yea i like what the one guy in the 370 one suggested with practicing on a spare piece of stainless steel and get your technique i guess down lol then go onto the real thing. i've though about this but since my Z is blue i like how the silver tips pop. blue on blue would be hard to notice i think.

Mine passenger side cat O2 sensor was cross threaded from the factory, ended up having to out the car in a vise grip and use a breaker bar and a wrench to get it out. It completely smoothed the area where the threads used to be, with no hope of re-threading it so I had to overnight another O2 sensor to get to work the next day. I found an NKG one on rockauto.com for about $180 shipped. Major PITA.

I've watched clips in this thread. Can someone put up a comparison clip between CF and non CF?

dmhenderson 10-18-2012 04:45 PM

They're going to sound the same if that's what you're asking. It's a look/weight thing.

Incorrect. SS and cf have different sounds.

dmhenderson 10-18-2012 05:57 PM

oh really? Go figure.

:iagree:

Envy enlightened me on that subject a couple pages back henderson ;) I'd love a comparison video though! If it's really a big difference, I might have to upgrade! Rep to whoever finds/makes one! :tup:

dmhenderson 10-18-2012 07:26 PM

I'm sticking with steel. I don't really like the carbon fiber "look" all that much. Just personal taste and I love the exhaust note on the steel cans.

I don't have access to anyone local with a SS since there aren't many Z's in my area or I'd gladly make a literal side by side vid

djtodd 10-18-2012 08:32 PM

I'm willing to make one if someone in the SC area with a SS setup wants to meet ;)

JungleZ 10-18-2012 10:04 PM

carbon fiber sounds way better in my opinion, what the Z is supposed to sound like a nice exotic purr, not too deep and bassy.

invader19 10-18-2012 11:19 PM

You guys don't have to be in the same area to compare.
Just make sure 2 different people use the same make/model of camera in the same style environment.
