Melody is in San Antonio this weekend. I've just been doing some housework, cleaning up the garage, and some interior work on the car today. No plans to go anywhere. I'm thinking about washing it but it's supposed to rain tomorrow.

Changed my oil and did a under hood and under vehicle inspection. All is well.

Took some speaker spl measurements and then noticed my battery cover had been slammed under the hood by the dealer during my last visit bending the plastic cover in the process. Is it really that hard to put things back together right before the vehicle leaves the dealership? Now I have to order a new cover but thankfully they aren't more than a few bucks and it didn't bend or warp the aluminum hood.

Got up close and personal with the underside on my Z. Swapped out my ART pipes for Fast Intentions resonated high flow cats. Having a lift sure would have been nice.

Good deal, SR. Did the HFC get rid of the drone?

The cats tamed the sound a good bit. I can still hear the drone around 2k, but it is much better and tolerable. The ART pipes make a wicked sound, but just a little too over the top for me. The resonated cat is much smoother. Not as deep or loud. It's a more refined sound, where the ART pipes were a raw sound.

Got my test pipes installed yesterday. The Nismo exhaust sounds awesome with them!

Today I finished up the install of a Kenwood amplified subwoofer, the KSC-SW11. Haven't driven the car since but it sounded good in my garage!
