That's how I killed my Z. Dumb move after a long, hot drive home from Amarillo to Albuquerque. I learned my lesson but it still hurts a little every time I think of it. Glad you're ok.

August 6th is the only car meet I enjoy attending. This year I drove 3hr to Edmonton for the sole purpose of seeing cars that weren't bone stock with a straight pipe.

Also nice. Maybe nicer than the twin, depending on priorities. I miss my Z but the FRS does everything better, except actually be a 240Z.

A VIN swap is only illegal if you're caught!

You can run the exhaust into the cab and have close to a first year Z.
