+1 That's what I do especially if I'm in like at the beach or in the sun for a while. Drinking water when you're drinking alcohol helps lessen the effects of a hangover too

Man, it's in the 80's here, and I think that's hot. I don't think I'm going to enjoy the 100's when I come home in a week...
Gotta get back to the FX though, got a lot of plans for it over the summer.

@ Stu,

Enjoy the nice weather there in CA....because when you get back it will be HELL ! Nothing but 100's and the humidity will be bad this year as well.

It smoothers our cars and makes them feel like Dogs.

I think those rims would look Bad *** on that FX !

Well....those are bc coilovers, but they sure as hell arent for a Z or fx...

This is more what you are looking for..............I hate universal pics..

https://my350z.com/forum/8337282-post9.html

I did a BC racing coilover install not to long ago and they are quite nice.....extenders and all...

OEM Z strut bar doesn't need to be drilled for clearance:

Jack,

Did you play with your coil setting? I know you told me you love them, but you still enjoy it?

Btw, nice post jason.

Haha yeah, I just did a universal because all the FX pics are huge since they were for details. Just came out a month or two ago, our Admin tested them and liked them. I've driven on Megan coilovers and loved them in an FX, but BC is supposed to be better. Those are our only two options as of now. They have a great warranty, too.

Damm those looks nice too!

I don't know if I should go with coilover or just go with koni adj shocks in future. There are many brands that are very reasonable price these days.
I know I gotta do some suspension before jump on boost later.

I've read good stuff about megan too...I think price are very close with BCs?

The Import Image guy was saying it's better to keep the geometry as similar to stock suspension as possible. He was probably just being a good salesman though, trying to sell his product. Of course, with the FX we begin to have issues with rear camber and don't have near as many fixes available to us.

Not sure if any of you saw this...

This Is Not How You're Supposed to Fly Out of Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport

A good Friend of Unfair Park, through a friend of a friend of a friend, just shot us this extraordinary video captured early yesterday morning at Dallas-Fort Worth International Airport. Took place at the north toll plaza, which served as a launching ramp for one drunk driver trying to exit the airport in a hurry. DFW spokesman David Magana confirms: "The driver was, as you might guess, suspected of inebriation and investigated for such and arrested for such."

We also have fiery post-crash pics after the jump -- because after the driver went all General Lee, she got out and made a call on her cell, at which point the vehicle went boom. Hard to believe the "driver only suffered minor injuries," as Magana puts it. Oh -- and the toll-booth operator wasn't injured at all.
