Installed the SPL rear traction links and Cusco under carriage brace. The Cusco brace probably won't do anything, but it looks nice. I'm hoping the traction links curb some of the wheel hop I've been getting.
Installed the Velossa Tech ram air scoop and the low freq BMW horn ala this thread. The horn sounds SO MUCH better now.
I got the scoop in black so it’ll blend in, pics with the flash so you can see it, and without the flash to see what it really looks like to an outsider.
When I first got the quickjack I figured I’d just use it when I needed to get the whole car in the air and I’d use regular jack and stands for when I just needed the front or rear. Nope! Quickjack for everything. Oil change, exhaust, suspension, braces, reflectors, whatever. It’s just so...
Speed Industry - bought a lot of parts there, most of the time it was fine, but their customer service is definitely lacking. It took months and many many phone calls and emails to finally get a refund for a downpipe that I sent back
Titan Motorsports - bought from them a few times, the latest...
Some early 2020 downpipes clocked the O2 sensor toward the block a bit too much. It was fine on the 2-port head, but on the 6-port head it places the O2 sensor dangerously close to the exhaust manifold. This was fixed on later versions and "2021" downpipes. I don't believe there's any reason...
Yikes, on stock tires it's actually slower than the GR86, that's bad. Even with new tires (from the SG review), the Z's track time is closer to the GR86 than it is to the Supra.
So now the narrative shifts again. The Z is not a Supra killer, it's not a straight line car, it's not a track car...
So slightly stiffer suspension, body kit, red accents in the interior, and wheels for an additional $10-17k ($60-67k total). Possibly more power, but if the 370Z is any indication, the difference will be minimal and it'll still have less power than the Supra.
It was a great way to prove their bias, and make literally every subjective "opinion" they hold suspect. I don't believe them for a second that the Z is actually a better driver's car, for example, since they've proven they can't be trusted.
Nothing. The problem is that many of the cars are rolling off of the assembly line with the alignment far out of spec. So just bringing the alignment into spec can make a world of difference.
My car in particular had a bad shimmy in the rear when hitting bumps, especially while cornering...
Lmao - don’t remind me, that was like watching a bad infomercial where the person is incapable of picking up a book without their “new and improved anti slip coating!”, and instead they just fumble it around for 5 minutes like a drunk infant with no thumbs.
