Expect to pay at least $5000 for a swap, if you do it yourself.

Why would someone have an extra clip just lying around. He's been telling us that he did a swap, so then he'd have the one in this picture and one in this N/A that he always says he's boosting at 17 psi. Why would someone buy 2?

Geewiz, You don't think he'd lie to us do you? If you want the truth I think 91zxtt just owned ZERO ZEROEvan and caught him in some of his crap.
On ZtechZ hes attacting Ash Powers claming Ash stole his idea and selling it.
He's a 19 year old student with 3 cars, 2 Z's no less and buying frontend clips, plus body parts. No offence guys, but how many of you teen agers can afford this and only work part time?

Could be ZXDude90....Maybe Daddy pays his rent also cause he claims he don't live at home. If thats tha case, I was a deprived child.
Daddy can I have a couple Z's and a spare car plus a couple frontend clips just in case.

CC, he's a 19 year old who claims he has 2 Z's, a 2004 Honda, a Mechanical Engineer, works part time, lives alone, goes to school, keeps a spare front end clip in his garage, trys to pickup girls on the net with his bicycle.
His claim on ZtechZ is Ashley Powers stole his idea, which in fact has been around for years before he even had a Z and was still wearing dipers.

If you've ever been to LACR, via the 14 frwy, you passed thru acton. I can faintly here the cars running @ LACR on cool, clear mornings.

I've been thru San Felipe numerous times on my way from Ensenada to La Paz & Cabo.

I should have told you there's 4-5 San Felipe's in Mexico...I live on the Sea of Cortez...About 120 miles south of El Centro, Calif.
I was just up at LACR a few weeks ago....
You ever go over to ZtechZ? ZeroZeroEvan is giving Ashley Powers a bunch of crap over there. Claiming AshP stole his idea of a dual program ECU....Him and some other dude have attacted him in the worse way. And claiming I'm chicken cause I don't loadup and head up to Wis. and race him.
I love the way 91zxtt spoted and pointed out that he was claiming to have a TT that boosted 17# in his car, plus a extra frontend clip.
Glad we have some people with eagle eyes and spot crap like that.
I've learned one thing in life. Don't lie and you won't have to worry or remember what you said.

Next time your headed this way, give me a holler and maybe we can meetup and down a few. I'd love to meet some fellow Z'ers.
I've met some super guys on this site and Automotiveforums.
Being this is my last year racing I'd like to stay in contact with people with the same interest as me. Cars and the Z.

I'm trying to live 91zxtt's sig. last statement, "Holy ****, what a ride".

As I always say,...You can't bullsh*t a bullsh*tter. The majority of his stories never quite had all of the pieces come together. I was just waiting for him to lay out some proof. "Oh, my hard drive crashed, I don't have any pictures." He gave Gringo a bunch of crap because he didn't have a digital camera to post pictures of his Z. Claiming to do a swap, then wanting to sell it...sorry, but if you put that much work in to something, you don't turn around and sell it. Let's just let the whole 00Evan thing die. Ding, dong, the witch is dead. Let's move on.
