Do you clear speed bumps ok? My Camaro is lowered and I drug it on everything, but it was also a much longer car than the Z. The front end loved to nosedive into the road.

God no. I can't tackle speed bumps even at an angle any longer. Definitely low life problems. But again, it completely depends how drastic your swift springs will actually compress. We did a stare and compare at Madwi's. His are seriously over an inch higher than mine for whatever reason. OEM suspension, but with swifts installed. Literally identical in every way. Just also take that into consideration.

I now play the waiting game for the car shop to get back to me saying the Focus needs X amounts of parts that are failing and the Z won't pass because of the HFC's or some other nonsense. But hey, those massive duallies with 8 inch smoke stacks coming out the flat bad to roll coal are totally better for the environment.

I hope they fine you for not being at Zdayz. That's a criminal offense around these parts...

Reps out!

The amount of parts I bought for the car more then make up for not going this year. I'm coordinating with Madwi to get a room for next year though.

Hopefully next year I can make zdayz. Timing didn't work this year and since I'm job hunting now, it might be a little questionable next year.

On a side note, I was in Allentown last week... just in time to have to sit in the hotel bathroom because of a tornado warning....

Getting new tires on the Fit. Thinking about asking them to just take it back and give me something different. Remarkably, that car is not a good "fit" for me
