I said my new friends can fix that...A Cat back exhaust and a K and N.. I threw in the K and N for me...

She said really ?? I said oh ya....More growl and power...I should shut up about the power thing and focus on the " growl "..

She misses it, and that makes me happy....After we wear out the new tires, i may be adding the " growl" back...

love my Girl

An cat-back will give her the growl, about the K&N, a drop-in will do the job no problem.

Yes, I agree, 350 have a better exhaust note.

my stock G's intake/exhaust has a MUCH nicer tone so i too was pretty bummed when i got in the Z for the first time at the dealer. sounded great on initial cold start but then it was too quiet...like driving a G37 sedan or something. btw, i might be the only one on the boards with the fujimura muffler. very nice sound btw.

Doing pretty good now that I'm home.

Getting ready to eat some Chinese and watch an hour or so of tv.

What knob you looking to get? I'm really digging the PWJDM one that I picked up! have fun wrenching the old one off.

Hey Ken! Were you able to kill that headache?

Edit:NVM, just saw you rid yourself of the headache and are heading into brain freeze!

hey mr. happy- hahaha, yah, i didnt know steaks cure headaches. i like my pepper steak med-rare.

im going to sport the pwjdm knob a few more times and decide if i want to get the biggy type-r knob (twm) or not. i should've gotten the titanium collar for my pwjdm... cause now i want to get it powder coated matte black.

Which PWJDM knob do you have? I used to want the cylindrical looking model, but now I saw the round one and it looks pretty awesome

And you aren't happy with it? Do you find it shifts better than stock?

it does shift better than stock and weighted. im more of a biggy knob guy so this is the only reason and i want a dark colored knob now. the knob was smaller than i thought vs the pict.

mine had lots of burrs when i bought it enough to cut some suede off my gloves so had to file off some of the decorative stripe in the middle.

Would you say that it's smaller than the stock knob?

Oh it's definitely smaller. PWJDM posted a pic for scale some time back. Do a search on the thread with the keyword "scale". Id do it now but a bit busy. Ken and I purchased the same one. I like it, but have to agree that I would not say no to the Big Type R knob as well!
