Just finished installing SPL solid diff bushings sorry for unfocused pic... Was going to make a video on removing and installing, but removal of the rear subframe bushing turned sloppy and a bit of improv so vid is scrapped lol.

Finally had a nice day without rain so I could give my car a quick wash before coming into work tonight. Pic was from iphone, so its not that great but man the car looks great at night under the parking lot light. I did a look back and decided to take the pic....

sorry to here. pressure wasshers are for getting mud off a beat up truck..not washing sprts cars. and its like a sand blaster to your clear coat. ur lucky it didnt put hail dents on your door.
also avoid drive thru car washes..imagine washing your car by bashing it as hard as u can with a wet mop to get it clean.

Picked up hotchkis sways, SPL diff bushings, new poly trans mount, Kenwood in dash Nav, new speakers, and traded my factory diff for a nismo lsd... next week will be fun putting it all in.

Haven't really drove it enough to write a good impression of it, but I can definitely feel less slop in the rear when I floor it from a stop. I can also hear more gear whine through out the whole range, but honestly nothing more than 15% louder TOPS. Plus if you have aftermarket exhaust, you really gotta listen for it. I don't think anyone would notice it unless they knew how their car sounded before. Overall I'm pleased, but I would definitely get a machinist to press out the bushings if I had to do it all over again haha. phew...

Z got keyed last week. A fellow car enthusiast from my alma mater reached out to me when he heard what happened; he polished all of the marks out of my paint earlier tonight free-of-charge and even polished my headlights to brand new condition. Good people are still out there.
Haters can DIAF
Looks good, I tried to wrap mine too but I didn't like the way it came out so I painted it with a friend of mine piano black using Duplicolor. Came out great I think.

I have a huge scratch on my roof from back when I didn't know what I was doing and I took it to one of those drive-thru washes

Nice. Yeah I'm planning on keeping the stock intake with K&N drop-ins for a while so I finally bought these from Z1 (there were out of the black color for months).
First time ordering from Z1, definitely won't be a last. Customer service is second-to-none.
