Just finished a six day drive around Lake Erie through Michigan, Ohio, Pennsylvania and New York. I must say that my previous ride, an RX8, used to get a few looks and questions (my favourite answer to the 'how many cylinders?': 'Zero') the 2010 Z drew more attention and comments than I ever expected.

Even in Amish country! (I think those boys just wanna be boys).

Z OH 08-11-2010 02:46 PM

Thanks for making me feel stupid guys!!

It's nice to see that a lot of the owners of 370Z's we see on the road are on the forums though :)

I know it has some cosmetic mods... figured it may have some engine mods too lol

Took the Carbon Silver Z for a run to Toronto today - crap weather but awesome drive and no mental traffic jams. Saw a Black 370Z ragtop parked in Leaside (Bayview & Eglington) looked nice but right front corner was smusshed....ouch that must suck. New ride and crunched already.

Wanna go Shannonville some day?

BTW, have you noticed any difference between before and after of Z1 oil cooler?

yeah, i'd definitely like to go to shannonville. i don't see any trackdays for there this year on touge, or even the pay per lap. what did you have in mind?

yes, the oil cooler definitely makes a difference. on the street, temperatures are about 80-90 or go up to 100 if i push it, even in hot weather. compare that to before the cooler, where my oil temp regularly went to 110 even on a relaxed cruise, and would go to 120 or so with a bit of aggressive driving.

on the track, my temp never went above 110 even when i was pushing hard. granted, it was cold on sunday, in addition to the track being short and tight so you only really use full throttle for 15-20% of the lap or so. but still, i'm pretty sure i would have hit limp mode even then if i didn't have the oil cooler. i predict a track like shannonville with more full throttle high rpm pulls and at a higher atmospheric temp would probably heat the oil a bit more, but i'm fairly confident that even then, the oil temp will still be a long way from limp mode. i definitely recommend a 34 row cooler for anyone serious about their trackdays.

Too bad Touge don't have anymore scheduled at Shannonville anymore this year. But sometimes (eg: last year) they had unscheduled lapping events as late as early November. Check out KPLAYGROUND also, they host alot of track events at Shannonville.

Touge had a few Shannonville lapping days at earlier this year, however I wont recommend going to any Touge hosted events at Shannonville when it is Very High Season simply because theres too many cars.

One of the July event they hosted had 50+ cars that went, and they had to limit to something like 30- cars on the track at the same time, and had a line up of 10+ cars waiting to go out. IMO kind of stupid for them to let so many people go, its a little bit dangerous due to the amount of cars on track = increased chance of accidents.

checked the kplayground facebook but it doesnt seem they have any future events this year. its actually possible for us to book the track. but quite expensive unless we get a large group of people to split the cost. that's why we need the z owners to get active and set up a new club, so we can do things like track days.

6MT 09-07-2010 09:37 PM

You guys sure do have a lot of 370's in Toronto.

They'll be announcing it very soon.

i wasn't in the z, i was driving my brother's es300 coming out of avoca drive. i was actually in a pretty foul mood after an altercation with construction workers. you can read about that in the thread i started in the lounge section.

LMBmikeZ 09-09-2010 08:40 PM

today in KW area I saw white Z (Dizzy I think) heading east on hwy 8 coming in towards Kitchener, I wasn't in my 40th though so you wouldn't have seen me I was in GF's lancer....


Was it you Dizzy (pm sent)

Nope - wasn't me! I picked up the car, put it in the garage and went on vacation the next day. Now, back for one day, and then I'm going to a friends cottage till next Thursday, so it's sitting in the garage. 52km's on it and not likely to get a single one more for another week or so! No worries though, I didn't want to do a bunch of driving until I had the Ventureshield applied.

I will have had a brand new Z for almost 3 weeks and put 40kms on her!! It's driving me NUTS!!!

LMBmikeZ 09-10-2010 11:13 AM

wow, crazy then someone else also has one same colour!! crazy cause it is one of the colours I have yet to see in person, actually I think until then it was the only on I had yet to see I have even seen another 40th around in Waterloo!

Well plus the one at Gregg Vann Nissan that they only wanted to "lease to me" WTF is that BS, and now it is the owners car with dealer plates I lmao hard every time I drive by and he parks it out front cause I know he'd want to sell it now! Ironic I found out talking to an older co worker his daughter works at Gregg Vann as parts manager, turns out the a$$ hole is a real **** and tells her to mark up (100% no little mark up) all the time on everything!!! makes me a little happier knowing that that c0ck sucker is not getting any of my money!

I will hate them till the DEATH!!!VENDETTA!!! lol literally I don't care if he died a horrible death, and I'd eat his children!

soul24 09-10-2010 12:20 PM
