  1. Sound deadening

    NVX, Siless and Kilmat have all performed equally to or better (not just acoustically but also ease of install) than the higher-dollar, often hybrid lines from folks like Dynamat. I feel like all the big brands had to make up things to justify their price points when even home depot foil-backed...
  2. Sound deadening

    Absolutely, but I'd try to get up around the sides over the wheel arches & shock tower. Those rear wheel wells, when deadened, made a tremendous difference suppressing road noise. If you can suppress it early (at the wells/trunk) the vibrations can't make their way to and rattle all the...
  3. MAJOR Rant: Nissan Black paint on the Z stinks

    Hey man the spray on ceramic is kind of terrible when it comes to anything more than great hydrophobic beading and shine. For real protection try legit ceramic. I use CarPro UK 3.0 on everything and I have zero discipline when it comes to removing bugs or poop. I just double-bucket wash when...
  4. 23' Manual Perf - 5,200 miles, Near $30k in best of breed mods: $50k!

    Wait a second, wait juuuust a second. Are you telling me that if I were to take my Z into a dealership to trade it in they wouldn’t give me what my car plus mods are worth? As bat crazy as that is if so, are you also saying that if I told them I was suffering from some sort of hissing sound like...
  5. 23' Manual Perf - 5,200 miles, Near $30k in best of breed mods: $50k!

    You are absolutely correct, which is why mine is very reasonably priced. I’m not sure if it was intended but sharing the “deal” you got serves to bolster the justification for jumping on mine. I’m glad you feel you got a good deal on yours, it’s a fantastic platform with great potential… If you...
  6. 23' Manual Perf - 5,200 miles, Near $30k in best of breed mods: $50k!

    FWIW folks I may be putting it and the trailer on BAT via MotorVault. I told them I need $55k for the car and trailer so $55k takes them both but that’s my absolute bottom. If I go BAT it won’t be for at least 2 weeks so deal stands until it’s listed.

    I've also created a shared folder on google drive which has a ton of install photos that SOHO took as part of their work. Here is the link: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1BVzvP04KmUlO11p7nMvS2edVN8c1DGw7?usp=sharing

  9. Sold: 23' Manual Perf - 5,200 miles, Near $30k in best of breed mods: $50k!

    Hey folks, this car has never been on a track nor even launched. My brother and I acquired the car new. After a religious break-in it went directly to the incredible folks at SOHO. We started with over $20k in best-of-breed parts. SOHO tuned via EcuTek and we couldn't have been happier with the...

    Oh hell yeah, favorite part of drive!
  11. Staying_Tuned's 23' Z Perf Manual Build

    Trip to CMP from KY involved roughly 10 hours of driving by the time we got tot he hotel, car performed amazingly. My brother’s RS, he’s an incredible driver and the car absolutely screams. Missing the R35 (at times) but she’s in good hands.
