Nissan 370Z Forum  

Just bought a used Z

Call the shop and talk to them on the phone. Does uprev have different maps that you can toggle through? Maybe youre on the e85 map or something like that.

Even if they can get it working right for you, id do a compression and leakdown test and post it for sale on here with those results (assuming they show a healthy engine). You should be able to get your money back.

The issue is everytime something goes wrong (just a matter of time with a hightly modified car) youll have to pay a shop to troubleshoot it, that's why its encouraged to build yourself and not buy, that way you know everything that goes on the car and what each part does and can troubleshoot it yourself.

Heres another link with your car also:

Google high crime areas nearby, leave your car there and pray someone steals it and totals it. Or, find a flood zone and park it smack dab in the middle. Geez that is a seriously modded Nismo.

LOL. Yes it is and I'll LOVE it as soon as I can figure out why it chooses when it wants to start and when it doesn't !!

Glad you're in love with your car! This can be a very fun/challenging/exciting experience for you to tear it apart and learn about it, if your that sort of person. The best first step you can do after talking to the building shop would be to get it to someone who knows uprev, have them check out the tune/codes/sensors to see what's going on.
