Yep, Seb always gives me a separate map for the summer and adds some timming to be safe. He also tells me not run it too hard when it's over 100*. On the plus side, the FI 34 row oil cooler is the bomb even at over 120* last year my oil temps never went over 240 in stop and go traffic and max AC.

Hey so I kinda had this problem where my steering wheel would wobble around 75 mph and my steering wheel would shake a little as I stop, so I went to this mechanic and I had to get my all my rotors replaced. Just something you should check before you get an alignment. As for an alignment place, ADS automotive in chandler I heard is pretty good.

Who would have thought?! You responded to my thread only to meet hours later at a Fantasy Football Draft! HA! Looking forward to getting the Z back and going places man!

:tup: Welcome!


Looks like it's starting to finally begin the cooldown... not too much longer and I may head begin heading out to the Pavs once or twice a month.




Also guys, Cars & Coffee is this Saturday at Double Tree Ranch & Scottsdale Rd. 6AM to about 10ish. So if you want to see some exotics and potentially some hyper-cars (we've had the holy trinity out there before), come on out.

I'm going to try to make it. I bailed on the last two, not going to do it again. I may even hose off my car (so dirty). :icon17:

Gianni 09-03-2015 07:26 PM

I got caught in the rain Monday night and i had to pull over because I was skidding and it felt so wrong to keep driving. Huge puddles formed and was forced to go through. My poor z :(

louiey370z 09-15-2015 09:57 PM

Anyone got a splash shield I can buy?

GeauxTigers1 10-03-2015 04:22 PM

Bringing this one back from the dead! Z is back in the valley baby!! Who's down for our cruise??? Anyone know of any events coming up? I want a reason to take her out!

INeedaDoctor 10-03-2015 08:09 PM

I'd be too down to cruise, but my clutch pedal is kinda stuck to the ground soooo I can't :'(

Popwarfirm2 10-04-2015 02:38 AM

How about that weather? Hey, fairly new to the website...haven't posted much up until now.

There were a ton of events yesterday:

Cars & Coffee
No Fly Zone (in Gila Bend)
And apparently the Cruise on Central.


I only went to C&C, as I didn't hear about the other two until an hour or so into C&C yesterday. :icon17:

:icon17: I'm not sure. I guess you have to follow every car scene thing on FB and such.

Or just constantly search? /shrug

Facebook is definitely a big way to find out about alot of these events. Social Media is the modern day version of passing out flyers everywhere.

We'll see.

I can't commit to anything right now, as my mind is in a state of disarray, but it sounds like a good time.

Absolutely! On a few groups there. Mainly the 370z group, any other recommendations on groups to add that will actually have these flyers? Seems like all the ones I see are nationwide so they don't focus on little ole az

Z Spec 10-16-2015 03:49 AM

Check out Desert Street Scene. They post a lot of local meets, car shows, and events.

Gianni 10-16-2015 06:05 PM

I'm in! But we need to let others know because I try to get on the forum every once in a while and I think Facebook or Instagram would be better to gather them up. I don't have a Facebook btw.

vividracing 10-16-2015 06:13 PM

Just FYI for you AZ locals!

Looks like I won't be able to make it that day because of work. :/ I can always go to pavillions. What about a Saturday afternoon cruise to pavs? I met another z owner there last Saturday that wants to start a z club. :)

vividracing 10-22-2015 05:06 PM

There have been quite a few Z clubs here in the valley to date.

Be aware that red and blue lights in the front are illegal and sooner or later will be stopped and probably given a ticket. Blue isn't allowed anywhere (front, rear or side) :tiphat:

Hoping to get out to Pavs soon. It's been a long time since showing off the Zed... :happydance::ughdance:

Anyone want to join and/or meet on the West Valley to cruise on over? Let me know!!

Haboob 11-02-2015 04:21 PM

Is your car running well now? What was the issue?

What time were you wanting to meet up? I usually leave my house around 6:15ish.

Nice! Sounds great!! And yes it's running perfect, the fuel pump was going out :/ Brand new from Aeromotive so they think it was a freak thing, but currently it's in the mail to Aeromotive so they can see what happened. She's in Cali now and I should have it back Thursday or Friday! :D

I was hoping to leave a little earlier? Idk, was hoping to get there early since Desert Z is going to be there at 6. Set up and line us all up kinda thing. What do you think? I can meet you down Olive next to your house if you wanna meet at like 530?

Oh damn, y'all are gonna line up?

Haha, not sure I want to go that far. I may be able to get up that early. Let me see how this week goes - it's election day tomorrow, so they may even want us to work Saturday.

Gianni 11-07-2015 11:16 AM

It was nice being part of the Z community but guess who just blew their engine? :/

Was out doing some runs with some friends and I over revved the Z and it just shut off. Got towed to Nissan Saturday.
