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.

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

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?

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

Sounds good, thanks for the feedback. I heard the Koni's dropped 0.25 on swifts, so that could be the reason for scraping. I left mine on soft for DD with the Z33. Know now it's pretty much the consensus on the Z34. I am starting to to turn to the dark side (Koni). Will know more when I wring out Donald's on some twisties. I am betting though he will not let me go there. Have good evening and stop modding for awhile so you can get reacquainted with your NEW car...ha

Okay well the Z color change project is complete...for the most part. I will post some pictures within an hour or two. Been outside most of the day and just stopped by the site quickly before cleaning up. Overall I am happy with the Z's paint job although the finish quality is not up to a factory assembly line paint job and there are a few small spots at the tape lines were the original color is visible.
