would that be due to low tire tread? I know my buddies Z used to do that when It was due for tires usually. sounds good though man I think the next car I get will be one of those Z06's or a second gen CTS V wagon

Default Convertible Top Replacement

Hey, anyone know of a good installer for convertible tops in the Metroplex?
I bought a new one, was going to replace it myself but can't seem to get the DIY guide that was posted years ago. SO....I got to find someone that knows what they are doing. Anyone? Thanks.

I had ACIDJAKE install the RJM Rev 4 Clutch Bracket. Well worth the money. I will write up a full review later.

http://www.rjmperformance.com/350z--...edal-kits.html

Benefits of the RJM AFP Pedal System

- Smoother Launches with more Control, Lower Friction Point and Predictable Engagement!
- Much Smoother 1-2 & 2-3 Upshifts Shifts
- Smoother and easier 4-3 & 3-2 Downshifts!
- Improvement in Pedal Feel & Clutch Control for all clutches OEM to Extreme Multi-plate and Heavy Puck clutches.
- Adjustable for Stroke Length, Pedal Angle/Height, Friction Point & Pedal Pressure!
- Features a Single Acting Torsion Return Spring & Eliminates the Factory "Assist Spring Mechanism".
- New Rev 4 Features increased adjustment capabilities over older versions for more setup flexibility.
- ZERO Pedal sticking to the floor after Hard Driving, Track Days or Events
- Reduces or Eliminates chance of CSC failures on 07-08 HR 350Z.

The Rev 4.0 Assemblies Have Been Completely Redesigned as Full Replacement Pedal Assemblies Allowing:
- Faster & Easier to Install than previous versions.
- Simpler Tuning Process than previous versions.
- Reduced Number of Install Steps.
- New Simpler AFP Adjustment Mechanism featuring a built in scale to see exact AFP Setup Percentage.
- Comes as a Complete Pre-Assembled Replacement Assembly, AFP comes Pre-Adjusted to reduce setup.

Unfortunately I don't forsee my health getting any better. The VA doesn't really do much for me other than pushing pills and I have found that my health seems to be much better after I had stopped taking most of them. Going to start researching more sports medicine over the next year and see what i can do holistically. I am digressing every year. I still try to keep myself as active as I can. Just can't wait for the warm weather to come back. This cold weather gets into all my joints especially my spine. Still planning on doing the rjm clutch pedal mod at tax time.
