No lie single best thing I've done. Like many with the 6mt low rpm buck or misfire like symptom by first base map has eliminated that and the throttle response is insane. Absolutely love this thing. She pulls to the moon man. I'm only vq35hr can only imagine what the extra 20-30 hp from the VHR feels like!

I have the Z-speed under shroud as well. Had issues with the oil change access and the aftermarket sways hitting. I just put mine back up yesterday as well. Mine scrapes a bit backing out of the garage.

I had the same problem with with the aftermarket under tray contacting the zerk fittings on the Hotchkis sway bar mounts. So I just drilled a 1" hole where each fitting was rubbing to provide clearance for the zerk fittings and now I can also lube the sway bar bushings without removing the under tray.

So... it's the Zerk fittings for the Hotchkis frame brackets that's the problem, not the aftermarket bar itself? Is that what you're saying?

That's good info for anyone planning on an aftermarket tray.

Changed the clutch fluid to DOT4, installed the midnight grill, cleaned the engine bay, conditioned the leather, and replaced the license plated bulbs with LEDs. Not a bad day!

Put some auto window sealer around the weather strip on the fixed window to get rid of that damn wind noise

I've been stalking the thread, green with envy. Had to get the G some gifts for Christmast. I'll share once the goodies arrive and are installed. CF mirror caps will be arriving first. Got a lead on a black sport bumper and sourced some materials for underbody aero panels. It's going to be a fun summer.

That's interesting, the TBW tray I got clears the zerk fittings no problem, and they're both reachable via the oil filter access door with my grease gun.

More good info there on the under tray.

It's not a high priority for me, bit odds are when I get one it will be TBW. I like everything I've ever seen about that tray. I don't have Zerk fittings for my sway bar brackets & frame bushings, but I like collecting miscellaneous info like this. Things get repeated here, because car forum.

I wonder... my engine is lowered in the bay by a half inch because if the aftermarket motor mounts. I wonder if that impacts fitment here?

Shouldn't affect fitment. It mounts in place of the OEM one, so if that clears, TBW will too 😁

I heard negative comments about TBW. This is the first I've heard of Zspeed complaints. Either way I'm getting one.
