Also anyone know where I can get a stock tune thrown back on the car??
since chad is an uprev dealer, he should be able to upload a stock 370 map for your car. OR the original shop that put the tune on your car should have your original ROM file laying around

I woud rather lick the floor of a peep show on half price night than go back to Executive. I'll have to hit Chad up when I get the kit off the car and it back to normal.

Well, had my Z about 2 weeks now and not happy with how tame the sound is. Ordered some Berk HFCs today to make me content for a bit
Will probably pair up the Berk CBE eventually, but wanna hear how it sounds this way for a bit

I love the Nismo stock sound, but I'm very ready to have something more aggressive.


I learned a hard lesson with my 350Z though, so I refuse to sink too much money into this one until its closer to being paid off. And before I do that, I have to find/build/get an AR before isht hits the fan. Luckily I think the wife is going to buy me one with our income tax return for my 40th birthday here in a few weeks. We might put the rest into the principle left on the Z, so that will be a huge dent in paying it off. So parts shall ensue shortly after. :-)

I gotta get some stuff in there so I can show up at the meets without looking so stock.

Well to start there is a violent knocking noise from the motor in the morning when cold. and the thermostat I replaced 3mo ago isnt opening.

thats just the beginning, it honestly needs at least $7-10k in repairs and such just to get it back to "proper shape" at 147k everything is failing now.

not sure its gunna be safe enough for zdayz this year. for the dragon or the trip there.

And Im having hard time justifying picking up a car payment. Dont get me wrong I love the 370, but for me, is it 3x the car?? I dont think there's many cars under $30 are worthy of paying heavily every month for or are that much better than my z

then im back in a stock car too

really struggling with this now..... im mean you all talked yourself into them, do you ever regret it...... especially those of you who have had z33's (or g's scott)

Well I think my steering lock fuse just went out. I can lock and unlock the doors but can't start the car. Even tried putting the fob in the desk slot. I'm gonna get it towed good thing it's still under 3 yrs/ 36 k miles.

Under 3 yrs by 1 month.

well.... i would like to say i have been 100% sold on my z, but car payments do get old. with that being said, i do love this car. its nice turning heads like i'm driving a $200k car when i take it out.

there are other options for your car purchase. maybe a newer 350? base 370's are going for like $21k now too

So as soon as the tow truck rolls on base it has a problem with its air breaks. Now I'm baby sitting the tow truck until another tow truck comes to help him and get my car.
