I wouldn't expect any problems. But some people are more cautious than others.

I like the subtlety of slotted rotors. Excessively drilled or drilled and slotted rotors typically look too busy for my tastes. But now that you mention weight loss, I am thinking I should have just gotten drilled and slotted

worst tires you could have gotten for a track car. Your compound rating is extremely hard so grip will be gone. Good luck...

Yeah I heard those tires are horrible

i ran GS-D3's like 8yrs ago on a hatch. those were pretty good, but i wouldnt run them on a Z.

Got the rear lower valance section wrapped in matte black today by Zilla Wraps in Fort Worth, Texas. Love it! Thanks again, Scott!

Xavier6401 · 03-19-2014, 07:15 PM

Upgraded to some 275 potenzas!!

Zerocool · 03-19-2014, 07:49 PM

New the forum! as far as what I've done to it today?

took off the dealer decal from the rear and yesterday I picked her up. After the dealership tried to play games with the deal we initially had, we finally came to an agreement. I'm a huge Z fanatic and after I drove my GF's white pearl 370, I fell in love. If she didn't let me drive it, I probably would have gotten an 08 350z to save on money but this is well worth it. I've driven her Z down to florida and the longest i've driven the car before switching was about 16 hours straight. I found the car very comfortable and didn't mind the long trip.

anyway here's my new baby. 09 red.

Didn't want to make a thread but.... Anyone know how to remove slight door creaking/popping noise when opening and closing. Any lubricant that would help the hinges or the middle bar(pretty sure its coming from there)

Use your finger to apply it on the hinges and work it in well. Use a towel to remove excess.
