  1. What are the torque specs for the front and rear brake calipers (performance)?

    For some reason I cannot find the torque specs for the front and rear brake calipers in the service manual. I remember Z1 saying the fronts are 91ft*lbs https://cdn.z1motorsports.com/upload/Z1_370Z_G37_Q50_Q60_Front_Brake_Cooling_Kit_Installation_Manual.pdf, but what of the rears? I can't seem...
  2. How do I fix the fuel starve issue?

    So due to the saddle bag design of the gas tank, hard right-handers will move all the fuel from the right saddlebag to the left saddle bag. I have experienced fuel starve at half a tank and this is no good. Has anyone attempted to fix this issue? How hard is it to do? I'd imagine the fuel tank...
  3. Anyone know what the size of the clutch bleeder screw is?

    Looking to replace it at some point with a quick bleeder, but I cannot find the size of this damn screw. If I had the size, I could order the part. Thanks!
  4. Will the Nismo Intake need a tune?

    https://www.z1motorsports.com/nismo/nismo/nismo-2023-nissan-cold-air-intake-p-41460.html I was offered a used version of this (I don't know the price yet), but I for sure do not want it if it requires tuning the car. I like what Nissan has done with the power plant, so if there isn't any other...
  5. Does the AT exhaust setup fit the MT version of the car?

    One thing that would be nice is a louder exhaust. As y'all already know, the MT variant has a muffler the size of Texas because why not and this causes the car to be quite silent. I don't want to spend a lot on something purely performative, so something cheap like a muffler delete is an option...
  6. Are there any 2 piece rotors cheaper than the single piece rotors you can find on RockAuto for this car?

    A lot of people at the track say that the 2 piece rotors are cheaper since you only need to replace the disc and not the hat, but I find that all of the single piece rotor options from RockAuto to be cheaper then the replacement discs for the 2 piece rotors. The only upside would be a lighter...
  7. RIP. Press F in chat for another fallen one.

    This is in Houston, TX. Looks like he either sideswiped someone, or someone sideswiped him. Either way, probably totaled as it ran through multiple body panels. I don't know the full story, but I saw it as I drove past a Nissan dealership.
  8. Crack in windshield.

    Is a crack in the windshield unwarrantable? My warranty is on it's 3rd year, so maybe bumper to bumper can cover it. I fear it will not though. Any ideas?
  9. Dust Boots burning up constantly

    I've done 4 track days in my Z so far, and have rebuilt my brake calipers twice now. The car is a mostly stock performance manual with just pads and fluids upgrades. My primary issue are the dust boots which prevent dust from going back into the brake caliper and prevent micro tears which can...
  10. Coilover upgrade questions.

    After having a scary track day (110MPH slide off into the grass), I am starting to want a much stiffer set of suspension. Even my instructor on board said the car probably would not have stepped out on me with a tighter setup. There are SO many opinions on this, that at the end of the day, I...
  11. Anyone have experience with the new "compatible" TPMS sensors on rockauto?

    https://www.rockauto.com/catalog/emailpagetofriend.php?nurl=%2Fen%2Fcatalog%2Fnissan%2C2024%2Cz%2C3.0l%2Bv6%2Bturbocharged%2C3454543%2Cwheel%2Ctire%2Bpressure%2Bmonitoring%2Bsystem%2B(tpms)%2Bsensor%2C12036 So about 8 months ago, I decided to buy some aftermarket TPMS sensors that unfortunately...
  12. What is necessary to remove the SIM card and GPS hardware?

    What would I need to do to remove the SIM card and GPS hardware without debilitating the machine and throwing error codes? Has someone tried this yet? I would imagine most of the equipment to be on or near the infotainment. I would like to remove it to disable a path my government can use to...
  13. Anyone experiencing a rapid oscillation of brake power intermittently when lightly on brakes?

    I haven't figured out exactly what is causing this yet, but I do see that my front brake calipers have torn rubber seal boots. Also the pads I ran at track have uneven wear from the top to the bottom as the bottom piston was activating more freely than the top piston. I think the oscillation...
  14. Why shouldn't I daily a 0w30 oil?

    I was looking at heavy weight alternatives to the stock 0w20 nissan recommends due to occasional track usage. I see some people use 5w30, and that is what I am using right now for track time. I recently stumbled upon a 0w30 that seems perfectly compatible to all of Nissan's requirements for oil...
  15. WIll any generic cloneable TPMS sensor work?

    Looking to be able to swap wheels on/off for street/track use. I saw these on rockauto for 30$ a pop. Wanted to get these as they have a speed rating far above what the Z is capable. The issue is that a couple sites like autozone list them as incompatible with the car. How can they be...
  16. Which track setup should I run of these two?

    I want to run my OEM wheels on the track since they are forged. While shopping around, I saw the Dunlop Direzza ZIII on sale and would like to get a set of ultra high performance summers for the track on the cheap. The only issue is that there are only two sizes in 19s that are available...
  17. Another "will they fit" wheel/tire question.

    Hey I know these kinds of questions are plentiful, but It's nice to get some validation. Hence why I'm asking :). I tracked my Performance trim Z the other day, and realized that street tires are not good for tracking. I actually need to buy tires built for the track. And if I do that, I think...
  18. Anyone know what the high pitched whine in the sound clip is (6MT)?

    Sound clip of high pitched whine The whine only happens on cold start and goes away once the car has warmed up a bit. It's been happening since new, so I've just ignored it. The sound goes away if you depress the clutch. It sounds kinda like straight cut gears ? . Happens in neutral or when...
  19. Anyone know what the stock wheel fitment for the performance model is?

    Trying to figure out what secondary set of wheels I should get (for track use). This website seems to make a lot of sense, but I'm missing a bit of data. https://www.wheel-size.com/calc/?wheel1=255-40-19X9.5ET40&wheel2=265-35-19X9.5ET22&fcl=15mm&wcl=53mm&scl=15mm&sr=0mm I did "ghetto"...
  20. Clicking sound only when getting on throttle, and off throttle.

    I normally don't drive with my windows down, but decided to do that more often after going to my first HPDE event. I was driving through my workplace's garage and noticed a click sound when I get on the throttle, and a tad after I let off the throttle (The time delay is probably due to the rev...
