What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Installed the SPC rear camber kit today. Started on the passenger side and the install went flawless. I took my time grinding out the toe bolt holes. Moved to the driver side and noticed that the bit wasn't really cutting well. I changed it out to a new one and continued grinding away. The driver side just didn't seem to cut away as good as the passenger but I finally finished. Went to go test fit the SPC toe bolt and BAM...I had spent all that time elongating the camber arm hole.

Frustrated I curse and go grab a beer.

Move back to the correct hole, mark my lines and start dremeling away. Again I notice the bit not cutting, so I curse again and run to Home depot and pick up another pack of two. Get home and carry on. Again the driver side just didn't seem to cut away as nicely. I just couldn't get a good angle so I ended up only grinding the inner side of the hole as I was getting frustrated. Install wasn't bad, with my screw up, lunch, beer, and trip to the store it took me 5hours and 3 dremel 115 bits.

Tomorrow I go get realigned. Going to aim for -1.8 rear camber. This should be the last of my suspension mods for awhile.
