You may need to rotate the spring.

Oh yah....

Stopped over a fellow 370 owners house today. Went to show him how you can switch between dif tuning maps on my UpRev, one prob, I was unable to cycle thru them!! It just stopped working. Im not really sure how thats possible but I cannot cycle to change my tuning map anymore. Anyways, Im

calling the tuning shop tomorrow to see if they can offer any insight.

Well guys... Sorry I've been absent lately...but this all happened in a flurry. Just started looking and shopping last week, tho I've always been shopping and keeping eyes open. Anyways offer came I couldn't refuse, and after research and test driving it, I traded my z in for a new (yet to be built) 5.0.

Uh oh let the flames begin lol.

Before u do though, just know these few facts....

1. I've always been an infiniti Nissan and Honda fan. I've always tended to frown on domestics. But i tried to go in to this with an open mind and no preconceived notions, and i walked away truly impressed. So impressed in fact, I wanted to sign after my test drive lol.

2. I wanted a car i could drive my wife and kid in and still have fun. I couldn't do that with my z. This need is what started it all. I enjoyed my z but family comes first.

3. That 5.0 was really THAT good. Truly. I have no regrets.

Thank u for all ur input. I hope to stick around the forum and hopefully still contribute to the forum.bi still love the zs and they're great cars but i had to move on.

Yeah thanks onzedge and happy... Sorry it may have seemed like out of the blue. But been quietly looking and just decided one day to test drive. I got tired of always leaving my family behind when I drive. I discovered that tho I love my hobbies, I love it more when i am able to do it with the people I love.

But i hope to stick around. Will post pics when I get it. I can post pics of what i test drove...lol... Same color...Hehe

happytheman · 09-22-2011, 11:44 PM

Wasn't really out of the blue. You had mentioned something a couple of weeks ago I think when Red__Zed finally made his move to a 5.0. It was to be expected. No worries mate..it's just a car after all. We can't expect everyone to remain brand loyal!

Nothing special-- Was on my way to school & I hit 1,111 miles. Lol. On top of that, a convertible 350z tried racing me, so I just toyed with him since he couldn't keep up.
