Something else to look forward to. With the SPL traction link in place. The bottom caliper bolt will not come out. You still can unbolt the caliper tho.
Thank you sir! I think I'll go have a .. discussion .. with the knucks ab the error of their ways.

Went to back out the car this morning for the tow truck, and definitely got the clutch pedal on the floor. What's interesting is I have a Zspeed HD CSC (or that is what should be there). I guess after a few years it too can be prone to failure??? Either way, Zspeed CMAK will be ordered and hopefully nothing else is damaged.

Finished insulating the walls in the garage. Took the Z out for a little reward and it was amazing. EW's roommate went along and he said "It scares me" Someone took a pic of the Z on the expressway; she is quite the looker.

I got an Amuse front. I got a nice split on the '15 nismo bumper by where it meets the hood and not entirely sure how.

As far as the rib goes it's all better but strangely hurts only when I yawn
