Everything is hunky-dory today. Juke oil change at Nissan this morning and a bit of housework now. Koni adjustment, lawn mowing and car washing are in my future this afternoon.

All I got to do was drive her to work 10am to 9pm and then I'm going home, I have to be up at 5:30am to play guitar for my church. I really wanted to go to the beach today too...

Good Afternoon Fellows!!

It's been a busy day in the store and I don't have a min to check-in here...

The good is business is picking up this week, it's been a disaster for retail for the last couple months Looks like it's slowly getting back on track, still hanging there.

Anyone who is running sway bars, what settings are you using???

Also, Mr. onzedge & Mr. dAvenue, what settings are you running on your Konis??

All input is appreciated. Have a great weekend guys
Mr.Alchemy, on your installation of your goodies, I am very happy for you and look forward to hear your feedback.

I don't have coil-over or after sway on my Z, but I can suggest you to try a balance setup first, or slight stiffer on the front and start from there. Do you track your Z?

Sorry to hear about the ticket dude... BTW, there's "military discount" in the State????

Raccoon assassins hired by Moose, paid with poutine. This is more common in Canada than one would think.

I'm not sure what to do here. Who do you have mount your tires? Anyone with a touchless system?
