I originally responded to this post a long time ago but I saw two emails on the subject this week. They make me smile because I still use the car as my daily driver and have no plan to replace it. ...

I have been browsing Utube videos about the 370Z. Most are negative; complaining about clutch failures, steering lock, axle bearings and bushings, oil consumption, paint, and on and on. If you are...

Brake pad life
Here is an easy question; What is the life expectancy of the the original brake pads. They look OK but I would rather replace them early than have to replace the rotors.

Thanks for the speedy response - you are right on. That fuse that caused the problem was under that insane long-term storage switch. I pried it out and didn't put it back. Everything works again....

The OEM Yokahamas on the rear of my wife's 370Z look like they will make it to about 20K miles before reaching the wear bars. The fronts could easily last another 5K miles.

Back-up light
thanks for your interest, but I want to illuminate down low so that we can benefit from the camera. The standard back-up lights are bright but they can't reach down low close to the car.
