Yea man I love it so far def worth the money. I should have took some good shots while it was on the lift but forgot to. @run I'm debating it. I know it looks great with that exhaust but I just can't bring myself to ruin a perfect back bumper in case later down the road I ever want to sell it.

Just ordered some things this week to help her get up and go. GTM stage 2 tuner TT kit, injectors, fuel pump, 25 row oil cooler, spark plugs, 3 Defi gauges, Hotchkis Sway bars, Circuit Sport End links, new HPS brake pads (down grading from HP Plus, too harsh), and some more Super Blue fluid to help bleed the brake lines a little more.

Still have the Spec twin disk clutch and 3 inch exhaust left to go, but she should be happy these will be waiting to go on her.

Winter's almost here so added Pirelli PZero Nero high performance all season tires to the stock wheels I PlastiDip'ed recently. A little came off from the tire machine, so I may peel ti off and repaint when I add the spacers back onto the car. I like the way the car looks. Going to PDip the door handles next.

And such a good feeling getting these new shoes after driving a week on a stupid spare.

I drove nearly 500 miles to SoCal yesterday
Averaged nearly 27 mpg - am I driving a hybrid Z or what? No, but all highway driving with a complete oil change earlier in the week really helped!

thanks br0.. yeah ive thought about it but i think the silver door handles kinda flow well with the silver car. as of recent i've kinda of wanted to get some different wheels.. even though i just got these.. i want something that pops a little more. was thinking gold w/ polished lip xxr 521s, 18x10 all around? not sure how gold would look on this very light light silver.

next week, spc camber arms, 10mm spacer rear, 5mm spacer front, and alignment will be done then getting a proper photoshoot.. so stay tuned, lol.

Agreed! Black handles would look great on yours.

i kind of want a polished lip with the gold face. plus doesn't powdercoating add a stupid amount of weight? could be wrong, idk. and even the silver miros wouldn't have popped like i wanted them too.
