spudly13 Posted February 26, 2012 Report Share Posted February 26, 2012 You have to loosen the top nut while it is on the car... DO NOT TAKE IT OFF, only loosen, and even when its loosened and off the car... SPRING COMPRESSORS ARE MANDATORY!! TRUST US ON THIS ONE. Impact works great.... As far as spring compressors go i live in stanwood and have a set if you wanna borrow them, but there not MANDATORY just stand back and it all pops apart :) Good progress, cant wait to see the thing a bit lower Link to comment

I would start with a gallon, should get you most if not all of it and cheaper then buying it by the quart BOlt on camber plates? Got a pic? I was only aware of the camber plates that need to be welded in. Seems to me any bolt on camber plate wouldnt have much camber adjustabilty in it? (in a z anyway ive seen them on nice coils for other cars before) Link to comment

Alex Datsun Posted February 29, 2012 Report Share Posted February 29, 2012 Its funny everyone post that pic of yutas car but he's not even on those hayashis anymore. Hardparking a 510 isnt any better, Slammed is a style not the smartest but one of the "coolest" . If you make it a lifestyle get neccesary stuff to make sure you dont break stuff like Invest in a skid plate,raise the motor, and even skidplate to protect the frame rails. I hope you do it like that black one you chopped it'll look hella bawse. Link to comment
