I was going to also, but i'm not sure 3x the money is worth the possible 5-10 more HP. with the savings a tune can be done...

Great stuff

happytheman · 06-01-2011, 08:51 PM

Washed and leaf blower/QD dried the Z today. Tomorrow I'll vacuum and wipe down the interior.

Need to purchase some other QD....Mothers sucks arse. Streak city.

Is yours otherwise stock with respect to intake and cats? What size resonators do you have? Last question: do you have any exterior clips of a drive by where your not pushing 5k rpm?

I have to ask: why is it that when everyone posts clips of a drive by or pull away they have to "launch" and scream by at 5k+ rpm? While that's nice to hear from time to time..it gets old..quick. I'm more interested in hearing an exhaust under normal driving conditions.

Ok, I'll get off my soapbox now.

Yup, pretty much stock otherwise.

I have 18" resonators...I got to drive behind my car which people rarely get to do, car sounded much quieter than I anticipated.

I am maybe doing a sound clip this weekend, I'll be sure to hit you up. I will say it sounds nice and tame with 18" resonators, amplifies the VQ and downshifting is where I feel the quality really shines

Oh please please please! I will hit you up with a rep for it if you do! Pass by and take off with normal driving!

If you feel up to it, 3k rpm pass by in third would be good. That's still better than the 6k pass bys that every one else deems necessary to record.

A guy complimented me on my 370 "zed". I said "Thanks, are you from Canada?" since I detected no accent.

His answer : "Top Gear". Can't complain he isn't speaking English.

Ran into a bigger badder nismo. Twin turbo. As strong as he pulled away from me I WANT ONE.

Talked to a local vinyl installer about doing a full matte black wrap. Waiting on a quote (OUCH)

Went to a mini car meet, and posed with Steve's (srbrubak) blue Z, then checked out some other cool cars including a Hennesey Camaro and a Kennebell blown SRT8.

kenchan · 06-01-2011, 11:28 PM

eerrr... i must get DSLR.

nice picts, G2Z!

nynhex- good job taking off spots. spots can potentially lead to paint etching.

so best to remove asap.

happytheman- i agree. not sure why they need to go down a 35mph road at 60mph+ to show off some fake exhaust...which doesnt even sound that good cause of the silencers the installer forgot to remove.

hahaha yah, you know which clip im talking about.
