Hey, how come Keith (ITLGO2) isn't speaking up on this thread? As far as I know he is the expert on thongs. That may be Keith in the picture.

rick the cool thing about all the work you have done is you have just about finished doing all the things a 70k mile car needs done sans wheel bearings. so you hopefully will be good to go for a while .i remember that you had adjustable camber rods on your car. I might be wrong but you could raise the ride height on the rear by the springs and then re adjust the camber with the rods . call corey to ck for sure . i may have an extra set of stk spring bolts ,if so i will send them with the shocks .

Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining. These are special cars and are totally worth the work. I feel very privileged to be able to own one. I've also just wore out a set of Vredestiens on the rear. I only got about 10,000 miles out of them but those were 10,000 hard miles. I probably lost most of that at the drag strip. Taking it up to 179mph for extended periods of time didn't cost me any rubber but it sure did bring out the suspension issues that needed attention. But I have noticed the prices for vreds are on the rise. And I'm going to get another set before the prices go through the roof.

,i know how you feel though, you get 1 thing fixed then its something else . i was just trying to give you hope that you have got most of the stuff done that ,i know i had to do when i got my first zr1 that was at the 70,000 mile stage . what i tried to tell myself was i really am learning a lot about a car i love . and except for doing the deep part of the motor ie heads and rebuild .its really not to awful hard to wrk on . i find messing with my town car (honda accord ) tougher to fix .
