Default My Z Story =]..

started in 2008 when the 370z first debuted and i was obsessed with it. i was 17 years old i bought my first car which was an acura intgera 1990 lol. sold it and made some profit after that i thought i could make some money from doing that. so i started buying and selling cars. i went through many honda civics and integras and made double profit on every car. i went through a nissan 350z last year and just a couple months i had a 300zx twin turbo 385hp and once i sold that i went and put my down payment on my dream car. the nissan 370z! 40th anniversary! it feels so weird in such a good way that this car is finally in my garage after 4 years of obsession and drooling everytime i saw it on the road. i got this car on my own by hustling my way up to finally getting what i always wanted and its just perfect 2 months before my 21st bday =D. had it for about 3 weeks now and i already have my resonator cut with custom piping, gtr red push to start, and LED interior and license plate package. enjoy the pictures.

If I had to guess, I'd say extremely loud and a lot of drone. Congrats, OP

OP:

You are on track to extrapolate this method to your entire life. You will be nearly unstoppable. Use the attitude you did for the Z to obtain a business, then a home, then whatever else.

Congratulations young man.

I did the same thing and love the sound of it. Gets compliments all the time on how good it sounds by just doing a simple muffler delete. At just cruising you dont hear anything, but get into WOT and it opens up.

Be careful though some vendors might think you are reverse engineering their 20 inches or so of pipe that they spent 1000's of man hours designing, so dont bother asking if you can just buy a burnt tip from them, they will say you are copying them. LOL. I am just going to to burn my own.

OP, I started with the same car. 91 DA9, which I still have and use as my rainy day car. What the one guy said about keeping the drive/motivation, he is totally right. Keep it up. I pushed hard and own a business and should be taking over another location in about 2 weeks. I will be 30 in 2 months. You have started sooner then me so keep it up and you will do good things, trust me.

By the way, BEAUTIFUL CAR!

No resonators doesn't have much drone at all. I have a custom midpipe and it just makes it louder and sound like a True VQ. Not the sissy stock sound.

Actually this mod is no muffler... not a non-resonator. Resonator is on the midpipe. Not sure how that'll sound?

But hey congrats on ur new ride. Enjoy.
