thank you sir. . .assembly will start at 5pm. . .i haven't done the Z before, i'm sure it's simple but is there anything that i need to be aware of while taking the old ones off that someone might want to give advice about. . .

There is a pretty good DIY on suspension floating around somewhere...
I ordered my springs and camber monday so I'll tackle mine when I go home for my b-day next weekend.

on the front take the middle bolt on the upper a arm off to push the LCA further down to get the strut in and out
also remove the endlink. You may want to do both fronts at the same time, i had trouble getting my endlink back on in the front when doing one side at a time
that way you wont need a spring compressor either
rear is easier, just be careful not to overtorque those stock little bolts welded on to the frame

It's quiet with stock cats and sounds clean. Louder with test pipes but not ridiculous like most. If you want it, give me a holler.
