Just a couple from ZdayZ this year.
I will be changing the wheel setup. (Get away from the heavy blingy 20"). Tires are on the way and I will be powdercoating a set of 19" wheels instead.
These were taken on the Dragon during ZdayZ. The hazmat suit was a gag just for Killboy.com

I just ordered BC Racing Coilovers last week, I read alot of reviews and I thought they were a nice set. From what I have read they were a step up from the tein coilovers so we shall see....

Phreakdout, I'd love to do a dragon run with you this year if you make it down again. Maybe we can get a group of verts to make a run together?
Speedbyu, nice purchase. Hope you get a lot of enjoyment out of her. Also, I really like those wheels.

Thanks, the last owner put them on as well as different tail lights. I am think about a Borla exhaust and maybe cold air induction like K&N. Like to find a used Borla but that is probably wishful thinking.

Also, I like the K&N design. The JWT popcharger seems to be a popular intake choice because of the sound, but the best performing for our pre-2006 cars seems to be an upgrade to the 06 stock intake (believe it or not).
Not sure what you're doing next May, but I'd love to see you at ZDayz this year. It's something you don't want to miss if you're a Z owner. www.zdayz.com

Been a gradual process and I'm running out of things I want to do, though I'll probably have to replace the clutch with something with more clamping force next year. She's put away for the winter now and will probably have to wait until easter...

Nice.
I think that I'd like it even more if the top portion of the sideskirts and rear bumper were silver and just the bottom "lip" portion of each was black. IMO, it would flow a little better with the line of the black lip up front. However, I have a Silverstone myself and I'm aware of how difficult it is to get a perfect paint match on new pieces.

I'll bite on the eye candy!
Maybe a Seibon CF trunk next. Still enjoying the body style so no kit on the horizon. Vortech V3 winter project installation was fun this summer. Driving around with 450+ hp makes you see life differently. One of these days I'll get around to scraping off the rust proofing treatment from various spots around the strut towers.

Ah, they'll take anyone around here. I'm on here all the time trying to DIY and pretty active in the local events, so I offered to help them out. As much as this site has done for me and saved me money on DIY projects for my Z, I figured doing some cleanup and monitoring of threads on here was the least I could do to give back.
