massapequa infiniti fixed it just yesterday (yea, i got to post that up). I sat down with the mechanic for about 2 hours.
Window regulator greese. I am guessing that I might have left the window open during some rain and the rain than washed the greese off the regulator.
we replaced the greese and the problem was solved. moves up and down very smoothly now and does not make that creeking noise.

btw.
mikee has the unrevised Z suspension. The Unrevised set is closer to the stock spring rate, so we assumed that it would be a good match for the stock shocks
NOTE: NISSAN "REVISED" THE 350Z SUSPENSION BECAUSE CUSTOMERS COMPLAINED IT WAS TOO "BOUNCY"
I have the revised suspension, and I do not have any complaints. The ride is stiffer, but that is no surprise

I took em off
we did not clean the taillight too well, and there was dirt+soap trapped underneth. i couldnt bare with it anymore so I removed it.
but I still have some pics...2 at night, one right after we installed it
^^^you can see how the overlays make the LED's much sharper because they prevent the entire housing from glowing

Sorry to be a busta but I had my reason. My wife is 6 1/2 weeks pregnant. If I knew, I would never of dropped it (I dropped it less than 5 weeks ag).
I am able to tolerate the z springs but lately I feel bad for my wife and my future baby having to deal with the stiff springs and horrible nyc bumps. I took a trip up to Boston this week with family and that was basically the last straw that made me decide to go back to stock. Went to Rudy's place and took care of it today. Also, did alignment. Camber is back to I think -.6 and -.9 or something (Haha...not my -2.5 and -2.6). Wheels are straight.
X owners out there, the z springs does look really nice on our car but I really didn't have much of a choice to keep it. Have more things in life that are more important at the moment. Hey, I've been there DONE THAT.
Just an update. Went over the same bumps that buckles on the z springs (hitting bump stops ?) today with the stock springs and it was sooooooo much more comfy. Kinda like floating through it. Handling dimenish with more body roll now. It's expected but with a kid on the way, I can't drive fast anyway.
