Welp, bad news. Left for my coil install this morning and got pulled over for expired tags :| The Z is no longer my DD, so it's pretty much sat in the garage since November.. when the plates expired! I can't believe I let that go. I rescheduled for next Friday. Sorry guys.

What bad luck. I knew a guy that went 5 years with expired tags before getting noticed. It was in a minivan mind you, not a Z.

Yeah, it's hard to miss a Z downshifting with short tails

Damn!

So this definitely happened today! It was an all day ordeal. Coils and exhaust leak at one shop, then lunch, then drive across town for an alignment and [failed] emissions at a buddy's shop.

I have to adjust the coils in the front bc I'm not quite happy with the height - need moar low. I'll be able to put the car through it's paces once I'm dialed in. The short amount I did drive tho was pretty amazing. There's no more float/bounce at highway speed. It feels very planted now. Super stiff but that was expected. Here's a sneak peek..

More to come

I'm actually looking at either a second set of wheels or selling these and stepping down to a 19" and running more meat. On the fence right now. If I keep these I'll definitely go with a wider tire in the rear when these tires are done. I bought the wheels with the 275's already on em.

Here's an iphone pic from yesterday. I'm still trying to get my emissions to pass, so I won't be able to post a thorough review until my car is legal..
