First one. Nice work That's kinda why I got the early reservation: few days of down time to relax before things kick off.
Oh noes! Good luck on the repairs

Finally got done retouching my photo from over the weekend after a fun spirited drive. Got my Swift springs and STM exhaust installed.
Can't thank Wheels3309 here on the forum enough. We both definitely learned a lot doing springs. Mainly that a spring compressor needs to be compressed beyond hell to tighten a Swift enough to put the top hat back on. Got scary for a little. Here is my shot. I should have his Nismo edited and up by the end of the day. Gorgeous gorgeous gorgeous car. Photos don't do either of ours justice.

Yep... definitely learned a lot from that exercise... it'll make the installation of mine that much easier when the time comes! It was a fun day. Your car definitely has a nice stance now and the proper sound as well!

That was a wicked fun experience. I may do some research on different spring compressors though since theirs no way we should have had to compress them that far. Hopefully next time we can do a truly proper cruise when the roads aren't soaked. I was struggling for a bit with the rear coming loose. I never saw your car lose traction. I was in awe haha.

Come to NY and tell me to get them tinted. I'll let you pay the tickets for me when I get one every other week. I'll be lucky to get away with my exhaust. The cops here don't mess around with stuff like that. Makes my life miserable.
It's useless to get legal tint since it's only 70%. Yet the rear can be whatever. NY makes no sense....

After loosing my clutch pedal at the track (high plains raceway near denver) I finally bled my clutch.
Problem solved (I have the zspeed CSC so I wasn't too worried). That CSC gets hot though ! I'll have to be more consistent in bleeding in new RBF 600 before track days. I ordered the z1 clutch upgrade (fork style throw out mechanism) on the drive home from the track and have added it to my backlog of upgrades for fall when I hanger the Z for winter.

70% doesn't seem realistic.

Section 375 (12-a) of the NYS Vehicle and Traffic Law does not allow a windshield or front side windows that are dark. The windshield and front side windows cannot block more than 30% of the light. Seventy percent or more of the light from the outside must pass through the window. This law also applies to the rear window unless the vehicle has outside rear-view mirrors on both sides. The mirrors must give the driver a full and clear view behind the vehicle. If the vehicle is classified as a station wagon, sedan, hardtop, coupe, hatchback or convertible, the rear side windows must also allow at least seventy percent of light from the outside to pass through the window.

You have absolutely nooooo idea. Basically any mod is considered illegal here. My exhaust is considered to loud for sure, but motorcycles can run straight pipes for days without any consideration. Everything here is halfassed.
