Great garage.

If you keep all the cars in 1 place, you could have a museum of pure unadulterated horsepower. I would pay an entry fee.

Has anyone said to you that the ISF is like a 4 door GTR? A friend of mine said that to me and I can kinda see where he's coming from.

SIG fan, good man. Very reliable weapons. But honestly, I'm more worried about the Yorky. Those little bassterds are relentless. My family had one for a long time. I've seen it run off 2 German Shepards at the same time. No lie.

Is water usage that strict in Texas? wow!


Nice GTR - what exhaust is on that car or did you buy it like that? Year?

This car when it first came out I had no interest in it but slowly it has grown on me both in looks and attraction. My main dislike was the tranny but now that my wife needs to be able to drive the car sometimes the auto becomes more attractive.

Used prices have come down quite a bit on these cars, maybe I might try one someday

What about the Q5 for a DD in background?

Depends on where you are. West Texas is completely f'd, while north-central Texas is perfectly fine.

It's not as bad as last year. I remember at some point last summer, any and all lawn watering in and around Austin was completey cut off. I believe rice farmers down near Houston have been cut off completely this year though.

Check out this link, if you're curious. I use it for work.

Volk VR.G2 which is ideally like TE37, but not.

Haha my 2 pound yorkie wouldn't harm anybody or anything. She's more worried about our 1 month old baby being held by friends.

2009 GTR with 10K miles, the is a Amuse Titanium as well as an Amuse Midpipe. I have an amuse on white S2000 and it sounds great.

Water useage is not a problem here in Houston, TX yet.

Can't daily drive the Q5 cause it's my wife, but it's going to get some S-Line wheels put on, APR chip and intake. Get a little extra torque.

S4, get the GT-R, the tranny is nothing to worry about unless you're making over 700awhp and launching the car. Other than that if you drive the car like your S2000, IS-F, and NSX you shouldn't have any problems. I've kept up with you for years on s2ki.com. I have had 3 S2000's too and like you I like em CLEAN! PM me if you want I can give you an idea on GTR pricing for each year. I own a dealership, helps on buying/selling cars.
