Yep. It's about Nissan not standing by their product, ever, or even reaching out to those that did pay out of pocket for repairs that were later coverd under recall. As I said, I don't mind having a...

Post After 5 years of Owning a 370Z, I'm Swearing Off Nissan

This probably won't be a popular post, but I thought I'd share my experiences with owning a 370Z from the the day it went on sale and the reason I will never buy another Nissan product again. I hope...

You have to not think in terms of "stages" as there is no hard and fast conventions for what it corresponds with. That term has stuck and is pretty much the least informative marketing speak. It's...

I'm very curious to see what the intercooler and pipe routing setup looks like, whether the crash bar is retained, and of course the cost.

Amazing!

Those exhaust manifolds are amazing.

I've overlaid and attached the three compressor maps for the turbos mentioned by Tony for comparison.

I pulled my fuse at the dealership before they even made the repair, so there's no chance of failure again.

It didn't work, but here's an update. My steering wheel was not actually locked, but the car seems to have been in the locked mode. This means that if it fails, regardless of whether it is physically...

Just happened to my 2009 370Z Sport Touring at 55K miles. Manufactured 11/2008. Not sure of the version of the box in my car. I'll post it later if I can remember.

Yeah, I should have phrased my reply better to allow for variation in people's taste. I still feel the same as I said about the Varis hood, but to each their own.

Just throwing this out there, if my phone is too close to my fob, it will not work.
