Default Hello from Arizona

Hi everyone. First I have to say that there is some amazing information on this forum and I truly enjoy how everyone is willing to help one another, bravo all. Now a little about the car. Well I have had a lot of cars in a short time. On I loved the most (until now) was a 03 track edition 350z. Now I have a 1999 Arctic White C5 hard top, 6 spd with the torch red leather interior ( I hate leather.. its hot ). The C5 came with 101k on it. I have performed general maintenance (OIL change, new sparkplugs and had to buy new back tires). Tomorrow I'm doing the transmission, diff fluids and a good old gm top end cleaner. Also I'm installing a couple performance parts. Got a FAST LSX multi-piece component intake manifold, dual-filter intake, and thinking of getting a nice exhaust to go with everything. Well theres a little about the car. As for myself Im young, enjoy racing in my track car I built, was in the military at one point, need more money and don't have enough time in the day to do everything I want to. See you all on the Forums.
