Dude relax, it is starting to sound like you can't afford the cost of ownership.

I can afford it, but I dont think its fair to pay $1700 dollars every few months for Parts Nissan; Design, Manufactured, and Installed!

Hopefully My car will be fine from now on, but It's still frustrating.

what people seem to forget is that the nismo 370z has nismo suspension parts, a nismo exhaust, forged aluminium ray wheels, and a sweet bodykit that is functional(so imo most of the looks work is already done from the factory)

imo the nismo can use more HP but over all im happy with the car, i personally got my nismo because of the upgraded parts and the extra hp(it isnt much but its still more then the base/touring) plus i can save the money i was going to spend on rims, body kits, and coilovers, i can save towards other mods like bigger brakes, engine mods, and interior luxuries

pull the fuse or cut brown wire while in ACC. your steering lock will fail again eventually. check diy.

Does definitely suck, just noticed you bringing it up in a bunch of unrelated threads. You're preaching to the choir so to speak.

I made my peace with it. I mention a few msg's back that I wasnt trying to go off topic, that the Nismo Still look Sick and that I still love my Z. The Steering Lock Issue happen to me just a week ago and I still dont have my car, so the wound lol I guess you can say is still fresh.

But again, I made my peace wtih it. Lets end it there.

Interesting tire size, same 10.5 rear rim width as the street nismo but it wears 275 instead.

And no I ain't doing the red stripe on my grill lol
