Hauling lumber home from Home Depot for my new fence is difficult and it takes 23 trips.

I got 99 problems and my Z aint one.

Need to go pull my steering lock fuse at storage, which is about 1 hour away...

Ah hell, nvm this, I'm taking her in to the dealer this weekend for service anyway.

You can fit three...the third has to be an animal like a dog or cat however.

Ok there Yakuza assassin wannabe. Before you purchased your Z, didn't you notice the more practical vehicles for your 'profession' such as the minivans and pick up trucks?

I took 4 trips (20 mi round trip) to the tire shop to drop off my wheels and tires. Only one wheel or tire fits in the rear (gutted) and one sits on the passenger. It was a fun drive!
Only two trips after everything was put on though. lol

I been having this issue with my 2011 370z nismo. A couple of months ago I been having this problem in The front right suspension when I take a hard left turn the right suspension feels lose or the front tired moves and that side of the car doesn't feel tight compared when I do a right sharp turn at the same speed. I took my car to get align 4 times already and not much of a change. I change my front bushings with spl bushings and I notice the car is tighter but a couple of days the same problem happen again. Another thing when I do a u-turn to the left the front right if the car it hops but the left one doesn't hope when I do a right u-turn. Can anyone give an advice what should I do. Even in the freeway the front right tired it feels that it moves a little to any direction compared with the left and I have to grab the steering wheel with both hands to keep the car in a straight line, specially when there is groves lines in the freeway. Any advice ?

get your car on jack stands, and shake your wheel left and right to see if it shakes loose. what does your alignment specs say. if your toe is TOO close to 0 up front then the car will tend to follow grooves on freeways really easily (kinda turns the wheel for you)

fyi might get better responses in the "brakes & suspension" tech side of forums.

Did you get all those alignments done at the same place?

What suspension do you have. What tires and how old/worn are they.
