But if I ever get the time, resources, and gusto to do this, we will have to raise a glass or five, mr. onzedge.
I have yet to take my Z on a long road trip. ZDAYZ 2012 will be my first long haul. Im pretty excited

ahh, sounds like a busy and fun weekend + week coming up.

Dang, Mr. Kenchan. We are not doing turkey this year for the first time. Our menu is: Spiral-sliced ham, homemade 4 cheese scalloped potatoes, green bean casserole with maple bacon, ceasar salad (anchovies too) and biscuits with gravy.

I am trying to fight the urge to go indulge in Black Friday action.

The Z had it's first "water" wash since August. Water restrictions forced water-less car washes. Honestly, once you get the hang of it, the water-less is actually faster, plus no drying the car, which is the part I hate most.

I'll break out the Griot's Best of Show wax tomorrow.

Very lazy day for me,

I woke up bright and early and had a shop install the toe bolts and they did the alignment. I was at -3.5 in the rears before camber arms and adjustments. Now it's at -1.2 and it feels much better. I usually install everything myself but we did my roommates last night and too a long time with a dremel and (4)115 bits, so $40 to the kid doing my alignment and he had it done in 10min, both sides haha.

Then, I paid for my first ever interior detail and then took a few pics with TMAN1985 after lunch.
ALIGNMENT! YES! LESS NEGATIVE CAMBER!!! (I hate the low and slow Honda/VW flush and cambered-out look).







and heres 98intrigue's old lip (TMAN1985 beat me to it )

fresh and clean Footloose! I just got an alignment today and they could not get better than -2.6 camber on one side of the back. I think I may have to get some bolts or bars along with my swifts to get me closer to spec.
