If you think the Nismo is rough you should try sitting in a BMW Z4 with run flats LOL.

It makes the Nismo seem like a comfortable cruiser in comparison! 

Looking forward to the pics dude! What are these NISMO decals you speak of?

Hey all,

Does anyone have any accurate 1/4 mile times for the 370Z with twin turbos or a super charger?

With FI is the 370Z capable of being a sub 12s car on street tyres?

Thanks

I have the exact same issue on my car. 2017 Nismo 370Z with just 6000 miles on it.

Hey all,

Looking at recent cars, I can see some 2018 cars are now starting to come with "red" stripes or accents on front and rear bumpers. For example I have seen a 2018 Golf, Alfa Romeo, Hyundai and Kia all with red accents on the bumpers now.

Was the 370Z nismo ahead of the curve? Looks to be the new styling trend.

Thanks

Sold, mods please lock.

Today for sale is my Stillen cat back exhaust off my 2017 Nismo, this exhaust is pretty rare over here in the UK.

• 15 lb/ft Gain Torque
• 304 Stainless Steel Construction - Long Service Life & Dependability
• Polished 304SS 4.5" Dual Wall Tips
• Aggressive Tone Without Annoying Drone
• Limited Lifetime Warranty

Price:  

£700 Collected or £700 + shipping (For reference these retail new @ £1644)

Collection is preferable due to the size of the item, based in West Yorkshire.

Hey all,

So I have had my 2017 370Z Nismo for a couple of weeks now and I am loving it! It attracts a lot of attention. Quite a few people have called it a "GTR" or have even come up to me and asked me about my "GTR" lmao.

Im guessing people just see the nissan badge, think it looks nice so must be a "GTR" lol!

And thats my story for today.

badges = tailgaiters trying to see what it is. Looks cleaner. Makes no difference most nissan car owners know what it is anyway lol theyve prolly seen it sitting in the showroom...Nismo badge is a must though

Most people have no idea what car it is lol. How many 370Z Nismos do you even see on the road?

There’s a mk2 nismo exhaust on eBay currently at £50

Thanks dude, I have had my eye on this one for a couple of days, how can you tell its a MK2 Nismo exhaust and not an MK1?

Thanks!

Then get short tails? Short tails are perfect for the car, but you do lose backpressure which helps with torque. Did you buy the short tails already?

Hey mate, I actually have a set of short tails already that I bought recently, they just don't line up with the flanges on the stillen. Looking for a stock system atm

When I said drop significantly I meant significant spikes, not total drop in value. I expect the total value to drop a lot over time but not necassarily drop to the same level as the 350s. What do I expect the bottom value to be on the 370s?! That’s the question! If I were to guess that the 350 bottomed out at 3k then I would hazard a guess say the 370 may be something more like 4K. 

Just for clarity, when you say "bottomed out" what sort of spec car are we talking here, GT edition with how many miles?

Bump, still looking guys

think i'll give this a miss after doing a bit of research on the Stillen exhaust as i think it will be a bit too tame for me. If you struggle to find someone to swap and need to buy a standard Nismo exhaust let me know. 

No worries dude, and thanks!

I’ve got an OEM Nismo Exhaust for sale, if it helps a non Nismo owner buy this Exhaust, Was removed when the car was 9 months old and had only done 950 miles

Rubbish. Jap cars got away with ‘soul’ because they had sh*t interiors, German cars got labelled as bland because they didn’t. I don’t buy into that at all, any car that’s fun has soul regardless of where it’s from. 

What? Most German cars are hardly better than Jap cars in terms of interiors, with the exception of Porsche which do have phenomenal interiors.  And most German cars are bland in the styling and excitement department no doubt about that. 

Anyhow we are going off topic here lol.

Bought a 350 about 5 years ago. Sold it a year on for a similar price. 

 

Bought my 370 2 years ago and the prices people are putting up online seem really quite low! I don’t think I over paid at the time. 

 

Am I just imagining it?!

2 words. Depreciation curve.

Nah mines not new. 60 plate. I’m just surprised at how quickly and by the level of drop in value.  I’d expect it more for the newer cars. I guess I was kind of hoping the older 370s were close to their bottom as the 350s are.

Did you over pay? I have friends who bought around last year, and in that time prices have not moved at all.

the laws of supply and demand   

This has a huge part to play as well, as nice as the 370Z is, it does not have the same prestige as "PORSCHE" or "BMW" and thus lacks desirability for a lot of people no matter how good a car it is. 

On 02/08/2018 at 22:30, davey_83 said:

It'll come from folks wanting a big front engined naturally aspirated, 6 speed manual rwd sports car. A combination already rare to be had out the showroom. 

Enthusiasts crave this trait imo, the 370Z is a very old school car. Big NA engine, RWD, Fat tyres, Hydraulic steering. No fancy sport modes or electronics, just old school driving, how ever this is not something that appeals to everyone. Saying that I bet if BMW produced a similar car it would be "loved" by critics and people would flock to it lol.

Shock news, 100 Jap car fans in the UK don’t buy an M3  

 

I very much doubt the minuscule amount the 350 bought in had anything to do with bringing the GTR back, bearing in mind how long cars take to design and when the prototypes were first shown. 

Agreed, how ever the GTR may have a positive affect in terms of the "Prestige" factor of Nissan as a brand, or maybe not lol.....

On 04/08/2018 at 14:43, Jetpilot said:

Ive agreed with you dude, an M3 was in budget but i wanted a 350 (i am that man you describe), but no matter the romantic ideal of wanting a lesser car imho more characterful, i thought my my 350s were a pleasure to own, you cannot escape the facts and you only have to look at M3 prices now, opinions of being visually lost on the road has absolutely zero bearing on current prices or demand, surely that is clear, argue the merits of each car all day if you like and they were direct competition by the way but thats a completely different topic. We are talking values and demand and its clear because of the M3's prices in comparison to either z where that demand lies, there is no speculation, it is just the case plain and simple. Or lets ask another question, is there any Nissan Z car worth more than its counterpart M series? I will save you the time, No.

 

Hrab you are right, there is always an exception to the rule, NSX is a good example, low sales but now an appreciating classic and i shall choose my words carefully, if you honestly think the 370z has the merit of the NSX to break the rules, go buy a few and see how you get on in a few years. Regarding the HR, it is the best and last incarnation, thats where its value lies, same as the Spirit R Rx7.

 

There have been many cars that at the time were very poorly rated, yet later became classics, the automobile world can be odd at times. At the same time I can see your point about the M3 being a better car all round, refinement, speed, chassis, handling. But as an investment piece I wouldn't bet on it either. Way too many E92 M3's produced for it to ever appreciate, its just like most other mass produced cars.

Whilst on the subject, I do struggle to see the 'far superior' car thought pattern. Just to add I've sat behind a M3 being driven very well round Silverstone national and it weren't getting away at all. Similar weight and giving up cicra 60hp, I weren't blown away. Also around the Nurburgring taking into consideration acceleration, braking, high speed corners, low speed corners - it's all of 4 seconds faster over the 13 miles.....

 

Reliability, we all know the horror stories of the S54 and rear subframe. It's not a far superior car. 

 

Subjective I know, but they don't sound a patch on the VQ35 either....  

 

Either the Z33 goes rounds bends faster or is better on the brakes. Saying as i see it.....

 

 

There is more to a car than speed. The Z34 platform has soul, the way it drives makes it something special. It has imperfections sure, but its part of what makes the it, it feels like a raw driving experience that is not matched by many other cars on the road today. An M3 technically is a better car in every aspect, but does it make you feel the same way, or are they just to clinical?

You do realise that those Best Motoring vids are the equivalent of a Top Gear challenge? 

 

You say say you’ve sat behind an M3, have you never driven one? It’s dangerousiy close to perfection for the money, only the brakes let it down. The chassis control is sublime. Honestly, I love the 350 but the M3 is better in every way outside of looks. 

The M3 is a very nice car, but its very different to a 370Z in terms of drive and feel. German cars are very clinical and precise, almost too the point of perfection. Japanese cars tend to be more around the soul of the car, the car culture, the way the car makes you feel. Two very different types of car. The M3 is no doubt the better car, but is it the more "enjoyable".

I may be interested in this as i have a Mk1 Nismo exhaust just sitting in the shed at home. Are you 100% sure this is a Stillen exhaust? 

Hi mate, yes this is definitely the Stillen exhaust, it says Stillen on the tips and the muffler / resonators all match up. I believe it is this system: 

https://www.tarmacsportz.co.uk/nissan/nissan-370z/370z-stillen-stainless-steel-exhaust-systems-dual-wall-tips.html

Is the MK1 exhaust identical to the MK2?

Thanks

Hey all,

Context: I bought some short tails for my car, but they will not fit as I did not realise my car had the Stillen CBE on! It must have been fitted by a previous owner. I require the stock exhaust to fit the new short tails, so hopefully this makes a good deal for someone.

Mileage: My car only has 5k miles on it, so the maximum possible amount of miles on this exhaust is 5000.

Trade: Stillen exhaust for the 370Z Nismo MK2 exhaust + £250 cash 

Collection or even meeting at an exhaust shop half way somewhere to perform the swap is ideal. 

Apologies for the not so great images, hard to get pictures of the underside of the car! lol

Looking at prices of custom mid pipes it is probably going to be better off for me to trade this stillen system for the stock nismo exhaust, might post up in the classifieds on here

Hey,

Looking for a 370Z Nismo exhaust as mentioned above!

Thanks
