  1. I’ve got a 2010 model and had the common steering lock issue. I found out that if you hit the box and get it into ACC mode and then pull the fuse it will stop it happening again. I've since pulled the fuse and got it working and drove home...and today I’ve gone to start the car and it’s still showing the same problem? Surely if the fuse has been pulled it can’t operate? thanks
  2. So after buying my first 350z in 2015 and then going onto buying a 370z in 2016 I have now gone and bought a GTR! I never thought I would own a GTR are 24 but after a lot of hard work and dedication its finally paid off. The 350z is now owned by my father and the 370z is owned by my other half which is pretty cool. Over the moon with the GTR, the power is addictive and the handling is awesome considering its size. Currently has full litchfield exhaust, updrated brakes, gearbox circlips and dodson syncros, 2015 rear lights and steering wheel, few carbon goodies inside
  3. The mpss are great, I've tried bridgestones and goodyears but the Michelins are better. I just got the new pilot sport 4S for the rear what a difference in turning!! The goodyears on the rear gave a squishy feeling but now the turning has become really sharp.
  4. Hi, Lately I've developed a soft clutch that sticks down when the car gets hot or I'm driving aggressively. I believe this is most likely the slave cylinder thats a common problem on these cars however I've also developed some other problems which include an intermittent loss of power when accelerating and also stalling. When stopped at lights it's stalled and also straight after starting the car it stalled. I haven't noticed any visible slipping in 5th or 6th.. Can a faulty slave cause power loss and stalling? No codes are showing. I would check the spark plugs and coils but I find it a bit strange that I'm having these problems now that the clutch has gone soft so maybe they are connected? Thanks!
  5. After hearing people that have been behind me say "you shot a flame". I decided to hook the Go Pro up for a few mins and this happened So i guess I do shoot flames haha
  6. Now that would be fun! How safe are TT on our engines though? Whats the install cost on a set up like this roughly?
  7. I've had two sets on the 370z so far... First set; Front - Original Bridgestones = Rubbish, had lots of understeer when pushed. Rears - Hankook (v12 i think) = Pretty good grip, a lot better than bridgestone. I also liked the stiff sidewall. Second set; Front - MPSS = Best tyre so far, can be pushed a lot harder and good grip in the wet. Rear - Goodyear Eagle F1 = Seems to have the same level of grip as MPSS but the major disappointment for me is that the sidewall is so damn soft!!! the rear body roll felt noticeably softer/squishy.
  8. The air to air sounds good! I've also been looking at the GTM kits but I think installation would be a lot more? Ever since I went in a friends 660 hp GTR its kind of made me want more power! I could save it towards a GTR but It will still be cheaper to SC a 370z as long as it doesn't blow up! Thanks for the offer! might have to take you up on that
  9. So I'm thinking about supercharging my 370z but I just can't decide on if it will be a good idea or not. I currently have bolts ons which are motordyne exhaust, art pipes, stillen gen 3 and ECUTEK which made 333 WHP and 283 lbft at the hubs. What sort of power are people seeing with the Stillen SC? Will it be a big difference compare to what I currently have? Comparing SC graphs to mine and their doesn't seem to be much difference down low, only once you get past 5k. Have been on a few us forums and some say its not worth it while others say it completely changed the car...
  10. If its safe to do so I'll usually drop it down and stamp on it sirocco was the latest one and he disappeared in my rear view mirror.
  11. pretty sure the disc is warped, when I spin the wheel the disc scrapes in a certain spot... I haven't had a good experience with them tbh because half the bolts on both rear discs snapped off after a month of driving!!!! I found out as a bolt head got stuck in the disc shield making a loud noise, after inspection about 9 bolt heads fell of in my hand.. The new sealed bolts they sent were slightly different so they must know of the problem to change bolts. Kinda puts me off buying the final drive gears from them,
  12. Hi, Im thinking about changing my final drive to either a 3.9 or 4.08. Has anyone from this forum done this? What do you think? I've heard that the 4.08 can throw off rev match, but I've also heard that this can be adjusted via ECUTEK? Is this correct? I'm already running ECUTEK so would be handy! Seems like a good mod to liven up the zeds according to the us forums!
  13. Hi, Anyone had any experience with Total oil? Had a quote for a p3 service and it includes Total oil but i've never used this brand before.. Thanks!
  14. No I got mine from the local stealership Ah, I heard from somewhere that you had to prove you have a nismo to buy a nismo bumper.
