I got the Tein S-Tech from a member here (Brand New), I had them before on other cars and I liked the ride. Hopefully it will be the same with the Z.

I was going to get the Swift but I have the F.I. CBE which is real close to the ground, so that was my concern since I'm not going up to 20s.

I wish mine could hibernate. Unfortunately I have no garage. The one thing I had to sacrifice to get the privacy I have. Pretty much the one feature I wanted most due to having my Z but alas Im garageless. Im plan to build one someday. So I will be making use of the thousands of tax dollars I spend on the local elementary school each year and park in the middle of their parking lot for the storm. I live in the middle of the woods, I dont really even have a yard, I have trees. (onzedge you will never see me post in the lawn thread lol) We could get 100mph gusts here, I know stuff is gonna be fallin! Good luck Papo, & anyone else bout to get hit.

Ps. I sent out some reps before but my phone doesnt let me click on the message box to comment so unfortunatly I can never send a message w my rep. Lame.

I'm in the same boat... no garage, but I do have a carport. Thing is, I'm more worried about the carport collapsing than anything it could protect the car from. I'm potentially f***ed since I'm no more than 2 miles from the Sound, and less than a mile from the Thames. Maybe I'll build a ramp up to my deck, blow out the sliding door and park the Z in my living room for the weekend.

Same to you, I hope nothing happens to your Z. Supposedly it has gone down to Cat 1 now, but the same path.

OK, I should get them by mid-week, but that will depend on the Hurricane and will try to get them install by the weekend.

In for pics as well! You'll most likely have the Teins on before I get my Swifts on... so busy with work so I have no time to install it... Irene pretty much washed away my hopes of getting it done this weekend.

Installed Brian's Nav by-pass harness today, and it works as advertised. Having the back-up camera while you are driving in freeway traffic is awesome!

While the dash was apart, installed the GTR start button. This is a MUST for every Z owner. I didn't realize it has a metallic finish to it. It really stands out in the interior and looks awesome.

Next-up is a Z Store carbon fiber fang. I want to install the EVO fog light, but will need to find someone in the Houston area to do that one.

She got her first bath today, and a full detail is on the agenda for the weekend. Since it's forecast to be over 100° again tomorrow and Sunday, that may get delayed. It's no fun dripping sweat all over the car as you try to wax it.

Decided I wasn't gonna risk it, so I got the f*** outta Dodge. My Z is now residing in my dad's barn on the other side of the state. Still in Irene's path, but at least it's under a roof (and walls).
