lower center of gravity always helps, plus the Swift springs seems to make the ride better, smoother. I would say it was more about appearance then anything for me as i wanted a more flush look between fender and wheels, get rid of that 4x4 look. its a cheap mod $225 if you can put them on yourself. I think it does wonders to the stance of the Z

tracked my Z for the first time ever yesterday. ran buttonwillow in #13 CW configuration and it was a blast. the z does really, really well there.
things i learned: - must use rb600 - brakes and clutch never boiled! - tire pressure is everything - started at 32psi in the cold 60 degree morning, and had to drop pressure after each session to 30-31psi once it got hotter in the day - 250 degree oil temps come up quick when its 90 degrees outside, even with a 25R oil cooler - with good pads, the damn car stops so fast. too fast! its scary today - swapped back to stock pads, and gave her a good wash. man...1 track day = an entire weekends preparation/cleaning afterwards. oil change coming tomorrow! |

I made a real effort to get out and drive my Z this weekend rather than having it sit around like I have been and driving my Fit
Felt good to get to take her out with the weather still being so nice in SoCal |

Put my center cubby back on after a long retrofit and it's still not done.
And here is a teaser for what's coming.( It's not the color it's going to be) |

Finally got around to installing my new sport brakes on my touring.
Full Z1 package.

Got my first oil change today at 3765 miles! It worked out that 3750 miles was almost exactly six months and I think I'm going to stay on the every six months schedule regardless of miles. This first winter the Z won't see any snow so there will be lower miles but I'll likely be purchasing a winter wheel and tire package before next winter.
