Oh, it only starts tomorrow?

I'll vote, just because you guys have the balls to drive those cars in the shitty streets of Winnipeg. :lol

Thanks!! Appreciate it! Don't forget you can vote once every 24 hours until next Monday.

Yeah, this round starts tomorrow at 9am CST. This is the final round before SEMA. Luckily, we're both on different sides of the ladder, so we can both end up at SEMA.

Honestly this competition is so annoying, it gets so old seeing the posts plastered all over all my FB groups, instagram and now on RS about voting for this dude or that dude.

Al, I have commented on your car previously on VQ Family, its a unique ride, the paint, some of the body work (like the gas cap delete), its spot on. I'm not a huge fan of the over fender trend these days, but whatever.

This is all besides the point though, what bothers me most about this contest is the fact that it is just one huge popularity contest. This isn't supposed to be a dig at your car, but there was two other vehicles specifically representing the Nissan/Infiniti family that deserved the top spots way more than you or Brian. The two vehicles would be that of Randy Riggs and Alf's Blue Waffle G35:

Yet neither of these cars even cleared the top 8.

With that said I think this contest is a broken system which just further promotes the insta-fame mentality of our current car society at the detriment of well built, well rounded, and beautifully hand crafted cars.

So no long story short I won't be voting for you or your friend, nor will I be voting for the other two guys.

online voting being a popularity contest...OMG WHO KNEW?!
no one had problems voting for past members when they needed our support. Chef vlogs, doritos contest etc. Guess what, those were popularity contests too. Most of these voting systems aren't merit based. If your gripe was more about OP having only recently signed up an RS account days/week ago and not a regular here then yeah I can understand. Otherwise, no real need to stink in someone's thread when they're asking for support from fellow car guys.

Kappa meme just being meme. he likes to shit his zero cents (because rounded down) in all threads. Kappa

I agree with you 100% about the contest being a huge popularity contest. Unfortunately it's not about the car, it's about who can whore themselves for more votes.

I am well aware of Alfred and Randy's cars, they are both immaculate and well deserving of the win, but they both put in very little effort into the contest which is why they didn't advance. Why? Probably because they aren't that motivated to get to SEMA with the contest because they have other means to get to SEMA. I know Randy is going to SEMA with a sponsor.

I don't have that option, I don't have big ticket sponsors or someone willing to pay my way to SEMA, hence why I am in this contest...

So, voting opens in an hour. You can vote once every 24 hours. Every vote is greatly appreciated!

Here is what you're voting for.

- 407 hp (I've modified more since, just haven't made it back to the dyno)
- 295/30 front tires, 305/30 rear tires
- DAILY DRIVER
- Airlift / Accuair Suspension
- Every single body panel has been modified/changed except the roof, doors and A-pillars.

I had major involvement in every aspect of the car. From doing all the wiring and engine bay tucking myself, to doing all the fiberglassing myself, to designing the paint color and masking the car for paint.

I've got over 1000 hours in the engine bay, body work, and paint. This car wasn't just dropped off at a shop then picked up finished like some other "builds".

Every piece of the flare kit has been cut up and modified, so has the rear bumper. The rear wing was made from scratch. You'd be hard pressed to look anywhere on the car and find stuff that isn't one of one.

If I sound like a salesman, well, it's because I am. I need to sell this car to you, so you vote for me in this competition!

EVERY SINGLE VOTE IS GREATLY APPRECIATED. I know most of us car guys all dream of going to SEMA, I have for years. Well, this is my chance!

Alex's BRZ makes I believe around 350hp at the wheels. I've see the car drag raced, road raced, drifted, etc. He has the only car left in the competition that's actually seen a track! (I just finished mine late July, worked the kinks out over the last two months, plan to drag race it at a minimum next year).



By the way, if you want to know all of the nitty gritty details on the BRZ build, he has an extremely detailed build journal that he started when ne got it in Fall of 2013. It's boosted, on bags, full body mods, full interior, and all tasteful! It also has some rare high end parts on it as well that some of you might appreciate (Todoroki fenders, Edirb seats, Prova, DAMD, etc etc)

Doing my best to keep people like you and Drow entertained:

With that said, I prefer Al's car over the other 350z by a mile, and I would rather see a fellow canadian boy make it down to SEMA rather than someone else. And atleast he was honest about this whole thing, so I won't hold the contest format against you Al, I'll vote for you whenever I remember.

EDIT: Just logged on to vote and its still not open. There's also some weird formatting issues on your page. Might want to contact PASMAG.

IMO nothing is all too special about the two cars. The BRZ looks pretty good. But the 350 is just beyond tasteful, too much going on.

Why is it that last years champ was from winnipeg and 3 out of 4 contestants left for this year is from winnipeg?

edit: oh wait, i just rehashed what meme said. lol

Meme405 has a good point, next thing you know we have an RX-8 with and R8 side blade vinyl on the front page of Honda-Tech (I know, don't ask)

I like the BRZ.

For the 350Z, you're matched against...another 350Z.

I like the other one more, but nice work anyways.

send him to SEMA

That Matte Grey one is so much nicer than the OP one!

I am STILL waiting to see pics of this at the show. I left before i got a chance. At the registration point he was in front of me. I asked the show workers "is this guy really entering this car?" They laughed and said "i know.." shrugging.

2 awesome Z builds in this battle. To pick a winner all I do is ask myself which one I would want to drive more.......

Berz out.

Thanks homie :tears:

So, where exactly do you guys drive these cars in Winnipeg? I can't imagine going up Pembina or Kenaston in either of these cars, and those are the good roads :X

I like the other z better

I agree with you
Brz looks well done.
350z meh to busy and the flares are not to my liking imho

As they say to each is own.

Good Luck BRZ

These guys are trying hard to get votes. Just saw a post from accuair on Instagram for that red 350z

any sweet drifting, drag launch, road racing pics? that would really boost up the popularity, nothings cooler than a photo of a car in action!
