Scott - negative comments are fine, but you've reached that point where you really are just insulting the poor guy, and that isn't well tolerated.

What an A$$.. How is it funny? That's someones hard earned money going out the window. What if You run into a pothole or hit a curb (when you're drunk) and you bend up your suspension and you had to spend your money to get it fixed. Is that funny? And those videos you posted, how stupid can you be? Personally I wouldn't lower my car but to each his own. I'm not gonna put someone down b/c they lower their car. I don't like the way they look but I wouldn't even dream of calling it "Ghetto" and insulting everybody.
Do us all a favor and keep your stupid thoughts and comments out of the LS400 section

Everyone is entitled to their opinion, it's alright. I do appreciate the positive attitude on these boards; nice change of pace than what I'm used to!

I've been putting up with 5 years of verbal abuse on the 300ZX boards for simply being myself in my car build, so it's nothing new.

My car is like me. It's short (I'm 5'4" lol), brawny, corky, unique, slightly rough around the edges, yet at the end of the day still presents a sense of tastefulness, class, and professionalism.

To each their own.

Speaking of 300ZX's, I recently got featured in this month's Import Tuner!

Hey Steve, that's a nice Z ya got there. It must be nice to see your own creation featured in a magazine like that Good job.
It takes some class to just blow off the remarks that idiot Scott came up with. People like him aint welcome in my book. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but that idiot went overboard.
How is the new engine running?

New engine is running great, thanks for asking. Smokes for about 20 seconds on cold starts, but it's fine after that. Figure the valve seals are dried out due to a sitting motor (from local junk yard), but shelf-bought treatments have been slowing the smoke down tremendously. Runs like a healthy 1UZ!

The exhaust sounds mean! Getting rid of the resonators? before the mufflers allowed the back pressure to really echo and rumble off the mufflers. Still quiet as a hybrid at idle and low rpm inside the cabin.
