    Hans and Emilie are Awsome people takes me 3 and 1/2 hour drive to them so that's 6 hours if I speed back and forth and I made that trip at least 5 or more times. That has to say something when I could just go to a local here but I know if I go there I can leave with a peace mind and no worries. Thanks for all you guys do there.

    haha, My car's practically lived there for the past 9 months and I never got pizza! wtf? lol

    Nah, GZP rules! And they actually give enough of a shit about their customers to go out of their way to help them, even when they just left work and forgot to tighten some I/C piping that couldn't be seen because it was dark outside and my flashlight is broken. hahaha

    well, while I don't have numbers yet, with the same tune as the old turbos had, it leans out at 12 psi and full throttle, so they are definitely puttin out more air flow. And yes, they are payin for themselves. I met up with some friends over turkey day weekend who seemed to think that even with a full fuel system, bigger turbos, a front mount and suspension and brake work, my car was still slow, lol. So they started talkin smack and that eventually led to a race with a basically stock 300zx TT. Raced him at 9 psi and at 100 mph I had at least 3 cars on him. So I won $100 there. Then a neon with stage 2 mopar upgrades wanted a piece, so I turned the boost up to about 11 psi and left his ass at the line. he claimed "traction problems" but still paid up another $100. So we went again, with me turnin the boost back down to 9 psi, and I still won by two car lengths (that's another $100 for me). THEN, a friend pulled up in his brand new 2010 Vette and started talkin shit, so I turned the boost up to about 13 psi and won despite runnin lean and hesitating a little bit. had around a car on him at 120.
    So I won $400 off of friends who still think my car performes like its stock. haha, you figure after the walking of the 300zx they would have realized it was modified out the ass compared to when we were in high school, but I guess some people just can't wrap their head around a 4500 lb 12 sec monster, hahaha.

    hahaha, still got a way to go before they're technically profitable, but it was nice to put a dent in their initial cost.

    maybe that could be a new slogan? "If you street race illegally..." lol

    Just another "shout out" to GZP. Emilie has been extremely helpful to this new 3000 owner. I have a LOT of issues with my car, and I've had so many (noob) questions. Emilie has answered every single one of them patiently and clearly.

    And just so I don't get in some sort of trouble here, I actually am a customer now I ordered a strut. It was not only a very reasonable price, but it was shipped immediately!

    I'll post again after I head up there, it's only 3 hours away, and that sounds like a reasonable distance to go for pizza/wings.
