On the off chance that your a beyond member I thought Id let ya know that your car is leaking gas out the exhaust like crazy. I was behind you today right before you crossed 36th street to go into the marlborough mall parking lot around 2pm. You were side by side with a 300zx right before, just behind golds gym. When you left the light there was a reallllllly bad gas smell and you left a trail about 30ft long of fluid coming from your exhaust.

see i thought of water since it was brutal in the NE last night, but the smell of gas was extreme.

I could be wrong but i figured id offer a heads up in case its something serious, really smelt like gas

There is no way for fuel to last from the injectors to the tail pipe.. He's probably just running very rich and condensation from the exhaust system.

The gas would have to be injected and then flow through his exhaust ports and down the headers etc.. etc.. it's impossible.

not really, we used to stick spark plugs at the end of our tail pipes back on the farm for kicks to ignite the unburned gas and have flames shoot out the tail pipe. mind you, this was on early '80s cars with V8 engines, can't comment on if this would work with newer imports....

That gas was vapor, not liquid.

Im the owner of the 3000gt lol. I checked if anything was leaking from the exhaust. I didnt smell any gas or see any thing come out. I got a mecanic to take a look at it to he said he looks fine. I duno but thnx for the heads up anyways.

Anyways when did you see all that stuff come out. When I sped up a bit?
