Just to check, that the rubber blocks are removed from the suspension coils?
PS, its not usually good practice to incriminate yourself for speeding regularly on a public forum!
Hi,
What do you mean by the rubber blocks? is this something they come with as stock that should be removed? i bought it from a dealer so not sure to be honest

Hi There,
I've had a 2014 nismo 370z for a few months now, last night i was driving through a tunnel, dry conditions in third at about 70-80mph, it has a very slight bend and the car just kicked out, out of nowhere pushing me sideways in to the next lane then fishtailed the other way, luckily the tunnel had 2 lanes so i managed to save it and the traction control helped me out as well, this isn't my first sports car and I've had cars such as a supercharged s2000, skylines, 350z some running 500bhp etc and i just wouldn't really expect this from the z at that speed on such a shallow bend, never had anything like it in the 350? i drive through this tunnel every day and its not the first time I've been through at that speed or higher.
its not the first time its happened either its just the first time its been so aggressive but it always seems to be in a straight line or on a slight bend, had it in 4th before at fairly low speed for that gear around 60 very slight damp conditions in a straight line and it starts kicking out.
any ideas? tires are REO50's and seem to be fine.
Cheers

Hi there,
my engine management light flashes a few times then goes off randomly, it might do it again an hour later it might not do it for a week, seems to be at low revs but that could just be coincidence, car seems to drive fine other than that, ive ignored it up untill now as it had only happened twice in 2 months but went on a 300 mile round trip yesterday and it happened 3 times....
anyone know what this could be? Il get it in the garage to get error code read next week but just want to check it doesnt sound like anything major as need to drive it in the mean time
cheers

Hi guys,
got decats on at the moment with a nismo cat back and love the sound but getting annoyed with swapping around every year for MOT's, will it sound the same with the berk HFC's? or will that quiet it down a lot?
Cheers

Cheers guys, tried the normal reset procedure over and over!

Cheers

Hi all,
fitted a brand new window motor and followed the reset procedure to the letter, window will roll up and down fine on non auto, and will roll down fine on auto, when i try to auto up it just moves up a couple of mm then back down again, if i role it up non auto an inch then auto it goes up to half way and stops!
also it doesnt go up and seal when you shut the door.
Any ideas?
I hate 350z windows!!

New tyres needed, umming and urring about aftermarket alloys...
...needs a new front bumper but I am now looking at all sorts of full bodykits!
Take it you don't need to do much to yours?!
got a few plans for mine:
plenum spacer
ams pulleys
new y pipe (flexis on mine are gone)
remap
possibly a chargespeed rear bumper but not sure if that will make it look ott...

Sold my old car and bought a Z the following day! Would have really been interested in that one you got if I had sold my old car sooner. Adjustable ride height and new exhaust as well hasnt it? This is my purchase ...
yer thats right, looking good, like the plate! u got plans for it or gonna leave it standard?
JM

I was chatting with the guy you bought it off I think, he had it advertised on here and pistonheads. Nice car, decent wrap on it.
yer thats the one! you still in the market for a z or you found one yet?

hi guys,
my car is already vinyl wrapped and id like to get my arches rolled, does anyone know if this is possible? what effect could/would it have on the existing vinyl?
Cheers
JM

Superb, recent purchase?
yes mate only had it a few weeks, well happy!
JM

got the car valeted today so thought id take some pics!

i always though that people didnt like this for when it comes to selling the car, anyone can google the number plate and find loads of posts (good or bad) that could put buyers off.
could be wrong? personally it doesnt bother me though.

thanks all, checked for transport blocks, i cant see anything so doesn't seem to be the issue, I'm assuming the transport blocks are quite obvious to see?
i google imaged ''car shipping blocks'' and some seem to be big obvious block things and others hidden under seals etc
Cheers
