Yeah another 370Z with a dodggey fuel gauge issue. I was the first to pick up the Z when it was launched April last year. And it seems like one issue after another.

one: dodgy tiniting. Had to be redone twice

Two: Front bonnet didn't align. Nissan dealership tried to fix. Ended scratching the from 2 pillars. Cars had to spend a couple of days being resprayed at a panel shop.

Three: Boot hatch was getting stuck. Had to get that fixed as well.

Four: Battery manged to **** itself after only 2 months. Lucky it was replaced for free, due to Randwick dealership helping out.

Five: The floor mats fell apart after only 5 months of ownership. Got some ordered from the US. Half the price with twice as good quality.

Six: despite of all the issues I still love the car.


Seven: HOT.370 will be for sale soon as I'm going to upgrade to an R35 GTR.

PS. Glad to be part of the forum.

how often do you change your cars? I'll line up for the GTR :tup:

In other news my final light is now back on... The only thing i can attribute this to is as follows:

i go on business trips for 2 weeks with the tank not full, i come back and it's out... 3 or so refils later the final light comes on... each time after that the light is on... I then go on another business trip and the damn f'er is out... conclusion... it rusts or something when you leave it out of the fuel too long... but i don't know why the 2nd and 3rd top dots don't also die... so yeah not a full proof conclusion but that's what i've observed.

Yeah, the 2010 GTR is getting rave reviews. I do like the 370z an awful lot despite a few minor issues that really aren't worth a lot of angst over in the big picture - its a toss up for me whether to beef up the 370z with $30k+ of go fast goodies or stump up for Godzilla.
Hey life is tough...hehe

Yeah I agree totaly the 370z is a stunning looking car.

The issues truly are minor. I have installed a cold air intake and the Hi Tech CBE system. The performance gains where an extra 23.7 horsepower at the wheels.

The car for a naturaly aspirated 6, delivers the performance of an HSV.

Agree...and tested against my mates 2010 HSV GTS. I was only slighly behind but not much at all. With mods and decent traction I reckon the Z would take it. :P

I've taken two lol

On sunday we can take another Futhin' few..

(But no backflips, ramps, wheelies etc or 'that guy' might start condemning us again..)

I've taken a lot of ss but never hsv, but maybe is my auto tranny, the gear changes are always wrong now, night and day difference compare to my test drive.

Is your TT370 an auto?

Long story short, yes that's y it took so long to get the ecu going, if not would of just motec it, and would of been the 1st tt 370z in the world, I order my tt kit with sam when they havnt even completed the kit

Now the 2nd tt 7a and 1st rhd tt, if they can finish next week lol

hmmm,

So a 370z with Berk HFC's - FI Catback - Injen intake. Can take out a VE HSV?

Ps off topic, Just got my 19inch 370z wheels. Post photos soon.

On paper yeah real life in a straight line at the lights, I don't think so , don't think there's enough tq

dunno man i ran 2 gts 317kw and I was about 10-15 cm ahead (yes not much but it was there lol) granted this was only to the speed limit of 80km/h im sure that past 100km/h they would pull ahead slightly
