I just ended up using the generic one they sell at the auto care center, which surprisingly fit rather well. Might as well get your money back.

So there's an "Auto Show" locally here in Spangdahlem AB set up with a free dyno. Any body going to it? It's Aug 6th and 7th.

I just got orders for Germany Question tho, ive been reading that the DB limit is 90, so im guessing i cant have F.I. LTH and a Catback exhaust and still pass? I know i have to take window tint off as well.

Just bring your stock exhaust and swap it for the inspection, I didn't bring mine but I found Animal_Solo and we swaped for like a week and then switched back. Haven't been stopped and I got ARK on mine. Yea unfortunately tint has to be off...

OK well i just pulled the ARK and tossed it in the Household Goods Shipment...the movers kinda were surprised when they came to pick up my stuff. Full exhaust system, set of rims +8 tires, and a ton of other parts for the car lol.

Ill pull the tint before putting my Z on the boat but i still dont have a date for port. I need to get that figured out soon!

The Ring this weekend?
 

Anyone feel like heading out to the Ring this weekend. Superbikes will be racing and we can do a few laps while we are there. Planning on going Saturday and Sunday for now.

Mozen-Sounds great hopefully you get a date soon and that there are no complications on your move.

ww77-I'd love to go but my car is still in the shop. Should get it by the end of next week.

Yo 370Z team! Dave here in Stuttgart. 2010 370Zw/sport arrives to me on Monday. Car only has 600 miles on it. Metblack with black cloth 7AT. I have the US plate holders on it front and back.

I plan on getting 2 long plate frames tomorrow from the Nissan dealer near my place. Ive seen 1 at work with long plates mounted on the US holder in front and back. I will ask about the Euro plate holder for the front.


Im up for meetings and drives as I love to drive here in Germany. My other ride is 2009 Abarth 500 with a G-Tech ECU and about 170ps! Fun :) Z should be even better :)

Pics of the car from the dealer who had it in Houston. Prior to shipping I had it sent to Baker Nissan North in Houston for a Z1 Motorsports 25 row oil cooler, GT-R red start switch, rear brake light and splash guards. They are a good dealer/tuner in Houston. Z U later :)

The Euro long late will fit on the rear, I just stuck the long one in the middle of the windshield. It took my NISMO just under 3 months to get over here and I will be out of the country on Tuesday for 6 months.

I hear ya, Baker Nissan is awesome! They do most of my work.

If you have the stock exhaust i strongly recommend getting it installed and ship the aftermarket stuff in your hhg. I sent my truck over there and it barely passed the decibel limit. Actually it failed the first time and took it back on a nice day (it was raining the first time) and passed with no problems. Also, if you don't have cats they will notice. It won't fail you, but you won't be able to go in certain areas. For example, my truck didn't have cats so I wasn't legally allowed to drive in downtown mannheim. They are called green zones and depending on various things you get different numbers which restrict where you can go. No cats= no sticker. And yes the window tint will have to come off the driver and passenger side windows. If your tires stick out from the body they can also fail you for that as well.

Team 370Z Germany,

What oil are most of you using and where are you getting it. Is the Nissan Ester avail over here or are you getting it shipped rather than pay euro prices. Any response would be appreciated.

Thanks, Dave

I usually use castrol full synthetic but I'm about to use Royal Purple. I get mine from base in Spangdahlem

Corona thanks for the response. Z1 seems willing to ship and oil change kit here with the Nissan ester. I only have 2000mi on my car right now so the first service will be factory (still under warranty as well). I want that(Ester), in the car and then after possibly Red Line or Purple. Have fun and thanks for the reply.

Dave

Yea I got lucky with them! A member of the forum here connected me with them!
