By the way, I pick up my car in a couple of hours. Zless is getting his new rims and is going to drop me off at Dick Scott. Look, the sun is coming out and I have the rest of the week off.

Zdayz are getting longer and less of them between the Tail of the Dragon! Mike you are more than welcome to pull up the couch in the cabin! The beer and BBQ will be flowing all week long, even midnight for some Mountain R&R! They say Big Foot Roams those back woods roads watching for Z cars to pass his way!

the springs are finally installed. i dont know how other people were doing it, but i just took out the whole damn strut assembly to get to the springs. easiest way. the car looks slammed and i have to admit, i loved hearing the sound of my car scraping bottom from front end to back end while i was pulling out of my garage.

haha 
understandable!!!
but with the Z you can notice a huge difference in feeling and control ... spring vs. coil overs!
but enjoy the springs! They make the Z look hot lowered!

anyone know who on here has a blue Z with my wheels? i saw him driving in downtown in a2 tonight when i was walking to a bar, tried to talk to him, but instead he stared me down, revved at me, then took off. i was just trying to tell him nice wheels, and that i have the same ones on my Z. anyways, thanks for revving at me, but i'm quite aware of what a vq35 sounds like

for some reason the ride feels better then with the stock springs. its not as bumpy. the scrapping should be taken care of next week when i put on the new wheels (which have been sitting in my basement since october). should raise the ride height just enough.
he did say there were 2 z's that he saw, but the one he paid attention to had a body kit on it. must of been yours since last i checked dereks didnt have one. he made sure to give me his .02 about it. "dude it looks sweet...you should get a body kit." thanks for giving him ideas. lol.
