That's becaue you're in SC. If you were in Cali, you'd get our help. I'd stop for a Z brother who needs help.

You're joking right? I have money but I sure as **** don't keep my tank filled to the max 24/7. I think Mike said once he got fuel starve with 15 out of 16 dots on the gauge! Its not a money issue, its a nissan issue.

But hey, they ****** us all by dropping the 14's $3600 so our cars are worth dog **** now, paint sucks *** and chips if you sneeze on it, so whats one more thing like a sports car that can't take corners or it shuts off

They also raised the price every year since it was introduced. It's now priced the same as it was when I bought my car 4 years ago. It means one thing. There's a new model in the works and they need to move more Z's.

The fuel starve issue does worry me. The problem is, even if Nissan issues a recall or fix, it's not going to be an easy one. It's the design of the tank and every solution thus far isn't 100% and/or extreme in scope.

Its not a money issue and if you had half a brain yould know that it doesnt save any money by waiting till < 1/4 tank to fill up vs filling up at 1/2 a tank. the only thing that drives the cost higher is gas mileage so how am I cheap again?


...anyways I have had 2 370z's and it never happened on the first one I had so maybe its just hit or miss or happenstance to suck up an air bubble. That being said I wouldnt push it

Just when I was starting to have faith again in Nissan. This is a disaster if it Happens on any 2014 models Nissan should be sued..
