Noted... based on the demand on this site, it doesn't look like I'd have trouble selling them. Brembo kits are sold within an hour or two of being posted here.

cleanddong, there's a place called "Hell, Michigan". A few members went last year and they had a blast. I've personally never been but I want to.

We should plan another Hell Run soon. But instead, we should make it a bigger Z/G group.

Would May 8th/9th be too soon to plan for everyone? That'll give me a good chance to test out the new pads

And regarding mod party, sorry AJ, May 1st was the best time since a few of us have a track day May 13th so it'll give us some time to bed in the new pads still.

Yes, 6-speed manual... Z51 is bigger cross drilled rotors, bigger brakes, different gearing on the transmission, different suspension, and I think oil cooler and power steering cooler... 3LT is basically heads-up display, heated seats, power top and 6 disc changer. No nav -- that's about the only option it doesn't have.

It should be dropped off at my house tomorrow. Can't wait!!!

Hey Ryan, name is Rob. Nice to meet you. Nice looking Z you got there, I was gonna get the Rota Torque's but Steve (the_kinn) got them before me so that stopped me lol.

To all the new guys, we have a install party coming up May 1st at a fellow member Brian's house (Phreakdout) He lives in ypsilanti, but it'll be a full day of install parts, eating food, and maybe playing a little forza or halo on his humungo HD projection screen.

oh, and Maher you should bring that bad boy to the install party, especially since we all haven't seen you for a couple years man!

Hey there guys! After 8 trips to China, this is the first time I am able to sign on to My350Z from the mainland. I assumed the Chinese Government restricted it for some reason.

The install party is still targeted for Saturday, May 1st. Those who would like to attend, PM me and I will send you the address. (Some of you already know where I live so no PM is needed.) I don't want to post my addy on here.

I will be mostly offline till I get back on Sunday, April 25th.

Welcome to the community Ryan & Andy. Feel free to come out and meet some of the guys. Look forward to seeing folks again.

So i decided to put on the Bilstein coilovers today, it took all afternoon but the results are well worth it. I could not be more happy with ride height and improved handling.

I am all the way down in the back and have about 3/4" to go in the front.





I am running a lot of neg camber in the back until I can get my fenders rolled then I will get an alignment.





I can fit one finger between the fender and the tire in the front and back.









What do you think?
