I've got 23k on my Z. Did the brakes when I changed to SS lines and 2 piece rotors. I need to do the diff/clutch/trans fluid though!

I'm thinking of swapping to SS lines as well when I do the brake fluid. Easy job for diy?

It's pretty easy. Especially if you don't drive your Z in the weather. You won't have to deal with the corroded fittings. Make sure you have a brake bleeder though to make it a lot easier

For Reference: Anything brake-related can be done at the Garage of Osborne... which is available most weekends

P.S. It's heated too!

Just oem replacements. Was thinking about getting the Stoptech slotted rotors. But not sure what pads to get yet. Also my first time working on these types of calipers, I'll figure it out.

I'm already so used to the stock clutch

Good buy for anyone that just recently got their Z and is having trouble getting used to the manual, especially the 1-2 shift.

Where are you staying? It's going to be a game time decision for me. My client is dragging their feet with revising their schedule. I already know they will miss their deadline, I just need them to formally acknowledge it. Until then I have to 'plan to be available' that weekend, ugh.
