Man it feels good to be "motoring" my Z. I LOVE THIS CAR!!! It chaps my azz that there are so many negative things said about the 370. Its really a great machine and my modifications have only made it that much better! It just feels amazing to drive and the attention it generates could rival a Ferrari, I swear. Yesterday was the first time out in it in awhile and, no lie, everywhere I went people felt compelled to comment on her I even had the guy that owns the deli near my place of employment (a Corvette Grand Sport owner) fawning over my Z. Im gonna leave a issue of Nissan Sport mixed in with his Vette magazines next time Im there Today I had some youngster driving with his cell phone out either video taping me or taking pics. I swear this thing boosts the sh1t outta my ego, "like it needs it" as my girlfriend would say

Dang, Mr. Enlightenment. More than half the stuff I do around the house is what may be considered "skirt work". I have yet to wear one when vacuuming, although I thought about donning a loincloth whilst scrubbing floors a time or two.

wife and i both work full time. i do most of the cleaning, bills, and maintenance around the house and the wife does the grocery shopping, maintaining house computer/network system, cooking, and helping kids with their homework 90% of the time.

in return i get 100% of the garage, one dedicated room for my music stuff, she gets a dedicated office in the house, 90% of the basement for her hobbies and manga library, excersise equipment.

no complaints here.

So that "pendant" goes into the rear fog-light-slot???

So which one is quieter????

they work together as a system to cancel out noise to make the particular tone for your exhaust system so it's hard to say which is louder. it's more of a cancellation system if you know wat i mean. if you ever fired up a car with no resonators or muffler you will know how loud your car really is. hahaha.
