Redoing the dash and gauges, moving the seats back, trying to fix the carpet, something with the valve covers, trans brake, trans shield, new fuel pump, blah blah blah

I was showing those pieces of 3" tube...I'm getting an x-pipe this winter.

I'm not actually going to an x-trim...I doubt my stock junk would even be able to turn that thing.

Just go to 41. I went 10s with a t-shirt, shorts, an out of date motorcycle helmet, and only the lap belt portion of the harness(no shoulder or dick strap).

If I can do it so can you.

I'm making the car legal this year. I tired of it and to be honest it's too fast to not have it.

I hope to have enough money saved up by winter to put on a full exhaust. Header, ORY, and Magnaflow Catback. This will be my first mod to my 99 Z
