Ordered GTR Start button and did mine just now! Took 2 minutes, literally.

:)

I dropped off my Z to get a clear bra for the front end and also to get limo tint on all the windows and a sun strip :)

Drove it and priced out a stock to nismo exhaust conversion through a local dealer

You wouldn't happen to drive a gunmetal color Z would you?

Sweet. I've been looking at doing that as a quick and not expensive mod. How does the stock start button come out? Is it really that easy?

In other news I covered up Z again for the forcasted snow tonight. Then tomorrow it should be fine again...man am I ever tired of this March weather.

But I have been able to get thru winter just with a good cover and driving it in between all the storms, wash all the time to get salt off, and I did treat my underbody with 3M rust proof/sound deadener spray...

6 months of ownership, 11500k miles, oil change coming up (every 3k), bought with 6 miles = :driving:

Follow this instruction here!

GTR START BUTTON ANOTHER ALTERNATIVE WAY

Thanks brother! That looks quite easy indeed lol. Ordering the GTR button right now

Tested my new Ventus V12 EVO2 on freeway where it was pretty empty.

I found out that it slips often after 6,000 RPM.

Yep, thats to be expected with that tread pattern and tire quality. I can buy a set for under 400 bucks.. My stock Bridgestones slip often after 6000 rpm lol..

I bet those hankook will slip much, much more.

For some reason my shop was having trouble getting RBF 600? Wtf?

anyways found and sourced it... picking up a bottle for the csc/msc swap. I did notice the brake fluid was a bit lower. I'll ask them to top it up with the remainder.

tune deposit has also been confirmed! the tuner mentioned 2.5 hours give or take on average and explained it's a bit longer than uprev due to more customizability. weee!

what are the temps? as it warms up they should get stickier...

I don't know. But for me it seemed to happen regardless of its temperature.

Check out the FI start button.... :stirthepot:

Before you top off, replace the pads. If you top off and then replace pads, the excess has to go somewhere. Better to have new pads, then replace the brake fluid by flushing out through the bleed ports. :twocents:

Lol I've seen that one before. Its nice, but I think it fits a Nismo interior better and I prefer the GTR button.

Plus i'll save the extra 100 bucks in cost

I've got the base interior and it looks pretty cool to me. I had a GTR button I just gave away on the freebies thread a couple of months ago, to someone I've not seen hide nor hair of since... :confused:

Should've given it away to me. I'd give away something too like a Stillen oil cap or similar. Thats how I do, for your future reference lol...

So you think the FI button looks way better? What about some of the aftermarket ones that are just red/blue led? Opinions?

weird... even on stocks I never had spin in warm temps.

rotor/pads were replaced last year. it's a smidgen below the max kinda like where it was pre-replacement. probably had some air in the lines :shakes head:

I haven't seen any of the aftermarket ones, so I wouldn't have an opinion. I got the FI one primarily because the car is going to them early next year for TT , clutch and exhaust. :excited:

That makes sense, might as well get all FI stuff and complete the package.

Congrats! I'm excited for you!! Wish I had more money for my N/A build right now... oh well the future is bright, long live the Z!

Just replaced my stock with Nismo CBE today. Sound isn't much difference but I do like the looks much better with bigger tips:

^^ Looks much like the Stillen exhaust. Any reason you chose Nismo vs all other options?

i washed/ clay bar'd / waxed my newly bought 12 model 370 yesterday. Paint feels like silk now. Here is a pic of it.

Nice! Welcome to the silver club :tup:

BTW you should move the broom and trimmer out of the way next time lol

Nice, welcome!

thanks guys, much appreciated. whom ever owned the car before me obviously new about z1... looking under neith car, its got ARK X-Pipe dual setup, z1 CSC external slave setup, so im guessing upgrading clutch setup, , i had z1 look over car, they found no issues. Z1 installed their test pipes, cai setup on car, and other bolt ons... Really enjoying this car, so much fun to drive.

That's a good lol

No mine is black... for now

no reason. just purely like the look, didn't want a loud exhaust, and 'supposedly' some gains. Im planning to get it tuned in the future with more bolt-ons. Oh, and I get to say "I have a nismo exhaust" :rofl2:

and it was really cheap!.....

Very nice! Welcomeeee

That's the first thing I did when I got my z!

did u have to add washers on the passenger rear bracket holding up muffler

Oh alright, just asking cause i see a newer gunmetal 370Z every so often on my side of town lol

Absolutely nothing. Thats what I did with my Z today. Nothing.

Oh wait. I did check to make sure the dogs didn't whiz on it.

Smh.

Bought soo much stuff for her today...

Possible my last oil change for the Z, car may be sold next weekend. we'll see.

Just curious, but for the amount of miles on your Z have you had to replace the timing chain at any point?

What happened? Upgrading?

Out from under the cover....
 

Got home tonight after work, popped in the battery and put on new plates.
All ready to go after four months under a cover. It has 9444 kms on the clock and still has a new car smell. I have an order from the Rag Company and a bottle of Kenotek detailer to go pick up tomorrow.

104

Nope nothing in the engine has been touched, chain is still the original one.

Bought a new truck back in Sept to replace the Z with. Just wanted to get over 250,000 miles first, and i'm almost there, 248,xxx. I have someone coming to look at the car next weekend.
