I need to try to turn mine off. The VDC cuts in way too early/soon. If it helps smoothen shifts/running, all the better.

Haven't driven my car in two weeks. Boooooo. Life can get so busy. Today I found out there is a water leak between my water meter and the shut off valve in the house. Been digging and can't find nothing. Please don't be in the slab!

That is not happy news. I hope it is not too bad. Pipe in slab repairs fall into the "This Sucks" category.

Installed RE-11's in the front today and gave it a much needed oil change.

Tomorrow are spacers and next week I should have springs!

I incidentally turned VDC off today too, and subsequently had some good fun getting sideways! Big grins all around!

On the downside..it's the beginning of love bug season! They're EVERYWHERE!

Quick wash, and all is good!

What did I do today? Lots of thinking!

I'm going to be ordering CNT Resonated Test Pipes for the Z...My inspection is up in October so it only makes sense to wait until after my inspection to get them installed. My only thought now is when should I order? Do I order now and have them laying around staring me in the face say "install me install me you know you want to." Or do I wait a little longer to order so it will arrive closer to when they can be installed? Oh the agony

I have a friend with a lift, so I'm pretty sure he can help me out with the install.

As far as stuffing steel wool in the O2 bung, does the type of steel wool matter? Or anything I can roll up and put in there is going to be good?
