I think nissan did that did that on purpose so that you dont spin out or cause your traction to kick in all the time.

oil cooler and VDC off should fix the gas pedal delay issue.

Cool

The biggest problem with the Z is hot chix wanna ride in your car in groups of 3, but there is only have one seat. Second problem is, being married and hot chix still wanna ride in the Z. Another problem is, coming out of stores and restaurants, you might find droolers and gawkers around your ride???
Other issues or symptoms of Z ownership may be may be muscle car drivers envying your cars uniqueness, which may cause them to spew rants of v8 superiority. Hateration from germaphilles. and finally your biggest problem will be keeping your azz out the drivers seat. The Z is way too addicting. That cockpit design just makes you feel like you're flying a fighter jet. After a little bit you begin to believe it is and you will want to make the car fly

Yes, the biggest problem is the "girlfriend jealousy factor" that my gf exhibits when we pull up somewhere and the other girls immediately start flirting with me in the car.

Biggest problem seems to be the Z's attraction to bricks and the wheel's love to roll off to craig's list.

I wanted a compiled list (in one place listing all the most common one) for those of us who dont know and also for those who might want to track their car. If you track your 370z some or most of these will happen . Had I know I might not have bought one !
The number one problem..... people complaining about what's wrong with this car!
