Thanks man! I thought it would be raspy but it isn't that much. lol I'll be getting the Amuse Titanium X pipe and hope that it sounds better after. I'm also thinking about Meisterchaft rear muffler. Are there any other companies that make an axelback for the Z?

Not that im aware of, sounds like some good plans ahead. I thought I picked up some rasp on my High flos but it seems they are more with test pipes. Although some is there especially when in garage and revved. The sound in garages def make the Z sound monstrous. Love it.

So nice since redline came out with the mt-85 in the past had to mix two formulas. Swap out gear oil next for that real buttery feel. Did both Zs last weekend and brake and clutch swap for some dot 4. Oh...never mind those funky bleeders by mita its a piece of crap. Old fashion two man bleeder job.

im on OEM pads as well, but the SS lines are another valuable mod. i cant say how great they are. smooth and consistent pedal feel makes the car feel entirely different. our sport brakes are pretty good as it is, but with the SS lines it feels AMAZING
