None of this means anything to me but it needs better pads and there are some oil cooling issues when being push hard (mostly on the track). Easily altered in my eyes. Though I know Nissan should address and they will but that's no reason I still wouldnt buy the car ten more times. Most Z owners don't push there cars like a good bit of us here. Most probably don't even know what is considered high oil temps. So even with the majority of Z's sold the car is perfect for the average driver.

Also( just thinking out loud) I wonder if Nissan made a bigger block itself with bigger oil passages but with the same displacement would that help. Whatever happens it's probably going to be easy for the pros to figure out. Nissan made a lot of improvements over the 350 and keep it the same price so next time around they'll improve more. Maybe a little more money but will be well worth it.
