Now I will get back to loving my New Z.

Saw Rush twice at the Shoreline Amphitheater and once at the Oakland Coliseum arena back in the day! Slappin' da base man!

No, Spring Blocks & all is good.
Had the Z for about a week & a half now.
My biggest dilemma:
a) not wanting to rack-up the miles too soon
b) wanting to get to the break-in point & hang it's arse out good & proper

VDC off and give yourself a lot of room the first couple of times. The Z can do some funny stuff with zero mods. Nismo's probably better than the Sport though.

Now don't forget to remove the front springs shipping blocks. If the dealer forgot to push in the "fuse blocker", I'm sure they did not removed the shipping blocks. If you turn the steering wheel to one side completly or remove the front wheels and look at the springs, you will see 2 or 3 pieces of plastic wedged in the front springs. I know the nismo comes with them installed. That prevents the suspension from being completely compressed during shipment of the vehicle. I was driving around with them for a month before a friend told me about it. Once I removed them, it lowers the vehicle a bit in the front and the suspension feels better.
