By the way, are there any good parking lots around there? Because that's really important to me, hah.

I bought my 240 last year in march. I looked and looked and looked EVERYWHERE in springfield as well as any other place in Missouri, but i couldnt find any for sale. Hell, i hardly saw any driving around! (unlike now, of course) So i ended up buying mine from a dealership in texas. Hope you find one, then maybe you can do a RB swap in yours.

I also need to find some storage units close to the college, so I can have a place to work on my car and store it, because I really don't want to drive it in the winter.

Hey guys, show me some good places to go, this city is dangerously overpopulated by ricers who just want to race, but I haven't found any lots yet!

So far I've seen two Kouki's, a Zenki, a hatch, and an FC, I'm glad none of those had an aluminum wing or a fartcan. Was any of them one of you guys?

When are you guys wanting to get together? Just wondering if I've missed the event or not?

I've been working on my cars all weekend and just now getting to sit down at the computer.

I really need to get rid of some cars if you know of anyone interested.......tell them to give me a shout.

I've got to get another pickup!

OK..heres the skinny:Sep 16...Zguys meeting up around 7ish....said we're more than welcome to tag along.....take a cruise around town and end up at North Town Mall to watch all the "rods and stuff". I don't live there, so no idea where that is at or have any further info about watching the cars. I know it's not much, but if you folks want to get together then that's an opportunity.

My thought process:Either before or after said cruise....prolly before, all of us 240 people could have a little meet of our own...maybe some drifting or a nice spirited twisty road cruise...that would have to be planned by someone who lives there!

I would like to see a minimum of 5 people to make it worth my while to make the drive there...so tell your friends and mistresses or anyone you know who drives a nissan!!!!

I know it's all on pretty short notice, and if everyone would rather plan something for a later date, then let's get the suggestions rolling!

PS...meeting location for mentioned cruise will be decided by sunday or monday at the latest
