OK, dropped the front as far as I could without rubbing at full lock or over sharp bumps. Hope this satisfies the "go lower" brigade! It's not Wozzer low but I'm pretty happy with how it sits. My wheels are pretty wide so I will need to do some arch rolling if I want it any lower. As for how it's done - 1. Take one set of KYB AGX shocks. 2. Add Ground Control coilovers with Eibach Springs - http://www.ground-control-store.com/products/description.php/II=64 3. Slide the threaded collar over the base of the shock, slide on the spring, install the new top spring seat (some grinding required on the stock front seat to fit the new Ground Control seat). 4. Presto! You now have quality coilovers for less than 600 quid. :hyper: 5. Adjust about half way, lock everything down, put the wheels back on, check the height. 6. Take the wheels off and lower some more. 7. Repeat until hard things start to rip the cr@p out of your tires. 8. Bring her back up two turns. Next step - Anti roll bars and adjustable arms to get the allignment right. Took her a fast drive last night to Portsdown Hill, and the improvment in handling was incredible!

I'm not positive. They came on the car when I bought it. They have "Bozway" written on the center caps, but I have never heard of this brand. Do look nice when their cleaned up...

Yes I agree, but the good thing about the Ground Control set up is I can set them at any height. After pulling all four wheels off twice and adjusting them a little lower each time, I figured I would let them settle for a few days and then do a final adjustment.

Just finished installing new KYB's and Ground Control adjustable coilovers with Eibach springs. First pic is with the original suspension. May have gone a bit too low in the back, what do ya think?

Front shock absorber removal
Just changed mine today! You dont want to undo the center bolt, that holds the spring seat to the shock shaft. Undo the two bolts on the outside of the hole and it will drop right out. If your not sure what I mean I can post a picture.

Z made a 10 year olds day
Great one Chewie! You definitely built up some good Karma. :bow: When my boys were smaller I used to pick them up on the motorcycle, and now and then I pick up my daughter in the Z from secondary school. She calls it the "cool car". The grins on their faces as we pull away with all the other kids pointing and staring were priceless.

What Kind Of Brain Do You Have?
That is really strange, after a little practice I can make it go clockwise or counter clockwise at will. The trick is to just watch out of the corner of your eye and catch her foot swing to the right or left and then focus in.
