http://www.the370z.com/members/edub3...ut-75-done.jpg stock and buffer tube should be here tomorrow. but yea i would get one asap if u ever want one. side note, what if u just put some hfc's or tp's on your nismo to give it some more volume on the cheap? Quote:
well.... i would like to say i have been 100% sold on my z, but car payments do get old. with that being said, i do love this car. its nice turning heads like i'm driving a $200k car when i take it out. there are other options for your car purchase. maybe a newer 350? base 370's are going for like $21k now too |
So as soon as the tow truck rolls on base it has a problem with its air breaks. Now I'm baby sitting the tow truck until another tow truck comes to help him and get my car.

Looking at that list above kinda makes me sad a little. |
Hey it's not cursed if it is still under warranty. Since I have less than a month left its actually great timing, cause if this happened at the end of February they would be charging me around $1000.

Hmmm bad things do seem to happen around him. *looks over at Premal* |
i need to know who put the curse on me. well lets see, last dyno day, digi came up and his car is on its third trans, so i'm guessing he had the curse. a lil while later i had to get a new trans. i passed it on to premals car with the door ding, and last meet he passed it on to lemers... question is.. who's next.
on the steering lock problem, i wouldnt trust any rev of the lock that nissan gives u. nissan went thru 4 revisions of the software and still couldnt get it right. i would just pull the fuse for insurance |
Finally at 7pm the tow truck got its st!t together and got my car.

Dealer called me... It is the steering wheel lock (as if we didn't know). It's gonna take them a week to get the parts in and fix the car. I need to bring them my spare key because they are going to reprogram them. They are going to give me a loaner car while they have mine. No mention of this not being under warranty.

So I was wrong. My original warranty date was 16 jan 2010. So it is done. But I did get the extended warranty we will see how this claim goes.

ya cause honestly could have darn near had a 370 if i hadnt been buynig stuff all the time might go look at a white 350 nismo today, been a this dealership for more than 6mo now. asking 24k another part of me wants and evo. |
Well he said he's gonna first try the extended warranty company (because that's the right route). If they don't pay then I'm gonna tell them I want a refund (probably never see a dime) and start a more diligent effort to find a new car (maybe a 2013 Shelby or Boss)

is that the nismo your dad took a picture with on the scavenger hunt? i wanted an evo before my z. great handling, great power..... then i sat in one. didnt even drive one to determine i could not live with that interior quality. its baaaaaaaaaad plus, i wouldn't trust mitsu to be in business more than 5 more years |

Ya seems like a lot of stuff would break on the evo. I love the z community too, so that would be weird to abandon. Really don't think I would buy a 370 base. Would only cost more in the long run. |
That 350 nismo is amazing looking. I vote that route

Well it seems that most people don't want to give up there exhaust or they don't have the stock exhaust. Soooooo the kit without anything will be $3000. That means you don't have to give me crap except money for the kit. I got stock cats and an exhaust set on standby.
Also you will have to get new wiring for the kit. Just tearing out the interior wiring has been a f'ing beating and not trying to make this tear out take 2 weeks. Now I just need to get it on the lift and the rest should come out in a matter of days. |
so put a new thermostat in and still overheating, and even while overheating my lower radiator hose is still way cold (ie thermo not opening)
put my "broken one" on stove last night and it opened. im at a loss :mad: |
Quote:
Have u cleaned or replaced yr radiator? Could be a clogged heater core? Do u still get hot air blowing from vents? I ask these as I make sure all these are ok before I go to compression check and leak down test. I've delt with a lot of subaru's with bad headgaskets lol. |
ya replaced radiator 6mo ago.
im 95% sure its not flowing, the lower hose is cold, so its getting hotting and not getting past the thermo. but lie u said could be something else before thermo the air bubble would have to be bigger than my fist to keep the coolant from heating it up the thermo. and really the air would get pushed thru the little relief hole when I remove lower hose, small amount of coolant is making it thru the relief hole. just not fully opening.:icon14: even when well above 170 some1 said just remove the thermostat, or drill the relief hole way bigger |

Sorry to hear about your issues Jackson.
Edub...I'm very close to pulling the trigger on this: |
Quote:
On a side note..it doesn't take much or time to get a Z back to stock on this forum. Maybe $570 or so to get the car back to stock. I might be screwed on the cubby hole though.:confused: 2013 Nismo here I come....pun intended.:tup: |
Funny how this firearm fever has spread
I bought a CZ P07 Duty yesterday, and got my ccl today |

When u thinking about picking it up? Quote:
Those cz's are great guns. My old roommate has in. Such an underrated gun. How was getting the ccl? |
Quote:
cc class wasn't bad at all, semi-boring, but wont admit I didn't learn a couple new things. Did it thru state of Florida, cause it 41 state legal/transferable. Still got to get my finger prints done ( :mad: thus far avoided my prints on record haha) |
Well if all the parts come in next week then I'm hoping to go get the car this next weekend. I know I'm gonna take a beating on the car with the hole in the cubby hole:shakes head:.
Update on the sell..... Body Kit--- Sold Hood----Sold Still have the turbo kit....$2750 (price drop from $3000) That's me giving you the kit without you giving me anything ( except money:tup: ). You will need to get the wiring...Sorry but it's a pain to get out and it'll be quicker for me to just to cut it out. Also you will need to buy gauges. |
Edub...it is actually a PS90 as the P90 is the military version. I'll get it from OMB Guns in Olathe, KS. They have a demo you can shoot in their indoor range. It would be the long barrel version also. I have a special discount which lets me get it for just over $800 but there is a waiting list and who knows what will happen nationally while on the list.....
Tower...wish I had the money to take some of those parts off your hand but my house purchase took care of all the things I was going to do to the Z. My next purchase would actually be a DD, so the Z can play in the garage during the winter and bad weather. The DD will be a full size pickup as I want the ability to haul stuff and get around in the snow if it ever happens. |
It's cool. The only thing I'm waiting for is answer on the cats. Everything else should be in this week. Then it's tear down 100% time and new car hear I come.
