It should only beep if you have low pressure in one tire, not when it doesn't detect any sensors.

I have a 2003 Performance model, and thus TPMS. I did not mount the sensors in my winter wheel/snow-tire setup. And, without the sensors in place, I do not get any audio beeping or a dash light. The only thing I see is “-------“ in the LCD display for the tire pressure window. Perfect.

I am beginning to think that the ’03 model is the best Z… no interference from TPMS, easily modified cubby for LCD screen-mounting, etc. I don’t think I’ll be changing out my ’03 Z in the near future (40K miles and going strong).

In general, no it's not annoying at all. The light comes on after about 45 minutes of driving. With the stereo blaring all the time, I've never heard it beep.
My stock 17's (enthusiast model) have tpms. I just spent 100 bucks to switch it over from my old rims to my new rims to get rid of the light(it annoyed the **** out of me) so I have a spare set if you want to buy it.
