Good call

I did get a code at first, but that's only because one of my MAF sensors wasn't plugged all the way in. After clearing that, no issues. Neither of the other two cars had any codes thrown either.

It is the relearning process. Mine was still doing it yesterday. If it starts doing it when you turn the car on, just let it finish and settle down. I was worried something might be wrong with mine because it did it for about 5 minutes the first time I turned the car on. But it finally settled down and is driving fine

Still odd that Ike's didn't do this though.

Thanks to Corner3Garage, I have springs, spacers and camber arms on the way. Also working on picking up a NISMO bumper conversion kit this weekend from a forum member.

Yes.... the issue seen in her video. It is the relearn process, I'm certain.

Well it kind of did... just one time though. Mine did it for several minutes (like 15-20 cycles in a row) on multiple starts. I'm no expert, but I think everything is fine

today, what did I do with my Z today? - I let SDPD inspect if for "Modification Violations" the cops are doing a sweep in San Diego for illegally modifications and cars, and mine and beautiful done 40th apparently fits the profile. I wasn't profiled, the Z was.

the officer got his measuring stick out, check the ride height on all four corners and center, ask that I open the hood and show him the engine bay, but that I needed to remain in the car while he inspected. He did touch anything, but he did look very closely.

He did give me a "Fix it" ticket - No Front License Plate. Can you beleive it, No front plate, 25 minutes of this guy crawling up my FI exhaust pipes and out my air clearners and he gives me a ticket for No Front License plate.

I guess I should feel lucky, it could have been worse, but does anyone have a MowerAxle front license plate holder for sale? It apprears I will be needing one.

All Z'd Up, and pulled over to go...

CRC MAF Sensor Cleaner for the MAF sensors - we had actually done this several months ago.

CRC Throttle Body Cleaner for the TBs.
