Talking 1st Gen Kills 350Z!! **on VIDEO**

I had recently installed my Autometer Cobalt gauges, and was cruising around
town at night. I was recording them with my camera, to see how they look
on film at night without the "nightshot". They look pretty good BTW. When
I change my instrument cluster to the reverse indiglow, it will have a real
nice effect.

Anyway,

Without warning, a 350Z pulls up besides me, and the driver gives me
a "you're not worthy" glance.

I am only running 12PSI on this warm and humid Miami night, but this guy
obviouly doesn't know the big "Dirk Diggler" I have under the hood of my
stock looking GSL-SE.

There's a little more traffic than I would like, so I didn't think we would have much
of a chance to play, but we made do. I remembered to turn on the camera too.

Let's just say it was fun.
I should've switched to high-boost to make it REALLY embarrasing for him.
As it is, I was accused of Cheating..

I'll let the video speak for the rest of the scenario.

The video is not 56K friendly, and is a little over 80 megs - but it IS in
high-quality video, in 16:9 widescreen format. Put up the volume
too, it came out pretty good.

As soon as Vosko gives me the link, I'll post it.

After you see it, let me know what you think of the vid.

Car looks great inside/outside. I did wonder though what the yellow light on the dash was that kept coming on/going off. I don't remember if the FB has an upshift light or not, but that is what it looked like.
