calgary altima's unite

[Chinaman]

i am running some Dunlop Winter Sport M3. they were pretty cheap. only about 130 a piece.just got them mounted on my stock wheels. i seen you i think driving on barlow the other day. somewhere in the south. car is looking good man

[ESP]

Nice.

I don't think that was me that you saw...I haven't been on Barlow in at least two years now! haha!

[Calgary35SE]

Might have been me, im down around there all the time. work in ogden. so whens the meet happening???

[ESP]

Well...I'm heading out to Red Deer to shoot a pair of blonde twins for a calendar cover this weekend, so I guess I'm out...

[LegendRacer]

blonde twins....need an assistant that day by any chance?

[ESP]

LOL! I was wondering if someone was going to jump on that!

[Miss_Lanaya]

Hey ESP....is your intake the same as the one thats on sale in that other thread?? Fujita right?

[ESP]

Hey ESP....is your intake the same as the one thats on sale in that other thread?? Fujita right?

Yup yup! That's the one! Only I don't think that company offers powdercoating so silver is the only colour option you've got.

If RacingLine comes out with their carbon fiber intake, I'll be selling my black Fujita for about that price......

[fiftytseng]

i'll buy it

and the CMS guy hasn't messaged me back about winter tire packages in 17'' yet... hopefully soon!

[Miss_Lanaya]

Thanks ...... ARRRR im so broke from the projo GB but I loved the way that intake sounded on your car, maybe I'll have to charge it

And it looks like fiftyseng already jumped on your "future offer" darnit!!

[fiftytseng]

haha i'm such an ***

[ESP]

Play nice kids...

Lanaya, my Fujita wouldn't have worked in your car anyway since you've got the CVT...

Fifty, just keep trying to get a quote on those tires! Are you serious about buying my Fujita? I eMailed RacingLine last night about whether or not they're following up on the thread they started. If they are, I'll hold on the Fujita for you!

[LegendRacer]

i thought the fujita works for both CVT and the MT6

maybe its different for the 2.5?

[fiftytseng]

yes i'm serious about buying your intake now i hope racingline comes up with something for you!

There's so much I want for my car, the only problem is money, so whereever I can save moeny i will!

[ESP]

Hey everyone! I'm hitting Race City Speedway tonight for a photoshoot with some G6 buddies of mine and perhaps for some racing as well...this might very well be the last weekend the drag strip is open since it's getting so freakin' cold out there!

We're meeting there at 7pm-ish. Drop me a line if anyone's interested!

[fiftytseng]

i wonder what happened with the racingline intake

[ESP]

Oh, didn't I tell you?They're still in development right now...it probably won't be out until X-Mas. After that, they'll come out with the CF version which I'm jumping all over.

[fiftytseng]

oh really? i think i might jump on that canadian fujita sale. cause i'm dying for it to roar like a lion haha

[fiftytseng]

I'm reviving this thread for one purpose only. Actually, two purposes. This dumping of snow we got today really sucks, I got stuck so many times

AND

It's been a long time since the Calgary members talked haha. How is everyone doing?

[LegendRacer]

I already gave my car back to the stealership and got a rx8

so fun to drive in the snow with this car...

[fiftytseng]

oh really?! when did you do that?nice car, its pretty fun to drive, but i still love my coupe!

[ESP]

I HATE THIS CAR IN THE SNOW!!!

...more to the point, I hate driving my lowered car in the snow on tires that are almost an inch in diameter smaller than stock. This morning I got stuck, wedged up on the icy pilings between two truck tire tracks...everytime I go over less-than-traveled roads I can hear crap banging the underside of the car...

...I think it's time to get taller tires! haha

[fiftytseng]

I'm still on the stockies, trust me that has to be the worst. It makes me kind of happy that my springs are STILL sitting in my garage though. But I'm definately going to purchase some winter tires today cause I have this feeling this snow will be around for a while At least its finally decent conditions to get some snowboarding in.

[LegendRacer]

my rx8 handles better in snow then the altima...no joke

but then again i have winter tires on my rx8 vs stock tires on the altima

and yesterday...man..my car was shoveling snow as i drove...i can hear the snow scraping the bottom of my car

good thing its soft snow

[DAAN.]

Just purchased a coupe today

Are there any meets planned soon ?

Hey Legend, did you trade your can to Stadium Nissan by any chance?I tried to get some winter tires today, but everywhere I checked was sold out

Just purchased a coupe todayAre there any meets planned soon ?

Not when its this cold out haha, I'm down for one once this snow is gone!

[LegendRacer]

i still have winter tires from my altima...

they are hankooks icebear w300, really good traction and pretty much brand new

bought it 1 month before nissan decided to buy my car back.

interested in buying it?

[fiftytseng]

very! how much?

[fiftytseng]

nevermind, i found myself a set, michelin x ice

[LegendRacer]

x-ice is really good, i have it on my rx8 right now

but i need to sell these other sets of tires since it wont fit my rx8's stockies
