i buy almost 99% of my goodies online.

I do my fair share of e-commerce too. I would easily do 99% as well if I lived in the US. As far as the Z goes, everything had been ordered from the US using the interwebz. Just today I received my carbon fang cover... Still looking for a bodyshop.

hope you find a good body shop soon.

is the fang cover from thezstore? (does it have the little vertical lip where it meets the car's vents?) if it's the evo-r one you will need to paint a little bit of the silver as it peeks out. also the bottom portion will need to be cut by about 1.5" if you have the front sport diffuser installed.

I actually like 50mm for the dof on car pix more than 35mm.

What I did with my Z today was received an E-mail about being featured in Camaro Performer's Magazine...

I know, wrong Z....But I will take what I can get...

Bad news is that due to my health problems, I may have to fight the DMV to keep my License..

SPL Toe rods ordered. I always wanted these. This will get my car rolling again and to the body shop. Woot.

Can't say 100% But more than likely it's going to be OK. Trying to get it to the body shop next week. We did some quick basic measuring and all of that was bad at all. But only a laser machine will tell all. But IMO its not bad suspension wise and of course body work is always fixable

Hey all! First time logging in today. I got pulled over for doing 37 in a 30 this am on the way to work.

Teh pole-leese man state that he had pulled over four of us that work at the hospital this morning alone.....and that we (the employees) were "just going WILD"!! Ummm, I didn't know that 37mph was "going wild". Be advised guys...don't do 37 in a 30....you just might get cuffed, yer ride impounded and thrown in jail.

Called Stillen this morning and was somewhat dismayed to learn that H&R does not sell individual studs for their spacers... If you are in need of purchasing studs...you're going to have to purchase the whole kit.

wow... sucks. i suppose when the officer needs your help in the emergency room, you guys can all drive 25mph to get there. you know, 5mph buffer to ensure no wildness.

which length studs do you need?

Man, that's good to hear! I think about your poor ride every day.

That's a good question Mr. Ken-San. I'm not sure. If I had the studs that were given to me (that were originally shipped with 10mm H&R spacers) and the ones that were shipped to me with the 15mm spacers, I could deduct how long the ones with the 20mm will need to be. As it is though, I've got the 15mm spacers installed up front right now...
