But they are quality miles. I have enjoyed every second!

And my XM still hasn't cut off. The 3 months free has been over for several weeks. I wonder if I'm going to get a bill for it.

Matt (nurseryboy) came over today so we could install his Eibach lowering springs and H&R (15mm F and 20mm R) spacers with extended studs. Car look so much better after the install.

Now I just need to install my springs

nurseryboy · 11-20-2010, 07:48 PM

Great pics! Thanks so much for your help too!

I can't wait to see your car with the H&R springs and your Volk wheels back on

Matthew · 11-20-2010, 10:01 PM

Hey Will, do you know if the lowering spring affect the tread life of your tires. And the car looks bad a$$. Wish we could have taken a drive when u where up here. Took my car up to the mtns after the intake install.

Lowering springs will affect the tread if you can not get the camber back in factory specs. Really just depends on which springs you get and whether you get the camber kit too. If you are thinking about getting some give me a call and I will give you my 2 cents.

Yeah, I wish we had gotten the chance to go out for a mountain drive. I bet the leaves are gorgeous right now. Oh well maybe in the late spring I will be able to make it back up there.

I haven't updated this thread in a while. As some of you already know my wife has had a couple fender benders recently. She is ok but it's taken my attention away from working on the Z. I have a stock pile of parts ready to go on it's just finding the time to do so.

Coming soon.....

oh and it's my 1000th post....

HKYStormFront · 12-09-2010, 02:51 PM

what does the wife drive?

ClemsonWill · 12-09-2010, 03:59 PM

She has a 2010 Rav4 limited. Now with a front bumper hanging off and a rear quarter panel with a dent the size of a basketball. I've been shopping for front bumper. I think I can fix that myself and just have it painted. The rear quarter is going to need some metal work. Unfortunately that will be going to the body shop here in the next week or so.

I'm even more irritated that she will be driving my DD in the interim. So I will be driving the Z on the interstate with all the stupid papermill trucks. grr.

sucks but the z should be a daily driver not sitting in th

e garage

HKYStormFront · 12-09-2010, 05:00 PM

yea that sucks

ClemsonWill · 12-10-2010, 08:52 AM

I would love to drive it more but my drive to work is awful. I daily drove my S2k for 2 years. The front bumper looked like a 10 yr old dart board. A clear bra would have helped but I have friends that have them and they still get the deep pits. We have a large papermill in the area and all of the wood chip trucks go down the interstate without any covers. Let's just put it this way. I replace windsheilds on my daily driver yearly. Typically they are cracked in multiple places. I just can't bring myself to subject the Z to that abuse.

dude that sucks
