During my lunch break tried polishing up the pipes again and washed down other parts of the engine.

Still looks good.

I think I'm going to pull the Z out and take pics after I just washed and waxed it yesterday.

Blue tint on outdoor pictures normally means it's using white balance designed for indoors, tungsten/fluorescent lighting.

Thanks! Yeah, I'm trying to keep it stockish /clean but still have that "muscled out" look.


Redline, I had my fenders rolled but probably the worst roll job someone could have done. Looking into renting one of those things and doing it myself. My inside tab needs to be bend back more, still rubbing on 275s with 10" stock wheels on 15mm spacers. Had to send the spacers back.

Usually you hear a bad wheel bearing? You didn't hear a constant sound?

Well, ever since I had this rear end put in, it whines because the gears weren't set up just right by whoever installed them in the pumpkin the first time... and combined with how loud my exhaust is its near impossible to hear anything in my car. Lol.

All the other stuff on your car must be pretty loud, cause bad wheel bearings are not hard to hear.

Went to the shop and got to look at all the progress the guys at CIN Motorsports have been making on my z!

installed my coilover and camber kits
been playing around with the height and went to get an alignment but they were only able to do the rears because it was late and weren't going to have much time to do the fronts.
now this is what ive been thinking about all day.. should i raise it a bit more? looking for your guys opinions. im thinking if i raise it i might as well raise it in the a.m. and then get the alignments done again on the rear along with the front. or should i leave it where it sits now? ive scraped twice (one pretty bad one but no damage) it looks pretty good now but i like driving a bit spirited sometimes..

SPECS: 245-35-19, 275-35-19
front camber is way off =/

^ That looks great! Can't tell you how much of an improvement the new wheels made over the previous set I also like the height
