Time for brakes. A good excuse for an upgrade, and a ton of money saved by doing as much as possible myself.

Finally got the audio system in and tuned!  Special thanks to The Car Audio Depot for all their help!

L-R: Installer Sean with the finished car. Infinity tweeters custom mounted. The Alpine 9833 below the nav screen.

Matt's BMW came in on 9/9/03. Couldn't resist putting a couple of photos up.

I've had some people asking what my online avatar on my350z.com means.  The RFC stands for "Racers For Christ" an organization of Christians involved in motorsports, and the Nitro Fish logo is a tip of the hat to my prior involvement in producing NHRA television events for ESPN & Diamond P Sports.


Racers For Christ    "Cars are our Passion, People are our Purpose."


Friends

Thought I would start a collection of friends I've met in the Z community.  You meet the nicest people in a Z (sorry Honda, now I'm showing my age.)

Meet Jeremy McCreary

I met Jeremy on 350motoring.com.
He drives a great looking black roadster and hails from Denver.
He has a great site for Z owners to check out.

Just click here.

Megan's Z rocks

Megan's a friend of mine in Georgia.
She recently picked up this classic on ebay.
Drives and looks great! Go Megan!
