So I've been using the Valvoline MST 5W-40 Dexos 2 oil for the past couple years instead of the M1 0W-40 and have been pleased with it.
My situation is probably different from most; my ZL1 is not...

ZL1

If you're driving around pothole ridden New Orleans/South LA roads and doing some long road trips consistently I'd stick with the regular ZL1. The magnetic dampers do a good job at soaking up rougher...

Replacing Adhesive

It was probably overkill but I contacted 3M since they make so many different VHB tapes. They recommended the 5952 based on the application. https://3m.citrination.com/pif/000083?locale=en-US

Dipstick

I guess I'm one of the few that likes this style. I've always found it easy to tell the level on. I also always check about five minutes after bringing the oil up to operating temp, and definitely...

Coming off of GY SC3's (non-R) on track and auto-X, I was very impressed with the PS4S street manners, especially noise level, comfort, and grip available without a lot of heat in them. I figured I...

Hit both surfaces lightly with 4-600 grit sandpaper and then coat both hub and wheel face with a very light coat of anti-seize, then fully torque wheels - should fix it.

Apex Wheels

If you're looking for ZLE spec 19" wheels or even other setups its hard to beat Apex for an extra set of wheels. I run them in ZLE spec with Mich PS4S; great for street use.

TPMS Sensors

Does anyone know if the batteries in the ZL1 TPMS sensors are replaceable or if I need to buy a whole new sensor? Kicking myself as one isn't registering, should have checked them all before mounting.

I've noticed this as well for a long time, checked all the trim around the area and couldn't find any source of noise. Sounds to me almost like the glass itself vibrating.
