The only susp mods i have are Tein S tech springs, hotchkis f/r sways and GT spec f/r braces
Nothing else planned. I'm happy with my setup. I don't want to be extreme about it. All I need are a set of good tires.

Damn you guys. My Z is still out of commission. I just took the car cover off today, so now she gets to see sunlight. I also cleaned the garage a bit, but it's no where near what I want for a clean garage.

BTW, I'm going to sell my cats. Yeah, the soft furry kind. Anyone interested? I'll post up the link to craigslist in a little bit.

Which casino? I keep hearing about people who win money there, but I'm always afraid to go and lose it. My luck sucks.

Yeah, but how much did you spend? That's a good day for me if I win that much.

Saw a nice black Z today in Shakopee. It had a body kit on it with a spoiler. Anyone on here by chance? I was in my blue Z headed in the opposite direction.

Had the Z out again last night man was it nice out. Had sushi for the first time and loved it. My wife signed me up to work security most of the day at some big Omaha multiples garage sale. I came home and took a nap then worked out in the back yard for about 3 hours. Our yard is in pretty ruff shape from the previous owners, its going to take some work but it will give me something else to do. We just got back from seeing Taken it was pretty good. Oh and I got the Pink Floyd reference above so its all good.

Leave it unpainted. I like the contrast of the color with the rest of the car.

I am getting all the carbon fiber parts, sanded then re-cleared with 3 coats of good clear. shouldn't yellow and the imperfections should buff away.
