Talking New parts=new Z feel for me!!

SO...finally got all of my parts installed: Hotchkis TVS kit, Tokico HP shocks, Motordyne XYZ pipe with HFC, Berk TPs, and Greddy SE exhaust. I want to thank Motordyne, Advanced Racing Tech., Assultech, Berk, and the Z Store for how amazing their service was!! They kept me posted on delays, were fast with answers to questions, super easy to deal with and had great deals.

Car rides SO much better. Didn't realize how much of a beating the car too prior. Used to just bounce around, much more planted and I don't feel like I am going to go skipping of the road if I hit a bump when turning. I know the drop isn't much, but already dragging on some entrances to driveways/parking lots/speed bumps.

SOUNDS :shock::shock: amazing!! Slight rasp at WOT through about 500-1k RPMs around 4-5K, but not sure this isn't something rubbing (gonna seek some input from Motordyne). The Greddy looks fantastic IMHO.

I will supply a teaser of the SE, then when I clean her up, I will post a pic of the slight drop and more.

*Next up, spacers, black roof, repaint the front, and bronze rims.*

Well....I would BUT........

The other night I was moving stuff around in the garage, and the old Y-pipe fell against the front fender and did a nice lil scratch and dent!!

SO, the car will soon be in the shop getting the front end repainted (really needed it anyway). When I get that done, I will shoot tons of pics. The car goes in soon, but if I get a chance to shoot some before it goes in I will.

PS, the SE sounds GREAT with the XYZ pipe with HFC and the Berk TPs!!!
