Good morning everyone.

So some venting time. I get sent to a client this morning that is 25 miles from my house (office is 12) and when I get there the client informed me that he told my manager yesterday they are not ready yet for us.... @ my manager for forgetting to let me know.

Sounds like 50% of the managers out there. Almost as good as the weather for casters.

Mr.onzedge, then I guess you must be attracted to Mrs because of she has a Fairlady characters

No pictures as of yet. The Z is in the garage so I won't have time or space to take any pictures until maybe the weekends.

Alchang no news. The process is like the tax laws. Way too complicated for what they are doing. I think I might have to sacrifice a chicken on a Thurs. at Midnight or something. I do feel a little better after visiting another site and seeing that people did not get thier order # when first ordered but when they where accepted for production. They have announced another prouction hold for QA. My problem is that if I don't have my car by ZDayZ I will not be going because I cannot take the chance of getting damage to my Z before trade in.

They are about the same price from what i have found. Kmaispeed has the Eibachs for $369 with no tax and free shipping. The Stillens are $372 after shipping from z1. From what i have read on these forums, the Stillens are better for a street setup, the Hotchkis are more for a track set up and Eibachs are a good inbetweener. That's why i was planning to do Eibach.

Are the stillen bars actually red?

Hey Fire!

All this talk of sway bars is making me want to buy some. I've been pretty set on stillens if I install sways. But you can't really go wrong with any of them. But I can't remember, aren't there some stock parts you should change along with the sways due to eventual failure with aftermarket sways?

Some people recommend adjustable sway bar links. I just have stock links and no squeaks or problems.

Yea, I mean.. What are the odds of blowing out the oem endlinks while just street driving the car, not on the track.

I like my Hotchkis sways a great deal.
