[DFW]: DFW's Lounge
I'll get you the hand truck this weekend for sure. Friday morning I'll be in the area. Maybe I could drop it by. Otherwise we can meet up this weekend.
It doesn't even matter. I'm too broke anyway.
I want them wheels, though.What the f*k?
I parked my car at starbucks for hour, some MF left me a nice fu*king huge scratche on my rear bumper. Wtf is wrong with people? MF didn't even left a note...
On the way back home, I thought about my previous cars that I had and funny thing is all of my car I had damaged in rear bumper expect pos mazda. Hit and run, I ran into something and co worker bust my rear with his civic.
Edit: sorry about my language.

Jason (Nexx) I think we may truly over run your place this time!

got one of those recently but it was for not coming to a complete stop before making a right on a red.

cities are cracking down - they posted my video online but IDK how to save it....
I wonder if I can fight this or not?

not worth fighting. its only $75 and it doesnt go on your record since they cant prove it was you driving.

I honestly cant believe no one has bought these yet.....if anyone in DFW needs some Upper control arms - these are by far the next best thing other than SPL's......
Dude only wants $200 bucks for them - https://my350z.com/forum/suspension/...nt-a-arms.html
I rate them 2nd on my list to purchase under SPL because:
In order to adjust camber, you have to remove the nut front the front spindle and turn the rod end.......i would hope that they would come with instructions to explain what each 360 degree turn would result to in camber increase and decrease, but regardless........you may run into additional charges getting the alignment due to the alignment tech having to:
remove alignment sensors from wheels
jack the car up
disconnect nut and spin rod end in or out accordingly
reattach nut/torque to spec
lower car back on alignment rack
reinstall alignment sensors on wheels
re-shoot alignment and - IF not within spec - do it again! until you get it right.
UNLESS its an alignment machine that can "shoot" the specs with the front off the air, some shops have machines that can do this...that makes it much easier. Most NTB's have John Bean alignement racks - and most have the capability to shoot the aligment with the car in the air.......Sooo, then its not to big a deal then.
POSITIVE THOUGH: PLEASE READ ON!
1. Once set, there is no way for it to move! by design...no slip, no nothing! ITS BOLTED INTO POSITION...CANT TURN WITH OUT YOU REMOVING AND TURNING IT.
2. AND!!! the bread winner of that design is this! while at the alignment shop you can have them turn it and get you a within oem spec alignment (NOTE DOWN THAT LOCATION BY MEASURING AND COUNTING REVOLUTIONS TO THAT POINT! THEN count the number of turns to a lower more negative alignment for your track/racing set up. MEASURE AS WELL AS COUNT TURNS TOO....
Once you know the number of turns/measurement from the base...you can do camber changes yourself at the track!!!! AND BE SURE YOUR WHERE YOU WANT TO BE!
WIN FEATURE with that design....
so in essence, the only fault is costly alignment....."if" your alignment shop does in fact charge you more for the added work.....get it?
So to me I like them for that...great set for the weekend warrior autoX'r...etc....THAT DOESNT CARE TO MESS WITH CASTER......AS CASTER IS NOT ADJUSTABLE ON THIS UNIT....

^ 200 bucks is cheap for that brand. I planned to buy spl ones when I had z, but was expensive. someone should jump on that deal and let Jack install that for great $! Or DIY for fun!.
Lameeeee it turned red 0.18 seconds before you were in the intersection 
I hate these photo enforced lights and they are everywhere here in plano. It seems like they cut the yellow time just to catch people running the light
