Welp, bad news. Left for my coil install this morning and got pulled over for expired tags :| The Z is no longer my DD, so it's pretty much sat in the garage since November.. when the plates expired! I can't believe I let that go. I rescheduled for next Friday. Sorry guys.

What bad luck. I knew a guy that went 5 years with expired tags before getting noticed. It was in a minivan mind you, not a Z.

So this definitely happened today! It was an all day ordeal. Coils and exhaust leak at one shop, then lunch, then drive across town for an alignment and [failed] emissions at a buddy's shop.

I have to adjust the coils in the front bc I'm not quite happy with the height - need moar low. I'll be able to put the car through it's paces once I'm dialed in. The short amount I did drive tho was pretty amazing. There's no more float/bounce at highway speed. It feels very planted now. Super stiff but that was expected. Here's a sneak peek..





More to come

I'm actually looking at either a second set of wheels or selling these and stepping down to a 19" and running more meat. On the fence right now. If I keep these I'll definitely go with a wider tire in the rear when these tires are done. I bought the wheels with the 275's already on em.

Here's an iphone pic from yesterday. I'm still trying to get my emissions to pass, so I won't be able to post a thorough review until my car is legal..
