I have an idea for an epic video, but wanted to test the feasibility of a garage burnout first (part of the video)... Sketchy doing it in such a small place.

Haha yeah me too. God the video idea I have is epic, I just need to ensure the front won't slip like that somehow... I thought about wheel chocks but part of the movie is moving forward once the garage door opens mid-burnout so they'll be in the way. Ugh, first world problems.

After more than a week of horrible low speed brake squealing and trying every solution possible, finally got down to resurfacing the rotors (they sat around for over 6 months before I purchased them) and my Z no longer sounds like a '94 Crown Victoria that has never had a brake change

Changed out the clutch and brake fluid. Adjusted the struts one click to soften up the ride with the 19s back on.
