sounds good. i bought 3 generic oem-looking rocker switches a member here found online.

i wired one to my DVD player as its bypass switch, one to the rear fog lamp, and one to interior lighting. actually the interior lighting i dont even use since i dont motor my Z at night, but it's there as a placeholder for future options... like missile launcher/machine gun/popcorn/shiatsu massage/microwave/coffee pot, etc.

I like the missle launcher option best.

Ride is comparable to stock as far a comfort is concerned. I really love them. Def one of my fav upgrades. To anybody getting springs I suggest the Swifts hands down. Ken, those Weds are begging for a drop on Swifts

although Im pretty sure I remember you saying you dont wanna drop. Buuuut they are JDM

This about sums it up, Swifts are amazing for springs. My favorite part is how they changed the balance: so much more neutral and quicker turn in, especially when paired with sway bars.

Amen ^^^ Put it up on stands or ramps, on your back, unbolt, bolt, done.

Z action for me today... drove it to gym before work, then work, then back to gym at lunch, while giving a buddy a ride. He's looking for a sports car, used, for around 20k, any suggestions? Can be 2 or 4 seat, vert or not.

Anyways... enjoyed my drive immensely. Planning my 2nd oil change this week/weekend. Got my Amsoil in!!! I'm curious as to whether or not it will drop oil temps, but eh.... I also plan to wash Zena tonight, if I can squeeze it in between grilling for dinner, mowing, and possibly washing my Civic
