1/3/2010!!

Last few days I started modding the Z, even though they were very small mods. My goal is to have the car Track-Ready by Spring time. Here are some pics of the progress:

1. TWM Type R 440g shift knob with the engraving. At 130 bux incl shipping it was pricey but it makes shifting a complete blast and takes away some of the shifter vibrations as well. Installing this thing was a major pita but well worth it.








As you can see it shortens the overall length of the shifter by about an inch which helps with the improved overall feel.

2. Dynamat!!
The road noise on the Z is quiet compared to my S but when I drive this thing to work sometimes and have to carry clients who drive 100k+ luxo cruisers, I need to make sure they're not raising their voice just to talk to me. Best 17 bux i've ever spent. I made the mistake of buying only 1 pack which was not enough but you get the idea of what i'm trying to do. I will order another pack and finish the trunk very soon. This drastically reduced the road noise and I am certain that doing the entire trunk will improve it even more. Very satisfied.








3. Tint.
Cali is anal with having front windows tinted, and cops seem to spot my car from a mile away so i decided to go with a lighter shade in the front. Surprisingly the two different shades blend in well and doesn't create as big of a contrast that i thought it would. 100 bux with lifetime warranty for all 5 windows and they did an EXCELLENT job!!!















Sorry the car is super dirty.

Next mods are: Modshack's oil cooler, FI exhaust, Redline engine oil, Sway bar, new diff & tranny fluid (havent decided on which ones yet). I'll try a few track events with those mods and see where i need to go from there. Thanks for looking!!
