I had an annoying plastic buzz in the rear hatch so I tore the plastics out to track it down. While in there I removed the hatch weight, installed bumpers to help the hatch pop open and Installed a flash controller for the high mount stop light in the spoiler to further annoy drivers behind me.
The controller rapid flashes then slow flashes before going solid all in about 4 seconds (It also has a delay for stop and go driving). It fit nicely where the weight used to be and hopefully will keep unwanted visitors out of my rear!

The bad news is the buzz is still there. Horrible quality video below! :D

Yesterday was ordering springs and spacers :) And pickup my friends Camaro which had a new exhaust installed. Really beastly sound..

Hopefully I can get the Z cleaned up today!

Got my Z in the air for some hardcore weight reduction (AC system coming out, among other things).

Tried out the front and rear (center) jacking points for the first time.. the front one is a little hard to figure out, rear one was perfect.

Also fixed a stripped bolt in the passenger side window regulator clamp, fixed a broken windshield wiper linkage support and took my hood off for more room during the aforementioned weight reduction adventure. Looks totally tuner now... ha!

Finished up my engine cover today. I think it came out pretty good.

Scorpion, what did you use for the pinstripe?

I personally would remove all of the hood/roof/hatch ones and just leave one going alongside the sides of the car but that's my style..

I'm tossing around the idea of a very faint stripe along the sides for my Z :)

went back and added three switches to replace my dummy switches. left one turns on the heads up display, second one gives me the option to turn the leds off (they are only powered up when the parking lights/headlights are on), and 3rd switch isnt being used... yet. I also cleaned up the wiring underneath the switches.

Drove my mother-in-law to work this morning...... she was hearing a really loud banging noise and was looking around like "what is that?"

I'm sitting there going...

::MAYDAY MAYDAY I'm under attack I'm under attack! Yellow neon with massive Fart Cannon just broadsided me I'm going down! MAYDAY MAYDAY::

The look on her face...

Dropped her off for vinyl repair and tint. Contacted the body shop were I had her repainted less than a month ago and sent them the picture below.

Road noise was my goal, too. Texas is a big place and it takes a while to get somewhere. It'll be nice to have the car somewhat quiet while cruising 80 mph with the wife, which means I can't have the windows down.

Lots of info on this, but I can confirm that PSS tires dramatically reduced road noise. I'm on PSS a/s plus and love the sound.
