Does the band play in the tailpipe or the muffler? Option 2 sounds pretty wicked. But, I think my Z hears me typing kind words for another car.. I mean it sounds like garbage. Nothin like my beautiful Z..

stock exhaust doesn't sound that bad. IMO, a sedan like that needs to keep the volume down. Damn nice car. Get the exhaust too loud and people will think it's a punk drivin' a car daddy bought for him, know what I mean? If you're going to use this for work too.....keep it leanin' towards the sophisticated level.

I am partial to it.
Though Sean makes a great point

the Z I could see it. Like a Mustang, Camaro, Vette, etc. Something like a M3/5 or that Audi though. Enough to notice it but definitely not loud fits it better.

I got a friend who has a 03 Z. He's looking for test pipes, 19" wheels and tires, Z trunk interior pieces and some other stuff. Anyone have anything?

I wanted to ask, before the weather gets crappy...

Who wants to try and get some rolling free way shots? I'm trying to continue practicing with my photography. I've already got it all planned out on how it would happen, where it would happen, all we need is some decent weather and a clean Z.

I have UTR Stainless steal resonated TP's.
Also have a UTEC and Injen SES exhaust.

Warning, do not use the Injen SES with Test pipes or it will sound like my car.

I've seen your photos from an OU meet awhile back and they looked sweet.

I think some rolling highway shots would be cool.... let me know.

Mike,
My test pipes are spoken for, Johnny is taking mine...

I am down for some runs always you know that.
We need to get the new car (mikes) in on it.

Your buddy should really get the Utec...mods without it are not as strong.
Mike's car ran like crazy once Mike M (H8bumps) tuned it for him..

Also the 19' rims for sale in Minnesota below this thread are a GREAT deal.

You should come out to the milford meet tonight. You might be able to get some nice shots. I am up for running and its going to be a beautiful night.

No-one was going
I talked to Gary though.
He wants to have a meet during the winter at his place.

We will all shoot the $hit, and work on a few things in his heated garage...
He will post up about it...

Sorry you went Johnny...
