From G to Z

Hey all, just bought my '11 GM 6MT Z with sports package last week. My '05 LR 5AT G35 coupe was totaled a few weeks ago, sadly, but I'm super happy with my Z!

I'll be uploading them to my profile periodically! I take lots of pictures and I guess they're too large for threads. Haven't started modding yet (bone stock), but the first thing I'm thinking is short tails. Open to suggestions on first mods

I had both for a while, then just a Z for a while. There are Pros and Cons with both cars. The Z is more fun to drive though!

I just miss how awesome my G sounded and also very disappointed in how lame the Z sounds stock. I wish I had a sound clip of the G, I was going to record one at Import Alliance Atlanta but on my way there she was wrecked and I never got a clip

It sounded like no other G or Z

Understood, the first thing I did with the Z is put an cat back exhaust on it. I had an IPL and I loved the sound of it. The Z was way to raspy for me. I think I had the exhaust on before I hit 500 miles on the Z.

Nice! On the G I had a Jegs cutout welded on after the stock cat and at low rpms it sounded like a growling v8 and at high rpms it sounded like a screaming Ferrari. It didn't really help with performance but it sounded like a dream. I didn't track the car so I thought it would be better for me to just find a good exhaust note. I love the IPL note but I just never thought IPL was worth the money, I would have rather gone with a Nismo Z.
