SwedeZ liked post by Zyonara91 On thread : Using 5W-40 on Z's with no oil cooler

Exactly. I run a 19 Row out here in Toronto, it handles traffic, spirited driving coupled with hot weather just fine. I do not track hence the choice.

We both know that 0w-20 is emission oil. It does nothing for longevity of the engine.

SwedeZ liked post by TopgunZ On thread : ***Topgunz ROTREX C38R Supercharger Kit***

We were very much so aware of the potential of this. We also very much so wanted to see just how much boost it took. We obviously went into this knowing we were on a fuse. I already had parts coming...

SwedeZ liked post by crazy4oldcars On thread : Codes and Problems, engine ticking noise

My '16 NISMO has had a fairly loud idle tick from the valve train since I bought it with 180 miles on it. I first noticed it when I was sitting in a drive-thru, waiting for my food. I could hear it...

SwedeZ liked post by phunk On thread : Valve Ticking noises on 09 370z

Its really hard to compare the sound over the computer speakers. My car has a loud exhaust on it and I cannot really hear the valve noise from outside the car because the transmission (very light...

SwedeZ liked post by Zyonara91 On thread : Clutch noise when in neutral

The Z makes noises. The manual trans with the flywheel and clutch are very, how do I saw, organic and raw. Unless it's grinding gears, keep enjoying it.

I think you and I have different definitions on what a "slight" ticking/tapping noise might be.

SwedeZ liked post by JARblue On thread : Loud ticking noises from engine bay, is this normal? or too loud? [VID]

Yup, that's perfectly normal. The VVEL really likes to chatter. I had an NTB tech tell me I had "spark knock" one time :rolleyes:

mine is exactly the same on a 14 plate , I think its the valve train or injectors , seems louder at the back of the engine. Cannot pin point where its coming from but from what I have read is normal
