ScottyZ Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 I've just picked up my new 370Z GT and have noticed in the boot area some empty spaces in the polystyrene where I assume some tools should be. The tools I've got are Continental air compressor and tyre sealent,recovery hook,wrench and locking wheel nut and thats it. Is there anything missing? It just seems like there are loads of empty spaces in the polystyrene mouldings where I assume tools should be. Cheers, Scotty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris`I Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 Nope that its! In other countries other tools are mandated. So far we have worked out that other countries may have a jack, a pair of pliers and a few other random bits and pieces that I cant remember. In the UK we get a pump, tire-weld, lock nut key, tow hook and I think a wheel nut wrench/breaker bar (cant remember if the last one is there or not).

geoff-r Posted March 3, 2011 Share Posted March 3, 2011 So technically UK ones will be faster thanks to that 1kg less Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ScottyZ Posted March 3, 2011 Author Share Posted March 3, 2011 As I've got the roadside recovery and don't do much milage I've decided to lose the wrench and towing hook which meant there was then no need for the side boot mouldings they sat in. This still left the large central moulding to house the Compressor,Sealent and Locking wheel nut key. Total weight saving= 1.8kg Now that's what you call OCD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Peter10 Posted March 21, 2011 Share Posted March 21, 2011 I love how you get a wheel wrench but no jack . Strong back and thighs needed . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ebized Posted March 26, 2011 Share Posted March 26, 2011 Get anything other than a basic puncture and the gel will not work so for peace of mind I have a spare (350 spacesaver) and jack/handle that fit in the spaces provided and the Bose unit fits neatly inside the spacesaver. Spacers needed at front to clear the larger 370 calipers but as I have these to give the car a better stance - job done there Yeah, it adds a bit more weight but peace of mind, especially if in a weak mobile signal area, matters more to me.

Colin, Where did you get the spacesaver, was it from a dealer? Cheers Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin, Where did you get the spacesaver, was it from a dealer? Cheers From another member on here who had sold his car and chucked out out his spare in favour of some mega ICE set up. I'm sure there will be other 350 owners out there with spacesavers taking up room in their garages.......... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
