Ok, so here's the official report.
The JWT Clutch I personally find to be phenominal. No, it's not going to be everyone's bad. It's extremely stiff but incredibly responsive. It's labled as "Street/Track" and I can totally see why. Anything more than this clutch would be a pure on/off switch. The throw is deep in the clutch on the return. Again, I like it but not everyone will. When I'm back in LR I'll let you guys drive and see what your verdict is.

I really like Saigon Cuisine on Cantrell, on the end of the Stein Mart parking lot. I've been going there a long time and its been very consistent.. and good... and very reasonable.
I could live on 'T23' (I think), spicy basil noodle /w chicken. mmmmmm..
There are alot of newer places I havent tried yet, so I cant comment on those.

haha, crowbar?!
thats a wide open question.. where do you want ro be? how large? schools important? Want new construction with small yard? older home to fix up? want a view?
I got my first home in the Hall High area. Which is not far from Brad. His area is nice too, but it can be tricky over there. Brad got lucky with a newly renovated place. Hall High has lots of good prices on 1700-ish sq ft houses that were built in the late 60s, which is actually a good thing. Most are built quite well. Much better than some of the mid 80s houses in WLR. That Cammack area is usually $$$$$ or needs $$$$ of work. However, both the Hall High area and Cammack are really close to everything. Now that I'm in West Little Rock, there's few parks around.. and no walking to anything, restaurants or grocery stores. Also, most of WLR is not bike friendly like some of Cammack (and to a lesser degree Hall High - much more thru traffic).
If you long for that Brodie Creek or Woodslands edge area, keep a keen eye out of construction or lot issues. I saw alot of "WTF?!" stuff out there when we were looking. If you got for any place near the river (LR side or maumelle), watch for soil/foundation issues.
Thats the just highlights of the last few years of my house shopping.

Davidb takin the house purchase plunge?! Awesome man! Congrats on the decision! I hope everything goes smooth with it!
Adam you feeling any better? Hope so man!
Had a ? guys. I'm looking into some suspension parts for the Z and was wondering if anyone could point me in a good spring direction. I'm not looking for a slammed to the ground can't clear a pebble in the road heighth but maybe like a 3/4 in or so drop. Don't want to have to get into cambers and a-arms and the such. I've looked into coils but am unsure if I would take enough advantage of them to justify the cost of a good set. Any thoughts?

hotchkis kit usually doesnt need any addtnl part (arms,etc.)mild drop but is noticeable and def is noticeable on the handling portion, good solid kit if you get the whole thing w/sways and springs. brad and i both have the kit and are pleased w/it.
