The Nissan dealer in Hawaii attached one of those metal brackets to the underside of my bumper and placed the safety sticker there. I did not ask for this, but it was already done when I picked up...

Just thought that since Nissan is making a hybrid for the first time, and apparently using the same engine, they can easily add the same electric motor to a z and improve hp and especially torque...

Hybrid z

A 67 hp boost with better mileage can apparently be done in a 370 as well? A lithium battery in the hatch may improve handling too. Only a $6000 premium over msrp.

Dynamat is easy to cut with scissors. Don't need a cutting board, and you won't slice your fingers.

OK, I'll try this. Unless it interferes with my text messaging. Actually, every time I look in the side mirror to go around the slow car in front, he slams on his brakes. Well, maybe not everytime.

At least this tells me something about J.D.Power. Their data comes from people who are cheap enough to fill out an 8 page survey for a dollar.
