Cool stuff:
B&M short throw shifter/Z32 shift ****

Eibachs/Konis set on full firm
Eibach camber bolts, -2 degrees front camber
Progress RSB
ebay FSTB, LTB2, Traux 4-point SFCs (no x-bracing)

300zx TT rear wheels all around, 16x8.5 +35
245/50ZR16 Falken ZE-912s
Hawk HPS up front, Goodridge SS lines and superblue to come soon

Totally *****in' TL bixenon retrofit into glass CE housings
Valeo Ultimate Wipers
Stock sidemarkers and tails (I list as a mod because no one has ambers any more)
20% tint on rear windows

Driver who is batshit nuts

I got it weighed-- 3320lbs w/me (175lbs) and half tank

Gay stuff:

I've just discovered some stuff with my car that will mean suspension has to wait until later in the summer if I even get it at all. I'll PM you.

Stock drivetrain

I got my *** handed to me by a stock 01 S4 on the way to Norcal, on the way back I beat the pants off a Cooper S and got obliterated by an A3 2.0T (guy had to have been modded) who I pissed off

Someday with a 3.5/headers/SSIM and tune I will be able to keep up with these fawkers... until then, still slow.

Sooo... what are you saying

I will wash it up soon enough, it's just a PITA as I don't have a place to wash it ATM besides a friend's house, and I have to park it on the street.

No, if it were "full stiff" I'd need a :wildhomo:

Luckily springs are stiff and dampers are firm

teehee!

I scrape with the cat and SFCs... I used to scrape with the LTB when I had decent compression travel (turd gen reds) but I don't at this point... however before I raised it up a bit my car couldn't straddle a tipped over can of coke if that tells you anything...

Oh yeah I'm sure I'll be faster than you even if you get a RMT
