Do I have sport pkg?
 
Hey guys I'm new to this forum. I bought a base 370z 7AT few weeks ago and the seller said it came with the sport pkg. After a few weeks of driving I notice my brakes calipers wasn't the same as the one on other base with sport pkg. Mine look like the one from the base with no sport pkg but my Z have the spoiler and the front chin and it also have the 19" RAYS. I'm not sure if it have VLSD cause I don't know how to check if it does. So, I went to the dealer today to ask about this. They said my Z don't have the upgraded sport brakes?! I'm shock..can this possible? How can a dealer said it have sport pkg but without upgraded brakes? I'm soooo confused about this. They gave me only two option, buy the upgradesd brakes or trade that car in for one that have the "sport
Package"...:icon14:

sport package should have the sport caliper brakes.

to check VLSD, put chocks on your front tire, your car in neutral with one rear tire on the ground, turn the other rear one in the air by hand. if it free spins you got an open diff.

Hmmm...

Does it show you what gear you are in displayed on the gauge cluster?

On one the three gauges? Or the little one near the rpm? There is a little one near the rpm.

rpm

Than yes it does.

so sounds like someone swapped out their akebono's before selling...

I thought all 7AT had the little gear showing though?

kenchan 06-12-2012 03:49 PM

oh... yah, im not familiar with AT.. if it was there on a MT, then that means SRM which is on sportpackage.

Masa 06-12-2012 03:50 PM

OP should just do a burn out, if it lays down 2 marks its sport package.

Dealer should be able to look it up by Vin number, no?

I mean, it could be a non-sport that added rims and spoiler after the fact, or it could even be a sports package that did a brake swap to the smaller rotors/calipers/pads. It's rare, but it wouldn't be the first time.

something's definitely wrong.. unless they changed the definition of wat sportpackage includes.... did you know that your car is also missing the steering lock?
