Nice pic of the Z’s though

There's usually over 600 cars. Lots to see...

It was yesterday but... Was drafting a huge van doing 85 and getting 25-30 mpg. Never had someone change lanes so many times to stop me from trying to draft them. Must of been around 15 times in 5 miles. I wasn't even that close behind him.

Haha, nah. I want a sedan. Automatic. All the bells and whistles (esp. adaptive cruise control).

Was first looking at the Subaru Legacy 3.6r Limited, but I am not a fan of the CVT. Then I found some 2017 Audi A4's with low miles, but only 1 prestige trim and that one had a branded title, so FML. The next closest are up near San Fran.

I've also thought about a compact SUV like the Q3 (no ACC anything) or the Infiniti QX30 Premium.

This has been so stressful... 😂

There was a...

Big.. BIG Install day, for only a single day in a borrowed shop.

Front:

Got the Z1 34 Row Oil Cooler installed.
ZSpeed Aluminum Shroud
Extended Studs
Z1 2 Peice Rotors + Lines
Sport Front Calipers
SPL Tie Rods
Megan Racing FUCA
PowerTrix Coils

Rear:
PowerTrix Coils
SPL Camber Arms
SPC Toe Bolts

There was a lot that didnt get done, because either the part failed, like the Sport rear calipers.. So i now have agressive front brakes with worn out DD rear brakes.

The exhaust and smaller maintance things got left out due to time constraints. Started at 11am, got done at midnight, then a 3hr drive home.

So i want to thank a fellow forum member, Eagle, for helping me all day getting it installed.

Theres still a lot more to do, but for now just gotta get the eye balled camber fixed, and little things over time.

Dropped it off to Big Brand to get a basic aligment, our eyeball alignment after installing everything was pretty horrid.

Procceedded to rip out the trunk so i could listen for any kind of creaks or pops in the suspension, not to mention so i could adjust the dampening.

Car is "Dialed In" for now. Its gonna see a corner balance once the rest of my laundry list of parts is installed.. Rather not spend money on multiple corner balances if i can avoid it.
