What did you do with your Z today V (ON TOPIC DISCUSSION ONLY)

Enjoying the last week of having power and heated seats before throwing in a bucket

ZontheRocks · 02-07-2018, 01:26 PM

Getting ready to gear up on some Bridgestone Potenza RE760s this weekend.

A tire that I do not see a lot of love for (nor hate, so a good thing!) and I love them.

Reasonably priced for the performance (imo, stock size @ $1,037 installed o.t.d. from BJ's) and from the same family that brings us the stocker RE050s and the RE-11s.

Pops threw them on his 350z a few years back and has become our go-to tire.

Try Continental you wouldn’t even remember bridgestone anymore. But thats my opinion.

NCOversteer · 02-07-2018, 04:26 PM

K&N Drop ins, ISR post maf tubes, and a Stillen catback. Drove stock, with drop ins, drop ins/post paf tubes, then drop ins/post maf tubes/Stillen catback and the butt dyno approves. Power aside, the throttle response and sound alone make it 100% worth it and it pulls so much more aggressively up top.
Getting BF Goodrich Pro Sport Comp 2s installed right now as we found severe cracks and dry rot in the stock tires. I had the Comp 2s on one of my Miatas and it seemed like a good balance.

DeliriousClam · 02-07-2018, 05:26 PM

got new gaskets for my cats. By any chance, does anyone know what size press-in studs I'd need if I didn't want to use a nut and bolt combo anymore?

I have 4s too. First time for Michelin so I cant give an accurate review other than I like them.

Eric - I would have stuck with PSS if it were available locally but it's been discontinued. Not a lot out there. TireRack has 2 but with shipping it would be close to a pair if 4Ss. That's why I ended up with it. It has grip and definitely an update to the PSS (I had 2 sets already). Tread pattern seems aggressive, shoulders are more rounded, and more $$$ when compared to PSS. Again, these tires have GRIP! I'd say it is overkill on a DD N/A Z.
