several people have had there steering wheel lock mechanism fail on them at which point the car wont let you start it. even if its stuck in the unlock position because the system is tied to your intelligent key system..

In for warranty. They pay the towing too.

I found and opened up the IPDM and checked all the fuses, they were fine. Not sure so I'll leave it up to the dealer to fix. What a PITA.

What's with the Nismo badge on the clearly non-Nismo Z?

NOOOOOOO say it aint so. Come on man we cant do that to our cars, it looks bad for the rest of us. We're the NON RICY Z owners here. But did it say Nismo or Nostart?

Also was that the pick up point of the drop off point? Dont look like a Nissan dealership to me.

It does have nismo wheels.

The last 3 pics were the drop off point, and it is a Nissan dealership just north of Tacoma, WA. It's at the back side. I guess that's why they call it Tacompton son. LOL

Hahaha how funny. I actually had these wheels custom made to say "NOSTART" how did you know?

So if I put a turbo badge on my car do I get turbo power too?
