nismoip Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 Hello all After picking up my JDM 350z ST for a few days, I was wondering if anyone can confirm if the 350z ST spec has Cruise Control? as on the right hand side of the dash there seems to be 2 buttons for this, but I can't seem to get this to work!

lomoto Posted May 22, 2008 Posted May 22, 2008 didnt think the JDM cars have cruise at all ? I think you'll find they are radio control buttons Quote
nismoip Posted May 22, 2008 Author Posted May 22, 2008 nothing happans to the radio? Are the buttons on the right of the dash not used at all then??? Quote

Sarnie Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Cruise control buttons are on the steering wheel, not the dash..... Quote
IanS16 Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Off topic sorry but what is the circular metal thing on the bottom left of that pic? I have one in my JDM but havent seen anything documenting it? Quote

sl114 Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 its a real **** that JDMS dont have cruise control!!! dont they ever do any motorway driving over there?! GRRRRRNot sure why anyone would want cruise control anyway, i prefer to be in total control of the car no matter what, plus its more economical not to use it Quote
dcash5 Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 Sorry did i just see a post with the word 'economical' when refering to a 350z. Thought it was on forum rules that this word should not be mentioned Quote
Rob_Quads Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 I find the cruise control really useful on late night drives down the M3 - when there is virtually no-one else on the roads its great to be able to turn it on and just sit back. As for more economical - only just and *most* if they say will sit at 80 will end up drifting up to 85/90 when overtaking etc. This then negates the driving yourself is more economical. While the 350z is a great car to drive and have fun in there is still a place for CC on those long journeys Quote

Ian Posted May 23, 2008 Posted May 23, 2008 I only use the cruise control when im coming through road works with cameras or average speed areas. Quote
