Nissan 370Z Forum - What did you do with your Z today III

Hmm. Hadn't considered that. I have an extended warranty, maybe I'll take it in tomorrow. Wonder if the dealer will give me sh!t with the tiny mods I've made.

Don't think they will give you a hard time, it's a good idea to have them take a look especially you have the extended warranty :)

Drove it to dinner and it definitely felt more responsive. No lag between pressing the accelerator and getting it to pick up.

When I was completely stopped, my car idled so low that it sounded like it shut off for a few seconds. I don't know if its just me worrying but the revs seemed all over the place while slowing down and breaking. I haven't fixed the passenger side air box yet.

Maybe one of the Austin guys can drive it and let me know if I'm just worrying too much.

I think the ecu has to get used to the air flow since the new hoses are smoother. My :twocents:

"Getting used to air flow" should only take a couple of minutes. :)

Shouldn't be the hoses, cos she just installed the hoses today, but the 'jerking' has been for a few weeks.

Thats just take it easy driving. With the oil that hot there is no margin to really get on it and let the supercharger spool up. Anyway, nice talking to you all.

Hey, that car is noting like mine! I don't have a supercharger or Nismo bumper. :bowrofl: kidding.

Sounds like a sweet setup. I would like to see more, :pics:

Morning guys:hello:

Tracie, my revs will stick while decelerating occasionally. I mostly notice it when I come to a complete stop, sometimes it'll hang high at maybe 1500 rpm. Im not sure why it does it either, but then again, I dont give a fvck:icon17:
