Good luck

What did I do to my Z today?

That.

I installed my rear fog/brake light!

Drove the Z to work (which I never do) because my 240SX won't start after changing out the plugs, wires, cap and rotor, head gasket, and fuel filter. And yes, the plugs are in the correct order. Trying to prep it to sell before I move. Not going well so far.

Z1 > Racing brake?

There is probably a thread on this somewhere.

Installed the SPC rear camber kit today. Started on the passenger side and the install went flawless. I took my time grinding out the toe bolt holes. Moved to the driver side and noticed that the bit wasn't really cutting well. I changed it out to a new one and continued grinding away. The driver side just didn't seem to cut away as good as the passenger but I finally finished. Went to go test fit the SPC toe bolt and BAM...I had spent all that time elongating the camber arm hole.

Frustrated I curse and go grab a beer.

Move back to the correct hole, mark my lines and start dremeling away. Again I notice the bit not cutting, so I curse again and run to Home depot and pick up another pack of two. Get home and carry on. Again the driver side just didn't seem to cut away as nicely. I just couldn't get a good angle so I ended up only grinding the inner side of the hole as I was getting frustrated. Install wasn't bad, with my screw up, lunch, beer, and trip to the store it took me 5hours and 3 dremel 115 bits.

Tomorrow I go get realigned. Going to aim for -1.8 rear camber. This should be the last of my suspension mods for awhile.
