The Z is already a nice car stock. There are more important things in life you know.
Would you spend your money on mods or spend that money for your family.

Mods definitely. I would be lying if I said I wasn't jealous. I totally am, I wish my parents weren't broke as hell and would have bought me a ballin' Z when I was your age. I had to work my *** off to get where I am today

See because my dad put family first instead of "mods" or any other material things.. He was able to provide his son the car of his dreams.

Yea, well, my dad can beat up your dad! So :P!

Actually my dad has been awesome, instead of buying me a new car he's helped me tremendously in working on my older ones. Largely in part to him I am able to turn a wrench on my own car instead of paying people to do stuff, i.e. turning 4 bolts and inserting washers :P.

Back on topic, do you think you can take another pic? I can't really see what the shop did there

I don't think there's anything wrong with that sentiment, but it is a little contradictory with the little wishlist in your sig, don't you think? Per your wishlist, you'd like to get Berk HFCs and a Stillen CBE. Yet here you are saying that there are more important things in life and it's not worth spending your money on mods. So, put the two together, and it means you wish for things that you don't consider worthwhile, right? That seems a little strange to me. If mods aren't worth spending your money on, why wish for them?

Thanks for catching that! All I needed out of the Z was the sound that it needed. Now I have it and I'm glad I didn't spend 2k+ for it.
Wishing is way different than actually hitting the checkout button in an online store

What I wished for was the sound.. not necessarily the items. (Berk+Stillen)

Gotcha. Makes sense. My Stillen headers are for sale, btw, in case you're interested. I'm guessing you don't want to spend the money, but I figured I'd throw it out there anyway.

So what if I ask some random shop to make my exhaust louder and they have no idea what to do. What should I tell them? Like where to add spacers?

Print these pics and give them to a mechanic!

Well buy 16 washers.. tell them to put them in between where the muffler bolts up to the rest of the exhaust. Tell them 4 on each bolt. voila.
