Got the car out of storage yesterday. Even thought it was 31deg, the roads are dry and clear. took a 60mi trip to get gas (4.09 ouch) and pick up some brewing supplies. Going to make some Irish stout today.

Once you got home was it time to go get gas again? j/k

Have fun with your brew!

Now I need to put a few miles on it, then install my Whitelines. :tup:

What made you go with whitelines? I can't decide between eibach and whiteline.

and does someone have the specs on the whitelines (how much stiffer than stock at each setting)

:hello: Happy Juke Day.

Quick question regarding the painting of my StopTechs. Im masking them off and I know that I left a bigger section than needed exposed for painting. The first time I drive it the pads should take the excess off without any negative side effects correct?? Im using high temp rotor/caliper paint.

I picked up a package for my other hobby. The one in the middle is my new one (new to me, bought it used with a ton of spare parts on another forum). For anyone that is in the hobby as well; from left to right: Team Associated TC6 FT, Corally 10SL WGT, Team Losi XXX-SCT. I have a fourth but since it is being repaired I decided not to include it in the picture

Nice! I had a XR10 but never really got into it much. Some of the money I got selling it is what paid for the new car. The rest will go into a new servo and esc since the stuff i have on hand doesn't fit very well. I also plan on trying to make a quasi mini-me of my car lol, I'm going to be ordering a 370Z body for my TC6 :D

Yep. The pads will take care of the excess paint.

I chose the Whitelines based on reviews that I've read here. There are guys that have tried several brands of sway bars on the track and the majority like the performance from the Whitelines the most.

There is a thread on here that goes in depth about the settings... I can't remember who's thread, it might be in this one http://www.the370z.com/brakes-suspen...s-amazing.html

Yeah i read that thread a few times now. I am leaning toward whitlines but they are $$ compared to the rest and I don't know if that extra $100 or so + extra weight is worth it on a street car.

Also, did you get the rear end links? Do you need them?

Yes, I did get the rear end links. No, you don't need them.
