    Went from 350z. Had a civic beforehand. Thought about it for all of 4 weeks then bought one. Same goes with the 370. Went to see it at the show room then 2 months later got one. 370z was much smoother for me. 350 had a better seating position

    Agree on the 370z seating position, it’s way too high

    That's a fair coincidence, the same cars and in the same order as me haha, you've clearly got good taste :thumbs:

     

    Although I am really eager for a porsche even just for a year then get a 370z. so if money allows I'll get a Cayman s if not a 370 and put porsche dreams on hold.

     

    my s2000 never had issue at all  from 100k to 118k apart from a worn chain tensioner but you could remove the drive worm inside, sand blast it to rough it up again and put back together (a little tip i learnt off another owner, new ones were £270)

    I had 52 reg with hardtop. Id have another one in a heartbeat, brilliant little car and better looking than the gen1 z4 or boxster competitors.

    My s2000 was a 2007 model and under warranty it needed 

    new clutch

    new engine short block

    new VSC ECU (stability/traction control )

    hood catches 

     

    I must say Honda were superb in replacing the above and always gave me a courtesy car. I’d love a Porsche but scared of their durability and how much it will cost to keep it tip top. I live about 3 hours from the nearest Porsche dealer so a bit of a trek for a service. I did consider an e92 m3 but was not impressed with it compared to the e46, it was technically better in every way than the e46 but just felt a bit too refined for my taste. I also considered a z4m coupe but they are very rare and expensive here in Oz. 

       I’m loving the 370z and plan on keeping it for a long time. It recently went on a trip into the mountains with v8 mustangs,falcons,and utes, rx8 and focus rs and the z was superb especially the brakes . Usually I have my eye on a future replacement but for once I have no plans at all, the big Z is here to stay .

  3. Well the module finally made it here down under. I just finished fitting it and so far all seems good. Push the button and the lights on the dash light up telling me everything is off. Not had time to drive it yet but I don't anticipate any issues. Install instructions were excellent although I had to laugh as step 1 was to disconnect the battery and then step 2 said move the seat (electric ) all the way forward. Also you don't have to remove the gear knob  (I didnt) I just leant the back end of the centre column up against the passenger headrest and this gave me enough room to access the yaw control box. 

     Very impressed with the product and the service.

  4. Very slightly Loosen off the two bolts that hold the door latch striker plate (shiny bar thing in the door shut ) . Don’t loosen too much so that it moves by hand, just crack them loose a little then close the door and open it a couple of times. This should locate the plate to the correct position. I’ve used this method many times and always solved any sticky clunky door closing/opening. Oh just in case you undo the bolts too far and the catch plate drops out of position make sure you first surround it with masking tape and draw some locating marks so you can always return it to its original position should you need too.
