Lovely car and great photos. That looks like a lot of camber on the front.
You know what you're doing to me don't you.

camber;
-1.3 fr & -1.8 r
I've almost got the chassis tuned the way I like it (far from OE spec)
- more camber & less toe makes Z car handle like it's on rails.

LOL.
yeah, that seems to be lots of camber. I soon have to get the G done along with the new PS2's and have some changes to make as well. I had some comments about my camber (lots) when my car was on the hoist last weekend.

The OE toe settings are quite high especially in the rear...
I supose to help stabilize a short wheelbase car for neophytes.
(high toe = tire wear on these cars)
With the toe dialed back it becomes a blast to drive with much better turn in.
& then there's throttle stear

Age, car fondness... whatever.
I think I already had my mid life crisis. That's when I bought the G. Is there such a thing as a second one though? At least I'm not drooling on the key board yet.

Well.... I finally have my homelink buttons again
It seems pretty minor, but one thing I really missed on the Z was the lack of homelink.
& really didn't like the separate remotes....
Anyway.....
On the Z there's a blank dash panel piece out of view... perfect for some buttons
I picked up a HL module from e-bay ~$40.
...something like this one
I didn't use the original trim piece though, just cut the lower dash panel for the buttons & led.
On the back, I used a couple of layers of the 3M double sided trim tape to get the spacing right.
PRESTO.... I have my 3 door homelink again
