Welcome to the June 2015 edition
of the ZCSD Newsletter.
Hope you are all ready for an awesome summer. I just got back from
my annual summer vacation in Puerto Rico and I had a blast. That’s why
the newsletter is late, but it gave an
opportunity to cover the 24th Anniversary Picnic and BBQ. Thanks to
all that came specially our friends
from Fairlady Generations.
Lenny and Sheri did an awesome
job organizing this event. We had
plenty of food and a lot of awesome
cars in the car show. Congrats to all
that won. The general Meeting was
very well attended and our guess
speaker, Phillip from Bumper Doc
addressed the membership and gave
us a good overview of the services
they provide . Our Vice Pres, Ricky
Alberto is coordinating a tech. session at Bumper Doc.
June bring us the Idyllwild cruise.
This is one very beautiful scenic
route and a very Pinterest mountain
town. Lenny has arrange for parking
at Joann’s Restaurant & Bar. The
flyer is included in the newsletter.
Hope to see you at the run.

San Sebastian , Puerto Rico Car Meet
During my visit to Puerto Rico my friend Adelberto put together a farewell car meet to wish me good bye.
Thanks to all that showed up in such a short notice and the rain. Some very awesome and powerful cars
showed up.
Great photos by Felix Abraham Photography
This is my brother's pocket rocket, do not let size deceive you . This BMW 135i M
package twin turbo hangs out with the big dogs and hold s its ground. After all it is
an in line 6 engine.
So one of my former patients and friends, Hector Alvarez called me and ask me if he could show me his
370 Z. Of course I said , but little did I know it was a 40th Anniversary 370Z.
Came across this beauty in a Goat Festival, yes goat
Another beautiful Z car came my way, this one from my friends Abel Velez and his son Cristian A. Velez. They swap
their Nissan Armada for this awesome Z, soon to get an RB engine swap..
Besides my lovely family, relatives and friends these are the other reasons I go to back to Puerto Rico. My
Nissan Z32 and my 1980 Toyota Corolla 1.8 rear wheel drive, I usually drive Nissan/Datsun ,but when I
don’t, I drive this Corolla.
