I don't understand why they don't do something for the Mazda 6...or the Fusion once that gets a manual option. Milan too!

I'm working on it, give me a break!  Actually, if not next Wednesday, it'll be the Wednesday after that. I'm going to give it my all and see if I can't pull off a miracle. Wish me luck!

See the Spring Zing forum. Depending on if my Venom kit gets sold or not, I may go for it at Spring Zing. If it gets sold, I don't know if I'll be buying a ZEX kit down the road like planned. I think I'm going to end up parting with the car to be honest.

Well, the Nitrous Express wet kit with a few goodies added on works really well to be honest! Heck of a lot cheaper and easier to trouble shoot. You can use twin nitrous/fuel jets, one on each side of the upper intake with smaller jets to make it safer and more evenly distributed.
Starting to get bored with the car?

Nah, not at all. Just getting bored with the car scene in general. Since I bought my house a year and a half ago, the only things I've done to the car are wheels/tires, 65mm T/B and the Xcal2. It'll FINALLY be paid off in May, and I coincidentally have another loan that I could pay off with the sale of the car. I'd then have about $500/mo. that I don't have now, which could go towards some wanted home remodeling projects. After I get some things done around the house, I'll move onto another car project. I'm still undecided though. I guess at this point, I'll have to be talked into KEEPING the car, and not selling it.
