Cossie, You seem so defensive and tell people they are whining.. This is a problem that never should have happened..

And I am sorry if your nose is bent because the Nissan Sucks.

I am not angry...I have plenty of money to buy whatever I want, whenever I want...So Money is never the problem..My mistake for not researching the problems...Yes, MY mistake...So yes, you are right...My Problem...

It is NISSAN that doesn't want to listen... We listened and the fix is LAME.....You may want to roll over for Nissan...Go for it.

You and I both know Nissan should step up....You know it...But since you own one, you defend it....OK...
Hmm..i hate Nissen as much as you do, but for different reasons. why would I want to suck them off when my gas tank actually broke at 12k miles and I still have to deal with the same exact problem on a new tank. I trash them whenever I can get, but whining about fuel starvation when everyone already knows is a joke. What are you going to say next, stock pads and fluid arent track ready?

completely agree... the fuel starvation is a huge disappointment especially because no one knows how to get around it really... A lot of "sports cars" stock brakes wont hold up on a track just like ours...

unless you are buying a prepped car or very slow, you are an idiot for running stock brake pads/fluid on a track, even if they can be used, it just makes sense to swap them.

Adding an extra pump to the fuel tank is another animal entirely.

Or if you are just taking your wife's Z4 out for a session to see how it handles on the track. But then again, her brakes held up fine for me.

Again, not serious tracking if you're taking it out for a couple laps.
