lol, you're about to get yelled at for not posting in the dedicated thread, but that a good setup. It's not too far off from mine.

Yeah. I know, but after fifteen years, I took a chance.

What are your numbers?

abm89 · 04-21-2024, 02:42 PM

19x9.5 +22 and 19x11 +22. Full specs are in that signature link if you have any other questions.

Finally got replacement resonators and flex joints welded into my Invidia Gemini exhaust since they were rattling and leaking. BUT now I have a real annoying drone from 1800-2500 RPM. UGH. I didn’t think that swapping resonators, despite the new ones being aftermarket & slightly different size, would cause a drone like this. The pipes did need to be forced into alignment more than usual and I relied on the bolt clamping at the flanges to “pull” it all together… I wonder if the extra tension/preload on the exhaust is causing some drone?

My setup is Invidia Gemini + non-res test pipes but the car is still fairly loud during normal driving. Actually considering a cheap OEM exhaust to see how I like it paired with test pipes. This would probably make me lose some power with my supercharged setup though…

Sorry for the rant!

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!

SeeThruHead · 05-08-2024, 11:50 PM

Full track Autoslalom

abm89 · 05-09-2024, 10:52 AM

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.

ZontheRocks · 05-10-2024, 03:46 PM

Great shots of the Z!

TreeSemdyZee · 05-10-2024, 04:34 PM

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.
