The 370Z Weight Reduction Thread

[RCZ]

tvfreakazoid - It is unnecessary to quote the long picture messages, if you are going to quote something like that, please manually remove the pictures from the quoted message before you submit them. It adds clutter and since the browser has to display the pictures twice, it uses up valuable bandwidth from whoever put up the picture.

Also, you don't need to make separate messages to quote more than one comment. Hit the little quotations with the + sign next to the "quote" button for the ones you want to multi-quote. Then on the LAST comment you want to multi-quote, you press the actual "quote" button. What that will do is make a single message with all the quotes you wanted...

Its just a little annoying to have to scroll through2 comments and 9 big pictures to see your message "Thanks for the info" and "how comfortable are these seats"

You could have just made one message saying " Hey DDM thanks for the info, just one more thing..are the zeta III's comfortable?"

That is much easier to deal with, doesn't add clutter, nor does it eat bandwidth and its not annoying for the rest of us. That having been said, you should reserve different font sizes for when you are trying to emphasize the importance of something..its kinda annoying that all your comments are bigger than everyone else's font... That might just be me though.

^ many people have posted the same request, but most lack the diplomacy.

i didnt feel as if you were trying to come off in a rude manner... but i was about to do the same thing as you.. i guess everyone has to learn.. hopefully he takes it the right way.

Stock Catalytic Converters = 21 lbs.

[RCZ]

That is one fat cat... yay!

What went in its place????

[TerribleONE]

Mmmmm ya did you replace it? id sure hope so since those things are not fun to take off.. thanks again for weighing all these parts!

[M.Bonanni]

Yeah, they were replaced with Berk Technology High Flow Cats (11 lbs. for the pair). Will be posting a group buy thread, dyno results, etc. within the next few days.

[TerribleONE]

I would love to get high flows, but i think it would make the car too loud...

They don't make a huge diffference in sound, but a noticeable one. I will post a dyno video sometime next week so you can hear it.

Wow.. Stock cats are really ugly.

Danke!

[RCZ]

Can you make a non dyno vid man? The Dyno whine really drowns subtle changes in exhaust tone.... You should make a before and after video...

I'm not really interested in cats....when you have catless pipes let me know hehe. Unless the is no real drop in performance between the test pipes and the high flow cats...
