Well from stock cats and headers to LTH is a big jump...I'd say find a local club member and ride along. To get an in person feel on the sound/noise level.

wrap that plate in a good quality cf it will make a world of difference in the look. we did it on my buddies supra and it turned out great. love that "H" brace (dunno what its called).
i dont have any option for seat time in any other Zs as I am pretty much only one modding on island. thanks for the info though.

I'm still on the wall on keeping it...would wrap it but it's a pain playing with cf...brace is Stillen. It's different here...The club is huge and I had a good spectrum of exhausts to listen to and figure out what I wanted to follow! Shoots get some headphones and turn up the youtube videos

we didnt do real cf wrap on the aluminum plate. used a good quality 3m cf and it has held up great. wasnt hard to work with at all.
any plans for dyno runs in the near future. considering between the PPE and SG. things get expensive here so its not friendly to the wallet with trial and error.

Pretty good man. Just started getting the Z up and running again. Plans are in the works! Didn't the Z get dyno'd and tuned last night at Premier?

Thumbs up 3,000lbs -/+ 20lbs Nismo (dry)

So today had an opportunity to run away from it all with the wife...so I decided to drive my car, rather than the Charger.

After much needed alone time without the kids, and after lunch I decided to stop by the weight station...

So excited when I saw the numbers that it didn't cross my mind to get "proof" for the internet!

Let's break that down...3160 still had a stock cloth passenger seat (46lbs), about 70lbs of gas. Driver (220lbs) should weight 208lbs . I still have a full size battery(35lbs). there's a few more little tid bit things to replace with lighter items.

Just off that the car would be around the 3k level!!!

Also driving in stop/go traffic, and a few highway pulls then waiting at the quicky mart roughly 25 minutes of driving, with the car on and hood closed the car keeps cool in 85 degree weather!
