Although I believe I’m keeping my Z, I’ve believed I was keeping a lot of cars and didn’t a single one. I would definitely do this if I knew for sure it’s a keeper. So many saved frustrations. I totally get it.

lol, that or my wife would be told the whole town thinks I’m gay because my car says fairlady. If you really want an answer to your question, understanding the differences in gesellschaft and gemeinschaft societies is critical. gemeinschaft “a spontaneously arising organic social relationship...

OP covered a lot. If you had to advise a minimal install to cover the majority of hits, would bumper and hood cover us?

I realize it’s common sense that turbos still running at redline wouldn’t be tuned in our cars to be dead down low and screaming at the top. Seems like a supercharged car or two that I’ve owned the boost was all low and then the drag of the useless SC actually got in the way at the top. Maybe...

A couple of thoughts on this.. You have to remember I’ve had 30 new cars and 8-10 used cars. Some cars if you tweek out enough you can figure out that the engineered oil level is not the exact fill mark on a dipstick. That happens mainly due to using shelf parts sometimes in more specific...

THE hardest fact for a manufacturer to fight is seeing an oil kit receipt with unique date, that matches your service log, photographed with your miles showing on your dash behind it. I’ve thought it through. You can fake basically everything except that, without photoshop and stupid, desperate...

Do our turbos actually get in the way at highest revs?

Yeah, see we don’t even know if the device is normally closed or normally open. I wish we could find more about what it is and what it’s doing so we can decide how to resolve it. I’ve heard explanations, but they don’t include usable info beyond it’s a solenoid controlling oil flow. When? How? Why?

Most of the cops here have their radar on when stopped for duty. Detectors tell me I’m approaching school zones and wrecks before I get to them. They also warn me a cop is likely on the side of the road ahead somewhere. I do like being reminded to check my speed, but my detector is a safety...

I don’t see how its a PITA for people.

Nobody just buys the ECU from Japan and installs it?

Hard to tell. Maybe clean the rim and back up for the pic. I can’t tell if it balances the red body trim or looks like too much red. I think I really like it though!

Has there been a single engine loss on this forum?

Wow that looks stretched you could easily put a 295 on there.

My nephew just took third at the Old Gray GNCC where he was in 1st the whole time and a bigger kid ran him into a tree. Came back and got on the podium.

We need more info to figure out a replacement/delete option. There has to be one. I’m also curious what are oil pressure conditions I look for with the engine working hard.

Of note, your only experience with the 9AT is the Nismo. I’ve been driving for 36 years now and have owned at least one manual if not 2-3 at all times. The 9AT in the Sport will bridge that 90’s-to-modern gap you sensed. It’s not a Nismo AT, but it’s pretty close. The AT has a lot to do with...

There are two tire break-ins. First is traction. Other is breaking in the physical tire components. Traction is 100-200 miles on PS4, both summer and all season, with summer being shorter. NVH while breaking in is almost always 500 miles now with the compounds used in modern tires. I’ve had a...

I don’t know if anyone has posted this, but here are some specs for the old 7AT vs the new 9AT. 700 nm ~ 516 lb-ft
