What resonators did you replace? Those that came with the Gemini or OE?

I replaced the resonators that come on the Gemini y pipes. They were rattling and all warped on the inner perforated core.

Currently in the process of clamping on Vibrant bottle resonators to further tame the exhaust. They’re going on the Gemini mid pipes where there is the long straight sections of pipe

Gotcha, are the Gemini resonators not available?

They were going to sell me new Y pipes for $400 + international shipping. Not the resonators on their own. It was cheaper and much faster to have aftermarket resonators welded in.

HOWEVER, the resonators I chose were slightly different in size, and this caused some drone, unfortunately.

First drive tonight with the new Vibrant bottle resonators and the sound is tamer. No drone at all. I like it a lot. Even though the Gemini is “quiet”, it’s still a loud car since I have non-res test pipes, so I’m happy to add these resonators and make the car a bit more drivable. There’s an annoying rattle at WOT because my W brace is off and the heat shield isn’t fully fastened. Once that is back on, I’ll get a better sense of the sound at WOT

Went to my 5th track event with the Z at Thunderhill Raceway. Definitely fun and learning more with the car.

ZontheRocks · 05-08-2024, 02:06 PM

Nice track pics!

I would love to take my car back out on the track, but I’ve retired it for now. It’s a super daily I never drive because motorcycle lol.

I didn’t forget about the pics of the headlamp beam pattern so I apologize. I’ve been busy with work lately and just too tired.

Looks like a good kit.

Great shots of the Z!

Rather than spending a boatload of money on new wheels, I got mine repaired and repowdercoated.
I'm pretty stoked. There was a lot of pretty major curb rash and they got rid of all of it. Pretty amazing.

Rjk370z · 05-10-2024, 04:37 PM

^^Very nice! Are those from a different model Z? They look different.
