I've always been a huge fan of the Voltex rear diffuser and have contemplated switching over to it a many times. It looks like you're running a Tomei with it too, how much cutting was required to get the Voltex to not contact the Tomei? With the TS style, I had to cut far too much out just to get it to work.

It's dirty from driving in the rain but still looks good to me.

I can't see your pic at work but I've seen some pics of your z before, it was nice.
People can't believe I've kept mine stock all these years(11), I just haven't needed to change anything, I don't push the car hard enough to upgrade the suspension and the VQ makes more than enough power to keep me elated and I think it's a beautiful car stock.

I'm still on the Hankook RS-3 tires and would love to have your TE's.

I actually didn't have to do much to the diffuser to make it fit the exhaust. Since it's the single canister, I just had to trim a small portion of the diffuser. I'm actually having a high flow cat section for my XYZ pipe extended 1.25" to push the exhaust out a little further, and trimming of the diffuser may not have been necessary.

Honestly, I'm in love with my Federal 595RS-R tires. They're dirt cheap, and hook up really well in the corners. They're rated at a 140, but they're MAYBE a 120 treadwear. The reason I say maybe is that they could be lower than that.
