Looks like my CSC is damn near ******, I've got almost no pressure in my clutch pedal except right at the floor, so I don't think I'll be there.

Looks like you guys had a good turn out. Wish I could have made it. I had my own fall drive up here in door county though

So on Sunday I felt some vibration while breaking ? Could it be the breaks since I haven't touched since I got the car or could it just be some alignment?

Do your brakes make any noises? I dont know if worn brakes cause much vibration, more so you'll notice decreased stopping performance and noise/sqeaking.

It could definitely be an alignment issue.

If it's only while braking it's your rotors, they're warped. I have the same issue. Stock Nissan rotors are garbage, all 3 of my Nissan's have warped the OEM rotors before 30k. I'm planning on doing my brake upgrade over the winter.

jlo370z · 10-22-2014, 07:09 PM

Mine warped over first winter but I'm still driving on them. At least one more time Anyhow.

Yeah, typically shaking when braking = warped rotors. Shaking at higher speeds (not braking) = wheel balance.

I'm loving my Z1 2 piece! Not a fan of Z1 in general because of the oil cooler crap they pulled on me, but these seem solid!

osbornsm · 10-23-2014, 11:07 AM

Doesn't feel like working at work, or at home for that matter.

*sigh
