Ok, so I got my brakes bled properly this morning and the car is up and running. Just as a refresher, these are the parts I installed....

Koni Yellows
Stillen Say Bars
StopTech slotted rotors
Project Mu Type NS pads
Z1 SS Brakelines
Motul RBF600 brake fluid

I was unable to swap my diff oil for Eneos 75w90 due to not having an allen wrench large enough for the plug. I will be swapping my engine oil and diff oil to Eneos the weekend prior to ZDAYZ.

As for driving impressions all I can say is WOW!!! Car feels amazing. I re-set my Konis this morning to full soft as per m4a1's suggestion for a starting point. I also set my sways to full soft as a starting point. The car is very stiff even at fully soft settings. Braking in the new pads and rotors was quite fun as well, I have never done a serious brake break-in Im beyond pleased.
