Problems with the Z that should be addressed in 2018 onwards

1) there's no OIL cooler. OIL heats up very fast and high. I have to spend $300-600 on OIL cooler (Parts only)

2) The gas tank has a real stupid issue where will get oil starvation when you turn a bit hard to the right, making honda civics seem like Lamborghini next to my stalling Z. (I'm exaggerating for comedic effect here, don't bring out the butthurt)
2017's still have this issue.
You need to spend between $300-1000 to fix this issue. (Parts only)
Also it's not reading the gas tank very well.

3) sound system BLOWS. This varies depending on the user, but to have something decent people will be spending at least $300-500.


The reason why I bring this up is mostly so SOMEONE does something for future models. It's mind blowing that a company as legendary as Nissan doesn't address issues very well.

If you know any other issues worth mentioning, try to keep the numbering in order.

Cheers

2 - oil starve only happens if you're running low on gas and make really fast turns. Fill up on gas regularly and slow down. I've had the car down to 1 dot and warning light come on with no issues on making right turns.

2 - it's a sports car, not a luxury car with 20 speakers.

I've edited the little details.

1) 2012 and up still run hot with stock oil coolers from what I hear

2) even when gas is a bit more than 3/4ths full

3) (Not asking a luxury system, but something that doesn't sound completely distorted when you put it on 22 volume level)
