It's all fixed! That's right. Everything on my car is finally working flawlessly. In my previous post I explained to everyone how I finally got the car running right. Well after that I installed a CF pst driveshaft and had a horrible wobble b/c of it. Even after installing a new tranny mount and getting the driveshaft rebalanced, it still wobbled :( Well, I mailed it back to them and got one of those new platinum series driveshafts from Z1 a while back and finally got around to installing it. Fixed the wobble issue perfectly. It is absolutley smooth as butter, and it weighs only slightly less than my carbon one did and is also half the price :) Props to them big time for that awesome product. Next thing that I fixed was my emissions issue. I loved having test pipes on my car for about 1 month lol. I know many out there like them (for obvious reasons), but I just like QUIET FAST cars that are actually street legal haha. Anyways, Greg at SpecialtyZ hooked me up with a pair of stainless steel test pipes with flex joints and highflow cats at a great price and also REALLY helped me out with how I had to pay him b/c of the whole identity theft thing that happened to me recently. (it sucks). Anyways, I just installed these and started up the car, and it is quiet even with no mufflers on :) I can't wait to here what it sounds like tonight when i install my x-pipe with resonators and the B&B mufflers. Should be very quiet and have a low tone. Also, the car actually smells "good" now. Yeah! I know many out there don't like highflow cats and would rather have strait through test pipes and I can understand why. But, I figure that in the end, I will definatley make up for that slight power loss with my setup, and also, I like my car working and functioning perfectly...as well as loooking like functions properly. For example, no smoke pouring out of the exhaust b/c there are no cats. Anyways, I am very happy with those test pipes from specialtyz and Greg is great to do business with. Also props once again to Z1 for their great platinum driveshaft that they now offer at only $325. Also props to Coz at getting me at least a hundred parts in the past years at all great deals with great service. Anyways, as for my car goes...I am going to be dropping it back to the ground when I get back at home tonight around midnight, and it is going back to the body shop to finish the widebody right after an alignment in two weeks exactly. Ok I'm done typing, thanks for reading, and I couldn't be happier with my progress. Good luck to everyone else out their dealing with issues in their 300ZXs.
Thanks,
Mike
