Aren't won or lose, I think you mean.

But yea, I guess you're right, maybe it's a bigger pain to raise the strut than I think it is. You have to take it off anyway, put it back on with washers? Or no?

I think my next mod will be the central 20 body kit in the front and rear, i think its a nice kit, looks classy and sporty. I decided to mod my Z because i was planning on getting a vette this month but i'm going to wait until next february and just get the GTR instead. Anyway, thanks for all the info that helped me decide on my mods.
if your getting a GTR...why waste money on a body kit??

thats what i meant lol. the 5/16 comes with washers already to raise you strut bar. the 1/2 inch spacer you have to buy a new strut bar completely.

my borla with test pipes sounds great so dont make a statement like that
My Fast intentions intimidator with non resonated invidia test pipes sounds like sex and has no rasp at all. You just need to have a resonated x pipe.

There's a really great deal going on eBay for the Turbonator. They're even throwing in a free Interfooler with every purchase.

Oh so here's my modification update:

I didnt actually get the popcharger yet, I thought I did but it turned out to be something else. I did however install the 5/16 spacer and iso-therm gasket.

I can't notice an increase of power or a difference in sound, however i'm still using the stock 05 airbox so i'm going to wait for my popcharger before I make any conclusions about this mod. I'll probably pick up the MREV2 just for kicks, but I'm going to wait a few weeks for that. (should have done that first as I now have to take my plenum apart again)
