Well took the Z out for a little test of the Z1 MAF's, it pulls nice & smooth, but to be honest I don't drive it enough to give a real comparison, but for $65 shipped, how could I go wrong. I 'm happy with them.

Mounted my CarbonSignal cf ducktail spoiler. Used a combination of two-sided tape and silicon.

Very happy!

Here's a quick shot! I've got some more pics, and will be uploading later. I've got to get out and drive in this sunny 63 degree weather!
Looks good happy!

Congrats, looks great. This or the AeroJacket III are what Im going to end up going with. Personally I like how the AeroJacket comes to more of a point in the middle. Great choice though, Im a big fan. +1

Hey thanks for the congrats guys! I've been really looking forward to this mod!

What kind of silicon did you use? This will come in handy when I mount more aero bits. Looks super good! I'm thinking I might pick one of these up!

I know it would, but I've got to keep it relatively mild. I've had some really loud setups in the past, and my wife wouldn't ride with me. The drone always made her nauseous. I've been considering the Motordyne Art pipes!

It sounds sick! A totally satisfying growl! So many others have said it, but I have to as well: This is how the Z was intended to sound! I'm so proud of her! She's all growed up! (*sniff*) Synchro Rev sounds AMAZING pulling up to the red lights!

I have noticed an immediate increase in power across the entire band (at least the range I've taken it to). I'm waiting for four to five cooling cycles to pass before I bang on it. I'll know better then!

Bought them from forum member CC_370z. I suck at posting pics because I'm too cheap to pay for hosting service

Here is a pic on CC_370z's car. Look the same, only mines cleaner

I just used some 3M black silicone. Picked it up at Autozone.

Well Brantly, I don't plan on ever taking it off.

Seriously, if I really needed to get it off, I could do it. When I changed to a Nismo bumper, I gave a buddy of mine my EVO-R cf fang cover. It took some patience to get it off, but it came off.

My biggest fear is my new $600 spoiler flying off on the freeway one day. It's not going anywhere right now.
