Point is it's easy to do and doesn't cost you a thing. If it helps it helps if not you haven't lost anything

 

Just got my lug nuts in today and been trying to pick a non busy weekend for the arms install. Lug nuts are going on my DB Z's rpf-1's tomorrow, will make sure to post a pic.

 

For the last 5 days I have been putting in new energy suspension rear bushings, polishing a spare upper plenum and my strut bar, putting in chrome z tube, new brake pads and rotors, AMS coilovers, rear camber kit and toe bolts.

Been fighting with getting ride height correct in the rear, can't seem to find a sweet spot between too low and rubbing and monster truck-ish.

 

Finally pulled the trigger on the final day of the free shipping offer..
Ordered a new set of wheels varrstoen es2 matte black 19x9.5/10.5 +12
But won't be going on until I get coilovers hopefully soon since there's a big show coming up the 21st

 

put in a jwt pop charger. what a difference it made! mostly it was due to having a dirty filter though. the idle is smoother, car sounds better, feels more responsive. it's a good upgrade.

 

Before......nasty chrome lugs. I hate chrome with a passion


After

 

you need to adjust the camber, or change the offset of the wheels. if you dont change these, no matter what height you set it at you will rub when you hit a dip in the road. took me a while to get mine. stock camber, 18x9 +5 wheels with 275 tires.

i was running 18x9 0offset with 3 camber. but it still rubbed when i hit a dip. 5mm makes all the difference.

 

considering parting out, selling, and getting a 370z..................

 

didnt you just upgrade to HR from DE not to long ago?

 

about a year ago

 

ill take the v2 kit lol. i thought you had a change coming but i didn't think it would be this lol

 

not dead set on it or anything.. just one of the many crazy thoughts that go through my mind each day lol.. the new jeeps are growing on me as well but i know i'd regret getting a jeep

 

haha i was at ford today looking at the new explorers and jeep for the srt cherokee

 

The 370's are too round for me. Also, if you get a 370z it leaves almost no room for mods. You could always go back to a DE and use the extra money on a turbo and other mods. Just saying.

 

i was on a 370z craze the last couple weeks then i ordered aerosync front bumper and 06+ taillights, that should arrive this week..... hopefully they hold me off at least till winter time, unless a good deal pops up

 

ngk plugs colder temp 14$ a pop outch! great for boost

 

Better hurry up, ordering things like coilovers can take months. Mine took 6 weeks to get in.

 

I wouldn't bother. 370 getting ready to be the older model anyways in a year or two. Plus they ugly as fudge. I would just sell and save and get the new Z. Actually, I'd get domestic. Bigger displacement, easy HP, lower costing parts. G/f brother put $3k into a '03 cobra and pulls 548whp. FML.

 

Thezride--
Try Soho in Charlotte. Think they're the lowest price I've found. Think about $40ish a set for 1-step colder. how many miles you getting out of yours BTW??

 

I've been thinking this for quite some time... At least you have an 08, I say keep it! Your Z is coming together so nicely
