yah, been saying this all along... the front bar needs help, the rear is fine.
might want to get beefier endlinks though if your setting is any more than 35-40% stiffer than stock.

installed a fatboy shift knob today. i like it. shifts are a bit shorter since it sits lower and lighter since it is twice as heavy as the stock one. the only issue is that the knob is advertised as 1.4 lb but is only 1.03 lb when i weighed it.

MAZOC meet in Columbia. QD'd the Z while waiting for others. AND listened to Sports Car Songs for Big Wheels (Oscar Brand).

Ready for an early drive...

Got my dr. Colorchip kit yesterday and proceeded to annihilate about 90% of the paint chips all over my Z, 100% satisfied with the results

jpkirk · 06-13-2015, 04:32 PM

I found my first chip on the front bumper.

Dr. Colorchip will be making a visit to my house.

Today's fun. This is after replacing the O2 sensor from the first CEL earlier this week.
