It was probably more the alignment settings than the spacer. Went from -2.5 degrees out back to -1 degree.

Mike B. I thought I remember a post you made about the passwordjdm engine covers that you were working with them on.. did that ever happen?

RCZ · 02-21-2010, 04:14 PM

Mike, let me know if you ever want to get rid of those sideskirt add-ons. I know the abuse they have seen

I take that back, after a long trip out of state, there are some instances where the fronts rubbed ever so slightly.

The engine cover itseslf never happened, but the radiator cooling panel and battery/brake fluid covers did.

Yeah that will get done eventually, but I am going to go with paint probably.

They will stay on the car for a while most likely unless I can somehow nail down a body kit sponsor.

They don't show any signs of abuse anyway.

Damn that sucks. Those other pieces look awesome, a matching engine cover would be pretty sick.

Yeah, unfortunately once DDM went out of business and I couldn't sell their products for them, they were no longer interested in using my car for development purposes.

I like them I dont know why you would want to get rid of them...They look awsome, I like how they keep the beautiful lines of the stock Z. Very classy in my book.

M.Bonanni · 02-23-2010, 02:37 PM

Some photos from Sunday's Hellaflush 3.5 / Berk Technology Charity Ride-A-Long event!

And my new office for the 2010 Redline Time Attack season.

On another note...my gently used StopTech slotted front rotors and OEM rear rotors showed up from ChrisSlicks!

So jealous, those wheels are beautiful--congrats!

M.Bonanni · 03-02-2010, 12:01 PM

^^Sweet! I hope so.

Would be a nice b-day present.

Made an appointment for tomorrow at 9am at a local shop to FINALLY get my NST pulley kit and SPC Toe Bolts installed, plus an alignment.

Will get my rotors on the car probably Thursday, then its off to Vivid Racing in Arizona on Friday for their JDM/Euro Charity meet.
