Owen Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 WTF??? I can't post in the Announcements forum??? excerpt from another of my posts today... "I need to add a disclaimer to every picture I post of my dash...and a sticker on my dash for car shows. "NO, It isn't blinding." Some dumbfux at tt.net "oh, it'll blind you, it'll get you in an accident!" I promptly told them it wasn't going to do either and ended by saying "at least I have SKILLS". Some of those guys are cool and do awesome work, the rest are like monkeys who would be totally lost if a part wasn't a complete bolt-on! Damn rich punks... Time for a new slogan... HybridZ Rules, We Make It Fit!" Or how about, "Your Bolt On Mods Don't Impress Me"? Owen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CruxGNZ Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 "I thought of this, then made it. What did you do?" "Nobody made it, so I did" "Hybrid Z, where imagination meets engineering." I like this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EZ-E Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I like your last one there Matt, "Hybrid Z, where imagination meets engineering." Now that really sounds good!!! I was thinking of one like "Hybrid Z, where true power meets the road." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueovalz Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 I feel your pain Owen. It seems the folks that don't have the "purchased" showcars are the folks most impressed with what we do as a whole, and that's perfectly fine with me. When I get the thumbs-up from the 40 year old mother driving the pickup truck passing the Z (yes, I do get passed from time to time), or from the bearded biker, that means more to me than bling bling Bob and his 350Z which spends more time in the shop having stuff bolted on than it does on the road. Anytime I get into a discussion like this, I simply ask them to show me the nails (fingernails). That tells the whole story. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WickedWild Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 Nothing simply bolts on to this car anymore. Just about every part had to be modified to fit. After watching my bother and his Honda frends work for a bit and get fustrated becase something didn't fit just right. I handed them and angle grinder. Their eyes got real big and all they wanted to do was send it back because it didn't fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cygnusx1 Posted January 5, 2006 Share Posted January 5, 2006 HybridZ - "Does THIS void my warranty?" Why don't we mold an official "HybridZ" chrome emblem? It could be a new "brand" of car kinda like Scarab did way back when. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OBX, XS Engineering, SS Autochrome are notorious for parts that either don't quite fit or the welds will break right away. Owen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And with the new duplicolor etc paints out for metallics, easier to do your self. Time to hit Toy R Us for that magnetic alphabet set!
