Took off the tire stickers, sanded off what was left of the glue, and switched to purple lug nuts.

Drove it to work, tested out the brakes twice, once on a chipmunk and another time on a squirrel... Would ruin my whole day if I killed a furry friend on my way to work... (luckily I don't live on a very busy street street because getting rear ended would also put a damper on my Tuesday)

I washed the Z and waxed it yesterday. Felt good to get her clean again. She was pretty dirty with all the rain we've been getting.

Also installed new Z1 slotted rotors and StopTech pads for the rear wheels.

Post an update on sound quality. I'm thinking of picking up a set of these and was curious if it can remove the rasp to produce a smoother exhaust note.

i had kinetix and their lifetime warranty was a joke, passenger one cracked (i sent them pictures) and they told me to take it to a local place to have it welded, that it would be cheaper then sending mine in. i tried to get them to send me a replacement (and even give them my cc info if i didnt return the cracked one) and they wouldnt. needless to say shortly after, i replaced them with art pipes

What year Z do you have and how did you go about getting this done? I'm assuming it's above an 03-04 due to the radio controls. That wheel looks suuuper clean.

Yeah it's pretty odd seeing as my 04 G35x sedan had them but my 04 350z touring does not I only have the right hand set. I'm almost positive that the first gen z33 does not get the radio controls on any model.

I'm still interested in the wheel though as it looks slightly thinner and just all around significantly better than the Z wheel where did you get it from?

You can find it here, really cheap too

Ordered it 13th April and got it 2th June.
So almost 2 months time but it was worth it tbh

Installed Z tube and the blue couplers. Looks pretty cool to me. Motordyne MREV2 and 5/16" spacer on the way.
