn't that why you changed it?

:P

Mazda needs to say the same thing to themselves about the 8. "It's too slow, Turbo it!" But I guess for a 1.3L it's pretty good for being only .3 sec slower or so than a Z at sealevel.

LOL!!! I was wondering who was gonna be the first to say that.

It did work. Worked for 2-3yrs. I wanted MORE though. Why I started looking at ZO6, Elise, Cayman S. But finances said it was wiser to boost a 350Z than start all over on car payments.

EDIT: Back on subject. Let not make this a 350Z vs Mazda thread.

Sadly you and those that to, won't see it. In 20 or so days it will be place on a trailer and towed to Texas.

With the V6 emblem on the back I was sure I'd get a run or 2 but alas, I'm sure they look over and see this grey haired ole fart (just pre-mature) and pass me off. I need some f&#@*ing tint on the windows. Eclipse, I'm coming.

Tried getting a pic of Cavemanwheelz today, Robert, but doing 55 and trying to snap a phone pic wasn't working out. So I'll try a slower route tomorrow. I'm afraid to stop there, though. My car might catch rice-ness.

If you ever get the chance, Stealth, just let those 350Z drivers know that rice is for eating not racing.
