Yeah I bet those are just insane... for the z, these should be plenty... Did order some SI TMIII's and M25's (Hertz HSK 165's are being punted)

What amp are you running the W7 on?

I'm debating the RF P1000x1bd $400 vs the RF T1000 $600... running a 2 ohm setup

I had to remove the two 8" subs I had in there, was way overkill.

Immediately treated 'er to a small upgrade going from JL Audio 10w0's to 10w3's (I think we're now on V3)...



Left = W3 / Right = W0 (I'm sure everyone on here know's this most likely):







Num Num:







Will need to upgrade from this puny RF p300x1...
Take care? What did you do or not do?

I am on the 7AT thread over in the engine n drivetrain section...

Long story short: buy a transmission cooler and do frequent transmission fluid changes

Neglect? Mines still in storage. Probably sitting on flats.

I have it on an original JL Audio 500/1 bridged.
Perfect amp for it, not too much, but more than enough for the Z!

Got my tax return today so I ordered my front tires: Firestone Fire Hawk Indy (stock size). I have the new rears already. Going to try and get them mounted soon and see how they handle.

Did what I should have done last year.

Was at Z1motorsports at opening. Got the 34 row cooler installed with the 160F plate. I didn't get to do too much on the way back, but since I had the old Note 4 up with Torque, I got a pretty good look at the new characteristics:

On the way down it was about 50F outside and after the oil matched up the coolant at 183F it drifted up to around 195F in the 50 mins or so it took me to get there.

On the way back it was 67F and I was less sedate. When the plate opened it actually dragged coolant under thermostat trigger and ran at 179F for a bit. On surface streets once I got off the highway I couldn't get it to break 200F but there was enough traffic I couldn't really get a good test in.

I'm going to have to plan a bit, make sure I get things nice and warm and then take some well known roads not dropping revs under 5k to get a good feel (finally!!) for how the car behaves at peak power.

The surge from 5k to red is loads of fun, I look forward to a lot more of that.

Thanks to the good folks of Z1motorsports.

Have fun and be safe y'all.

Debating whether or not it's worth it to pay to get my wheels repaired or just get new ones...I love the stock rays, but getting all 4 wheels done would cost at least $600...
