Hey guys, just a couple of thoughts I wanted to share with the MI members here.

1. I looked for it but, is there a FB group for MI 240sx owners? If not we should make one - or I will. Let me know if there's one or you think it's unnecessary.

2. I'm intending to create a thread to make a list of tuner shops/places to go to source parts (Example: S&G imports for brake components, Murray's - there's one that's still called that here in MI, and etc..) Please drop a line or two where do you usually go for local spots. The reason being, I usually go to Touge Factory in IL for parts, and might go there for Power FC tuning in the near future, but I wanted to know if anyone goes else where near by.

Thanks!

I don't think I've seen a 240sx MI group. Im pretty sure there is a cobalt group lol i don't see why we don't have one. but about the tuner shops ect. i am onboard for that. I've been curious to see if michigan has any good shops for tuners.

I will look into it more when I have time, or will create one later. I'm still on the fence on this one.

on another note, check out the Michigan Sources Thread I just created

I'm about to make a group. Did we want it to be just a s chassis group or should it be open to other Nissan models as well?

I'm down for that FB group idea. Let's make it a 240sx group, and i'm sure everybody and their mothers will bring along some Z's and Quest's with them

I was born in Ann Arbor but, that was 50 years ago...For better or worse, I consider myself a
Californian now after being out here for some 4 decades. I still am grateful for my roots and Mid western sensibility though...

Actually pretty cool to start a group like this. hopefully it will grow and grow where we could have meets or whatever. lol maybe someday. But does anyone have driveway space around farmington/livonia? My 240 is getting kicked out of the garage on march 7th and have a tiny driveway lol. It would only be until it warmer and potholes are fixed.

If you're on the fence or haven't done a drift day before, come to this event. It's super fun and AutoCity is a great place to learn.
