So who has stored their Z

NFSZ86 · 11-04-2011, 07:55 PM

Mine is going away the 9th =((

TripleBlkZ · 11-04-2011, 09:00 PM

Well I was going to store it next week but today I found a wear/tear mark on the roof

Took it straight to the dealership and spoke to the head guy

first he said we will take it to our detailers and get it patched I'm like

so he took pictures and said he is going to contact Nissan Canada and see what can be done.
I am thinking new top and have to fixed before storeage I don't want to deal with this in the spring and with my luck it will be a new guy there that has no idea of the issue...

End of the month for me....so trying to enjoy these last couple weeks

Weather is holding up down east. May get another week or two of driving in before the fire and theft only insurance goes into effect. GaleForce is correct about the tune. The tune is programmed into the ECU in the ROM as he stated. I would never use a trickle charger as they can over charge the battery. Use a 'smart' type charger like the Battery Tender which is recommended by Harley-Davidson.

After driving one winter with the G, I would not want to do that again. Which tires did you get and which size?

Give you full credit attempting Montreal snow...

Never store it, maybe because I live in Sunny California. Driving days per year based on weather = 365.

End of the month for me too, i haven't seen snow yet (thank god!) aha once they start throwing salt is the worst! they throw so much in my area like it grows on trees or somethin

zcar_dad · 11-08-2011, 02:50 PM

I am ready but as long as it is above 40 degrees, dry and no salt on the roads I will drive as long as I can.

MD-370z · 11-08-2011, 09:50 PM

That must help...so I guess no pictures of your Z buried in snow lol.

I was considering keeping it plated and drive on those extremely dry days...but pointless, no snow tires and Im renting my space in my condo and owner wants it back...so storage for me

TripleBlkZ · 11-09-2011, 08:37 PM

1 more day, today was top down crusing and tomorrow should be the same then rain/snow forcasted for the next week she will be in a nice warm garage covered by then.
