Haha good one. I will go out there hopefully if I can fix my front camber issue. It's absolutely terrible. Here's the thread:
https://my350z.com/forum/brakes-and-...ml#post9485767

Basic overview, my front camber is at -4.2 and even though I'm somewhat low it's not acceptable to me at all. I have stock arms but why would they even allow this much camber? More info is in the thread.

And Jake I'm not sure if my setup is fit for AutoX lol. I'm saving up tires for Mineral Wells while on a college budget. But MAYBE I'll go out there for fun. Stretched tires + AutoX = not so much contact patch, and worse times.


EDIT: If I'm not working I'll go out with my friend who owns a miata. It looks fun. But I work at GNC you know how those holiday hours are...

I want to go single so bad ): thanks for the muffler shop though although I probably wont be needing it anymore. I'm just saving up to buy a single soon. I love the look.

Yeah I know I'll need new arms. Im going to suck it up and buy some kinetix arms Ive read some good reviews. And I'll probably change my bushings while I'm down there already.

Btw about raising it, I'm just going to pull my fenders soon so I can run around -2.8 or so camber up front and -1.8 in the rear with some meatier tires all the way around. I like the height I'm at I don't really scrape much lol. Slammed with function! Haha.

Ha that's what I've been doing lol. Kinda nice being in the boonies cuz if I wanna go hunting it's just a 10 minute drive lol. My bosses also run a deer hunting outfit here during deer season so we have a lot of hunters up here this time of year and when we have down time or are bored we go blow away some birdies

Pat, go Deer hunting and bring me some deer jerky ! I buy jerky from a guy at work every year...he has a great guy that makes some awesome deer jerky.

As far as bird hunting....I will go any where to get some pheasant or Quail....Love them little bastards !

I can't get a deer tag this year. They have a pool every May for non residents to get tags and that's the only time you can get them I had to get an apprentice hunting license since I haven't had a chance to take a hunters safety course yet so I can't even hunt by myself. I have to be with a licensed hunter 18 or over to go hunting at anytime.

Hey guys,

I have a for sale thread in the marketplace... just giving y'all a heads up here.

I have some Z wheels and tires just taking up space in my garage. One front wheel short of two full sets of Enthusiast wheels with varying degrees of tire conditions.
