Default Finished?

so i have a metalic black base 07hr and i just got my quaife lsd installed and i THINK thats the last part thats going on my money pit. i also have: stillen headers, berk hfc, stillen td exhaust, k&n dropins, greddy strut towerbar, jic magic flt tar coilovers, kintex front a arms, rear camber arms and traction bars, cobb sway bars, jwt c/f, d/s rotors, z1 ss brake lines and hawk pads, pieced together oil cooler off summit, and the cobb access port(iknow iknow uprev..) i thnk thats it. im running royal purple 5w30 with k&n oilfilter, motul rf600 brake fluid, and redline fluid in the rear diff and trans. im not happy with my rock hard cooper tires. deff junk and need something different.

anyway its a completely different car then when i bought it, im very happy with it and i would like to thank this forum for all the information reguarding hrs. i need to get a dyno sheet and some pics but i need funds and need to clean my car for a pic. its almost tax season so maybe then. im going to get drunk happy hollidays

no i had it installed for $280. shim it? i bought new bearings and shims...? gear lash? the diff is a 1.5 way and it ships at 60% if thats what your asking. it feels great...the base model z comes with an open diff so yes.

I'm not hatin' either .. just a strut bar would of never crossed my mind when it comes to things to buy for my Z .. already have one that works pretty well and I never really pop my hood except for oil changes so a $150 chrome bar isn't a plus for me


but its your car .. so

So, got any pics of your ride + mods?

Also, how many miles you got on the JWT clutch/flywheel? Hope you don't run into any CSC problems with that.
