  1. Hands Up all the Aussies

    Spacers and HKS coilovers installed yesterday. The car drives sooo much better. It now works with me instead of feeling like it wants to kill me.
  2. HKS Hipermax R coilovers installed

    Yesterday I had some HKS Hipermax R coilovers installed as well as 15mm spacers. We didn't go too crazy on the height - just a nice subtle drop. On the way home I started experiencing a nasty kerthunking sound from the front so I had to take it back this morning - thankfully it was one of the...
  3. Hands Up all the Aussies

    There seems to be so many available for sale it's surprising anyone is still waiting. What spec did you order again?
  4. Hands Up all the Aussies

    I've given other Z's a wave and flashed the lights with zero response or recognition. Some people are just oblivious. Having said that a guy was giving me the thumbs up once (in a commodore no less) and by the time I released what was happening I was too slow to react. He probably thought I...
  5. Hands Up all the Aussies

    FYI these cheap LEDs make a great replacement for the crappy stock map lights. I believe they also fit the light in the boot aswell. https://www.amazon.com.au/AUXITO-24-SMD-Chipsets-Courtesy-License/dp/B094F9YCR7/
  6. Hands Up all the Aussies

    What kind of suspension did you go with?
  7. Hands Up all the Aussies

    HKS coilovers on the water and bound for my proto next month. There are much cheaper options locally but trying to keep it fully JDM.
  8. Modified Z vs Supra (Manuals) Video

    There's no doubting the z chassis is outdated compared to the Supra but I'm not sure those shockworks coilovers are doing the z many favours.
  9. ADVANCE Time Attack RZ34

    Does anyone have any real world experience with the Advan Neova AD09 tyres? A few of the JDM cars seem to be using them. PS4s seems to be a more popular choice in the US/AU but they don't seem popular in Japan.
  10. Turbo upgrade/replacement options?

    Storytime about your stock turbo??
  11. Hands Up all the Aussies

    Us Z owners sure do seem to like personalised plates ?
  12. 9AT jerks forward when stopping?

    Yep that has happened to me on occasion. Sitting there minding my own business and suddenly the parking sensor goes off for a couple of seconds.
  13. 9AT jerks forward when stopping?

    Yeah, like a slipping clutch. Maybe a 1 second delay for me. It only happens once though, after that it seems fine.
  14. 9AT jerks forward when stopping?

    I haven't noticed it at all on mine. The only issue I have is that the very first shift when leaving my driveway from 1st to 2nd slips a bit. It's especially noticeable in sport mode. But once it's warmed up there's no issue. I also think it goes too quickly back to auto mode when in...
  15. You can put a child seat in the Z?

    Most definitely the passenger seat and not the boot/trunk.
  16. Whine from drivetrain (high pitch)

    Defniitely haven't noticed any noise like that with my (auto) Proto. I would be constantly hounding your dealer constantly until they fix it and raise it with Nissan head office if necessary.
  17. Hands Up all the Aussies

    Well done on holding out and getting the exact spec you wanted. Beautiful colour! And looks like you took it on a nice drive your first day too.
  18. Hands Up all the Aussies

    I don't mind the practicality aspect. My problem is I love the styling of the Z, I've already put a bit of money into it (exhaust, tune) and I'm not sure the Mustang will fit in my garage without substantially rearranging it! But I'm pretty sure overall the Dark Horse will be a better car and...
  19. Hands Up all the Aussies

    I did see that a few people had their allocations confirmed a couple of weeks ago. My dealer called me around the same time but just to confirm the options to load into the system. I placed a deposit on the day it was announced and was 10th in line at my dealer (but 3rd in line for a manual)...
  20. Hands Up all the Aussies

    Were you able to recoup what you paid out of curiosity? I also have a deposit down on a Dark Horse and not sure what I'm going to do if I get allocated one. It's almost certainly a better car than the Z in nearly every way (except styling) but there's something about the Z that connects with me.
