Question Anyone hearing noise from passenger seat area when going fast?

It kinda sounds like: "slow down!" or "you're going too fast!"



My wife is not a fan of fast cars.

Oh well, I can save the fast stuff for when she's not around.

My wife is also going through a break-in period, mostly becoming accustomed to higher G's. All sorts of gyrations, grabbing and stomping and reaching for the dash. Very positive attitude, however, and I expect that by the time I start reaching for higher RPMs, she'll be ready for Phase II....

Z33, any info on Northern VA owners meeting up anywhere? It would be cool to see some different colors cruise around together (however, I have Silverstone too).

mikersoft,

Mind like a rusty steel sieve, I vaguely recall seeing a mention of a meet in Midlothian circa 12 October, but I don't have anything more specific than that. It would be great to see some more Z's. Got mine on the 4th, and have only seen one other (Chrome Silver) around town, although I know of two others and have heard that there are at least a dozen local.

I've normally got a short commute (this used to be a good thing), so I've been chauferring my wife on her gym days to pick up a few miles, Herndon to Ashburn Village and back, twice. Not a long drive, but she's wide awake by the time we arrive in the morning...

I get the "what was that for" while reving the engine at a light and "you're going to ruin your tires" after chirping the tires into second, from the girl I'm dating.

I hear ya.. this car's front end is a serious bug magnet. I drove from Bristow (near Gainsville) to Williamsburg & back yesterday, and brought home about pound of bug carcasses!!!

On the Northern VA meeting thing, I suppose we should just start a new thread. Actually, it should include the whole DC area. It looks like it may be nice on Saturday or Sunday.
