Pretty disappointed. The handling was phenomenal, but the engine wasn't where it needed to be. When you add in the elevated engine temps and the throttle response...WTF? Moving on to something else... Damn.

You know there's a Nissan TSB that applies to 2009 model year Z's, right?

Thread on Nissan oil consumption TSB

If your car falls under the TSB guidelines then there wouldn't be any fighting with the dealership - even if they balk, just contact the regional Nissan rep yourself.
