On another note, since raising the car (switched from eibachs to a nismoZ suspension), the tires stuck out with the 25mm spacers and were no longer tucked under.


Since I have everything off the car and on stands, decided to switch to type one 15mm spacers that I have. I was worried about fitting the longer studs in without disassembling the parking brake assembly, but up to 15 fit with no problem.


I have the parts on order from Z1. On my to-do list is refill the oil now that I have the new lines on and rebleed the brakes, as I took the brembos off and put the stocker on for now, with the one front caliper being saturated in oil.

Since the radiator core support needs to be replaced, I'm not comfortable with missing something else that might be broken, so I am towing it to my bodyshop on friday to commence repairs.

I got a quote today for 1900 to wrap the car flat black and put my company logo on the doors and hood. Going to compare with getting a flat clear on the entire car instead, but I think it will be flat when all of this is over with.
