Uh, there can only be one Zele? I can't wait to have it installed and painted... then quad tip exhaust... Any good exhaust shop in Chesapeake? I had a hiccup with shipping but it will be here soon

The biggest reason is I have to do turn over with my relief and we only swap out personnel during certain periods/ports unless it is an emergency.

Also it helps if the boat I'm on had a helo deck.

Okay so u guys respond quick here lol

I cant even quote each response but i do appreciate everyones input

So first thanks for the info on the headers and cats. I really dont know much but the basics of what these things do, so unres headers will be more than enough.

Thanks for the info on the pulleys i figured lighter pieces are better for the engine but yea dont want that exploding..


And yea unofficial meet or official im down, but yea i take pride in my vehicle so need atleast the basics before i come , intake/cbe

And yea i prefer the Ark exhuast. I would order F1 but it takes me a few weeks to save thr money for it... I don't wanna wait another 6 weeks to put it on

And just got my jvc kw50bt installed yesterday with sirius. And now my VDC light is on all the time now... Only comes on when hydroplanning. So gotta take it back

Theyve always done right by me but i will look into that other shop so thanks

I can vouch for atlantic autosports on exhuast and intake only
They did my 13 maxima and my 12 pathfinder with no leaks or anything.

Charged me 200 and took them 30 mins

Is it the VDC Off light or the loss of traction light (aka wheel slip light)?



The loss of traction light will come on any time the car looses traction. The loss of traction light is the cars way of saying your going/turning too fast for the conditions. So it coming on during wet conditions is normal especially if you're planting your right foot on wet a road.

VDC can be a real nanny sometimes but it will keep you out of trouble most of the time. I don’t know what kind of driving experience you have but with a car like the 370Z you need to be very careful in wet/slippery conditions.

Yes the loss of traction light. I know it comes on when things get hairy but its not supposed to be on 24/7, even when sitting still.

I love how the vdc does correct normal driving when the tire speed is uneven
But the shop had to trip something as the light has been on 2 days straight without going off
