Has anybody taken any pics from today’s meet?

I'd put it on a diagnostic tablet & graph all 4 corners on a screen, the graph will show you which (if any) are dropping out. My Launch does this, very handy indeed.

Stability control will be a constant calculation using yaw rate, steer angle and wheel speed. It will intervene if it detects oversteer or understeer by applying brakes and cutting engine power. Can't answer for specifics on zeds, but that's the general idea.

Couldn't agree with you more, and a car that not everyone is aware of

What wheel is locking up on right turn? Is the wheel locking up without applying the brakes? All parts are in stock to fix this issue. Hubs, ABS sensors, yaw sensors. etc. etc. etc.

Hmm, so do you know if the stability control works solely from the yaw sensor or would the wheel speed have an input?

Not a future Nissan but OMG, the Nissan that made me fall in love with them! That car is beautiful 😍

As far as I'm aware abs does not apply brakes but the stability control will.

Ye, zero codes though and drives normal when it's straight/gentle cornering. Just kicks in abs when I turn right

I take it you've scanned it to verify you're on the right corner? Does look knackered that though.

A pair of door handles, unmarked and ideal for colour coordinating. As most will know, the 370 had 2 differing manufacturing materials, some were all, plastic construction, others were cast aluminium frames with plastic handles, these are the latter. Both types fit exactly the same. £40 inclusive of postage. Really isn't a big job to change them over, there again not much on the Zed is.

Coming towards the end of my restoration and I've got an issue with the brakes. New pads and discs fitted but when I turn right the abs kicks in and gets to lock the wheel up, quite scary! I've pulled the hub and sensor to take a look. Sensor looks fine but the hub has some weird marks on the abs ring. Assuming this is the issue I've ordered freshies but just wondering if anyone has seen such an issue? I'm not sure what cas causes the marks either 🤷🏻‍♂️ Car turns fine with abs disabled btw.

Hey Both! I Appreciate both responses! Ye it's just the shields on the cats as the cats passed the MOT absolutely fine. I think I might find out if they can take off the shields and then go from there. I Don't use Nissan for repair work just because they're a bit to far away but I can't fault the Nissan dealer I do use, they've been unbelievable, they do stuff for free for me, get free european breakdown recovery and courtesy car. I suspect a more unique dealership than most of them though haha! Alex I may reach out depending on what the buyer wants to do and the garage as well. Thanks again, really do appreciate it!

18" Forged wheels ......by RAYS.......WITH TYRES for £400 is a bargain! GLWTS

Looks like about 20 confirmed for this so far! Looking forward to this😁

As has been said, just remove the corroded heat shields, but only if they are badly corroded. Exhausts tend to rust, so general cosmetic rust does not affect its performance. Aftermarket exhaust, including Y section, is the way to go when the time comes. I am dismantling a 370 early next week, so parts will soon be available, but reading your post, it appears that replacing these parts may be unnecessary. Alex.

You too Jer! Will keep you posted if I find anymore Z goodies

Couple days left to go, weather looking just about lovely for us too

If I wanted to keep it stock, I'd rip the rotted cat shields off (they can't fail on rot then can they) and then get an exhaust from any decent exhaust centre. I wouldn't touch a Nissan dealer with a barge pole because I wouldn't want to be paying their hourly rate. If its the CATs themselves that have rotted through and not the shields, I'd buy a used pair of CATs (off ebay or someone breaking a 370z) If I'm keeping it, I'm fitting HFCs and a sports cat back £1800 ~ £2000 budget.

Thanks again Mike, much appreciated, and nice to meet you 👍

No I haven't, I was worried this might do something to the immobiliser. It's in the shop getting some paint repairs at the moment so won't be able to try it just yet.
