Your looking for the upper arms ?

I have a set you can get a hold of....but they are from a G35... So check and see if they will work.

Ask Jake....if you want them get my number from Jake...or PM me.

got the 5mm spacers delivered this weekend, chris p and eric are yall still wanting to see what they look like on your car before i throw them on mine? if so maybe we can get together this coming weekend.

on the engine dampners (i have the stillen) is there a proper way to adjust them or what? when i installed there were no instructions but i feel that it isnt doing the job right, maybe it isnt adjusted correctly and that is why i keep cracking that cat.....

^ I wouldn't mind test fitting it this weekend. Just let me know. As for the engine damper, I have the Stillen copy from eBay and mine's held up real good for 3-4 years. I don't know how it's installed on HRs but I can take a look at it when we meet up.

Don't need jack stands. Just do one wheel then switch sides.

PCA club also just emailed me with their last TT & AutoX for the year.

It's Dec. 8th & 9th at Mineral Wells. I might want to do the TT's.

Those have parade laps !

Travis, Harbor Freight has a deal on a low profile aluminum 1.5 ton jack for $60 + tax ($10 cheaper than its normal sale price).

These low profile jacks should go just as low and higher than your factory jack. Plus, I had my car "sorta slammed" at one point and these fit under it fine.

TT at Mineral Wells? The surface was horrible this past weekend because the drift event was the weekend before. Loose gravel ALL OVER. Wasn't exactly fun.

Just messing around.

It was just Chris P. and myself representing the Z guys this past weekend. Hopefully there will be more of us at the last couple events. The BMW guys were surprised that there were only two of us this time.

I may have to work out of town on the 18th so that's up in the air for me.

It's like $35 bucks to go. As much OT as you get, you should be able to attend just 1 time out of an entire year. Hell, save a dime each day minus holidays and birthdays and you can still afford to go once a year.

You know, it's ok for you guys to say "no, I'm not interested" if you don't want to go. False promises will only have us keep asking you guys.
