I'm looking to get the Nismo Track Exhaust for my Z. I've seen the comparison videos and after listening to them all, the nismo sounded the best in my opinion. Does anyone here have it and what are your thoughts? Also what kind of back pressure is introduced or eliminated/reduced over stock?
I was at a wheel shop recently and someone there who has a Q50 and a VR30 said that because of the way the engine was designed blow off valves are good for the engine. Can anyone verify this?
It would I agree. That how it is stock and I can see it. If I do 40 in the rear would that cause problems like rubbing? My ride height is currently 4.5" from wheel rim to fender.
I'm looking at the Rays Nismo 57CR wheels for my Z. Z1 recommends 19x9.5 +25 in the front and a 19x10.5 +12 in the rear but I don't know what size tire to get so there's no stretching and no rubbing on the fenders. I tried to use this site willtheyfit.com but I can't find the Performance wheel...
When I went the Lime Rock after each hot session I had to deflate the tires back to 32/29. I did notice that the left tires were inflating 3psi more than the right, since Lime Rock is mostly right turns, load goes to the left tires. Next time I go I want to try offsetting the pressure before...
I've been placing the jack puck just inside the pinch weld mark on a flatter surface of the frame. For the stands I've been placing them right on the pinch weld.
When I first got my Z I noticed some metal buzzing when the exhaust was cold, before installing the diff brace. I'd check for any loose bolts/nuts or connections.
When I go to big Z meets, I see the generations of people and the Z's they have. Younger people 20s-30s usually have 350/370s with some 300s here and there. 40-50s have Z's from the 80's and early 90's Then the real old timers have the 1970s Z's. Of course there are exceptions but just what...
Pay attention to how you enter and exit the car. I had a scratch on my wheel on the lower left side of the wheel. I noticed it lines up perfectly to where my hips cross as I get out of the car.
I hope no one is trying to drive an AT on the track without using the paddles in manual mode. In auto mode the 9AT is made for street (even then it can get a little annoying).
