Ok, so I got my brakes bled properly this morning and the car is up and running. Just as a refresher, these are the parts I installed....

Koni Yellows
Stillen Say Bars
StopTech slotted rotors
Project Mu Type NS pads
Z1 SS Brakelines
Motul RBF600 brake fluid

I was unable to swap my diff oil for Eneos 75w90 due to not having an allen wrench large enough for the plug. I will be swapping my engine oil and diff oil to Eneos the weekend prior to ZDAYZ.

As for driving impressions all I can say is WOW!!! Car feels amazing. I re-set my Konis this morning to full soft as per m4a1's suggestion for a starting point. I also set my sways to full soft as a starting point. The car is very stiff even at fully soft settings. Braking in the new pads and rotors was quite fun as well, I have never done a serious brake break-in:tup: Im beyond pleased.

Woooooot! :D

long story short car runs great, love my new mods. typed a review twice and for some reason it didnt post both times. im over it and highly aggravated right now. here is a droid pic of the front assembly

Schwing!

took her out for a quick drive. got 3 compliments. one guy thought it was a gt-r from the front :driving:

Diggin the last three items on your laundry list. Gonna be there in a few. Keep us updated on the stoppies. Soooo the car is very stiff, let us know how the ride is after about 1k miles, ya know the placebo effects wears off and suspension settles. Very interested on those koni's...and if I recall you have them paired with swifts...right? Like I stated earlier, X-mas came late or your phat tax return came back...haha. :tup:

Lighting fires and smoking tires, or in your case, brakes. :tiphat:

Can't remember what my Stillen's are set but def not soft, you will be moving up a notch soon. Just curious what tires are you running and how does the entire package setup feel in the twisties and hitting pot holes in the middle of corners?

Greetings Z Community, happy Sunday afternoon/evening to all. Is everybody looking forward to going back to work tomorrow? I am not, would rather be driving and I do not mean to work...haha

Well just putting around in a rental Versa while my NEW speedo cluster is being calibrated/programmed by a vendor in N.Y, it's under warranty with NNA. Oh...if anyone is interested NNA uses this vendor for ALL of their speedo calibrations. Must be a sweet contract for the vendor. It was ordered last Thurs and will not be avail until Weds.

Hopefully my Z's hood, roof and hatch are still in good shape after the 10 minute hail with bb size hail we got on Friday while it is sitting outside on the back lot of dealer. I am afraid to look, then again a new paint job from the insurance company would be noice - Zele Orange.

Washed her and kissed her goodbye before getting on a train for NYC for the week.

I have a Miata, so it's pretty obvious that I don't subscribe to this mentality.
I can't speak for others.

alchemy- nice!! :tup: sounds like a job well done, congrats! :D

Well last night I took my lady out for dinner in my car. It was snowing/flurrying when I went out. The roads were clear and the snow wasn't sticking. When we left to go home it was dark and the roads were now very icy/snow covered. I have the 19inch sport tires on it and it made for an interesting ride home. At one point I got the bright idea to gas it to break the tires loose. Car went sideways ! :eek: I was able to correct it and we made it home safely

Its def more than placebo. Car is so much more tightened up after the Koni's and the sways. I just took a spin through a great section of road that runs along the Delaware near my house. Scraped everywhere, even going down my driveway where I have never scraped before. Not sure if its due to it being stiffer or if the Konis dropped it slightly or a combination of both. Yes I am paired on Swifts and so far the combo feels very capable. I guess it was kind of a late xmas. They are parts I have been accumulating thru the winter. I will prob end up going to the stiff rear sway setting and stay soft or move to the middle in front. So far the Koni's on soft feel great. Any stiffer and I think I would encounter a lot of probs on the roads in my area. I will most likely bump them up very slightly, if at all, for DD. You def wont be disappointed with the Koni's. Well worth the money I paid. I was going thru familiar turns much faster than usual today and very comfortably at that. The capabilities of my Z in the twisties just increased considerably:tup:

Oh, and a BIG :tiphat: to all the congrats from everyone!!!
