When I fired up the Z this morning I was greeted with lifter noise. :jawdrop: It went away quickly, but it wasn't what I expected with under 400 miles on the car. Anyone else had the same experience?

Hey Chuck,
Welcome to the forum!!
How do you think these motors make the power they do?? Opened clearances!
The weight difference is also a big product of sound deadening materal being removed.
You didn't buy a Lexus but a Corvette!
With hydraulic rollers, I doubt you heard lifter noise!!
Enjoy your car! It's a race car in civilian clothes!!
lifter clatter, tranny clunking, clutch rattling - the sounds of speed !
