Oh you misunderstand my friend. I'm shooting for the "See...... us Z guys need a lot of setups for different scenarios"

Not sure how that'll go over.....

I donno I was pretty excited when I rid my life of these.




But now I find myself hoarding other parts that will most likely never get used again...

Like my extra driveshaft, 2 spare differentials, extra computer, extra set of pedals, etc etc etc

On a side note im hoping to make a scrap metal run today if I can convince myself that I won't ever need the extra sheet metal.

Default EBC kit rotor and pads all around



Just completed installing these!

Couldn't have finished this project without autozones 3 jaw puller. Makes popping off rotors ratchet.

Just have to torque down the spacers to specifications and bolt on wheels.

This job has taken me on and off two days.

I'll say it again in a different way....

I'm so glad I live 3,132 miles away. You have a nice neighborhood but for all the noise.

What I did today~
SPC toe bolts installed
SPC rear camber arms installed
Circuit Sports lock out kit installed
Removed slight surface rust on rear top hats and rear shock towers
Painted part of the exhaust to hide some ugly welds

I need to install kinetix control arms and whiteline bushings in the front to finish my suspension and then i'm ready for an alignment to get rid of the stupid amount of camber I currently have.
