For all the swfl people , theres a group on facebook that holds and advertises a bunch of car events in the Sarasota area as well as the Fort Myers area. Theres always a bunch of stuff going on around here, think some of you may remember the Z dyno day that was held in sarasota at ART , and the other dyno days that were held there , its the same people that were associated with that and we always have something new going on every week wether its car meets or heading to bradenton track , they have a calendar on the page so you can check that out and maybe i can meet some Z drivers in the area https://www.facebook.com/groups/SRQCDE/

I am definitely down for a meet down here in Fort Myers. There are 3 modded Z's that I am always in touch with, one including Footloose. There's a silver one that plans on undergoing some mods and a yellow one with Stillen sc, bbk and just lots of track upgrades.

By the way, where in NY are you? I lived in Brooklyn and Staten Island pretty much my whole life. I've only been down here in Fort Myers for almost 5 years.

I've taken my Z to Sutherlin once and it was alright. The only thing that annoyed me is that the guy that hoped in my Z to take it to the back stalled my car right in front of me. I was irritated because I have never stalled the car myself and this guy drives cars for a living!

Its much cheaper to do everything yourself, so thats what I do. I've done all the fluids myself regularly. I'm about due for the rear diff and brake flush again though.

Yea I see. You said it was only once so it could be different. I've only been there twice. The service is good from the staff but the wait time for my oil changes went for 3-4 hours... wtf.. I do all of my service now on my own.

Hey y'all! I'm new here but have been a Z owner for a long time. Anything in the North Central part of Florida worth noting? My sled is almost bone stock, but I do have a few things in mind.
A club or some events would be cool to know about...and motivational...jus sayin

Sutherlin service dept replaced the CVT on my previous Altima coupe under warranty no questions asked.

I wanted to buy a car from them a few years back, but the sales team is horrendous!:eek: Though i doubt its the same people, sales is a revolving door..

Bought the Z @ Naples Nissan last summer. I had to make the deal myself, but whatever.

Can't beat the service dept, $40 Mobile One oil changes (standard pricing here), and lifetime engine & tranny warranty. So can't complain.

Oh, and free car washes whenever. I usually go once a week.

I can't seem to find a Dyno in Naples. Anyone doing EcuTek or UpRev in Ft Myers w/ Dyno tuning? Still takes forever to get up there, especially in season, but its closer than driving across the alley to the east coast..:tiphat:

Footloose301 03-13-2014 11:48 AM

Go over to West Palm Beach @ HP Logic. They're great! 3 years on my UpRev tune and running great here!

Where in Clearwater? The DuPont C&C is definitely worth checking out. On average, I'd say there is 250 cars there.

Wow that's early as hell lol. I'll do my best to make it though.

No worries, I am usually slow to respond on the forums also. Sounds good to me. Seems like we're on the same page - 370Z, NY to Fort Myers... :cool:

I grew up north of NYC in Westchester, but I live on the Upper East Side now. I've been all over the metro region out in CT as well. Brooklyn is cool! Small world...

Hey Bossless! Welcome to the area. Like Datsun said, our CFZC group is pretty active and we tend to have a lot of fun. Hope to see you out there soon!

Hey Krazy, congrats on the new Z man! I can do the install for you for a much better price than the ships will charge, or if you just want to do it yourself with my oversight then my garage and tools are open to you. You can text me at 321-506-0573 for more info or to set something up. I live near Cocoa Beach :tup:

Also, as stated before check out our CFZC group on Facebook and maybe come hang out with us, we love meeting new peeps!

I also recommend these guys. Gus is good people and they build some beastly GTR's. Lots of good work comes out of there.
