Yeah, they can. I think they're worth it though...
I went outside and made a quick video for you to help you and anyone else decide whether or not it's worth it for you/them.

Just ignore me getting too close for a second, I forgot for a moment that I was filming and needed to stay a bit back

Thanks! Which lumens did you get? The highest of the high? It's pretty damn bright.

Yeah, they're the XP50's ...410 lumens. I thought they'd be brighter tbh, but they are still pretty damn bright indeed.

Thought on your other thread. The front camber was pretty close to -1.7 on both sides?

The rear camber is good.

You should start thinking about front control arms.
No, it's not toe out, it's toe in like it should be.

Rusty, as far as my other thread about front camber, I'm not sure what you're asking. I never had it on an alignment rack until yesterday.

Sorry, that was someone else that did the same thing as you. His camber was around -1.7 before and after I believe.

When you put a( - )in front of the number. It means negative or toe out. A (+) means positive or toe in. You have a (-) in front of your toe numbers.

The final numbers...

Front Camber: -1.7* Left, -2.2* Right
Front Toe: -06* for both

Rear Camber: -1.7* for both
Rear Toe: -13* for both

Yeah, sorry about that. Definitely not driving around with the toe out. That would be horrible not to mention dangerous.

Default New Rear Emblem

Been done on here a bunch of times but I took the liberty of making some small adjustments to it.

Been holding on to this until I got the Nismo Rear Bumper on the Roadster.

I've been off of work all week so I decided to start a new 3D printed project for the Z.

I decided to make a 3D printed shift knob, and after a few iterations I have one IO like.

It's a fairly simple design printed out of ABS. I modeled a top and bottom piece and filled them with BBs and epoxy to add some mass, and then use a M10-1.25 flange nut pressed into the bottom half and used JB wled to hold it into place. I then used acetone to chemically weld the 2 pieces together and then smoothed it with an acetone vapor bath.




I may paint it, but I'm still not sure. I Kind of like the idea of knowing that it's 3d printed. I can't find my kitchen scale otherwise I'd weigh it.
