  1. Another catch can worry...

    That reply speaks volumes to not only your technical ignorance but your social inept when someone disagrees with you. You sound really young. It's not your fault. This is what happens to people who lack original thought and get all their answers from Google/AI. Do yourself a favor and call...
  2. Another catch can worry...

    I can't speak to GM's system cause I quit fu@king with them decades ago due to maintenance issues. Same reason I choose the Z over the Corvette. To me saying GM and better is like saying Lawyer and honest. It just doesn't go together. Toyota's been running their D-4S system for 20+ years...
  3. Another catch can worry...

    Oil vapor is blow by. Your right about it being an issue for DI engines ( except for Toyota). Even if it's not detected by looking at your dip stick all engines have a degree of blow by aka oil vapor. Good earl and dino juice does in fact help reduce the intake issue. Granted, nothing's going to...
  4. Another catch can worry...

    In Reference to top tier fuels, saying the fuel never sees the intake valve is obvious and short sighted. If you didn't know, blow-by is what causes the intake valve carbon issue. Non top tier fuels only use the minimum standards for the additive/detergent package. The top tier fuels go beyond...
  5. 9AT Transmission fluid flush service

    Just did the trans and diff service myself with 40K+ on the clock. Just like the oil, the diff got changed early and then again at 20k and present. Got the pan and trans fluid from Z1. Got the special tool off Egay. With the pan bolts being aluminum I did get new ones. It's hard for me to tell...
  6. Another catch can worry...

    That response is on the money. Also stick with top tier fuel. The people most likely to end up with this issue are the regular Joe's and Jane's that get around to doing their oil change when they get the service lamp. More so than not it'll have an easy 1k over the already 10K OCI. Worse yet if...
  7. Preferred battery replacement?

    If your car comes with a lead acid battery you'll want to do some research before installing something other than that. There's a reason why they have a switch on battery maintainers/chargers for lead acid and other batteries like AGM's. The charge rate/voltage is different.
  8. Preferred battery replacement?

    I'll give ya a amen on that brother. My 2020 RAV4 is still on the factory battery.
  9. Gasoline

    I get that all day long on mine too if I'm railing the car. If I stack up enough triple digit pulls it'll drop into the mid to low 20's
  10. Fuel rail leakage

    Just checked mine. I run without the engine cover, so easy enough to see. As your looking in the engine bay I noticed the left fuel rail fitting had a lite coating of dirt on it with the right one being cleaner. Being closer to the dip stick I figured it might have picked up some oil residue...
  11. What's your car payment, details, etc.

    Got my 2024 Performance in November 2023. The hardest part then was finding a white one at MSRP. They had them jacked up between 5/7K. Finally found one out of state. I gave them a grand to lock me in on the price until I could get there. They had it in the showroom. I asked the manager to send...
  12. Any Dyno information after a cat back exhaust?

    A tune might be your best bang for the buck
  13. Oil Pressure Solenoid

    On the 13-14 psi was that with 0-20 or 5-30
  14. What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    Thinking about this myself. I apologize if I missed this but I didn't see/read anything about it holding more oil. 6 quarts is fine with the factory pan just not reading anything that shows extra capacity. It wouldn't be the first time I overlooked something.
  15. Things New Nissan Z Owners Should Know (Before You Panic After Mods)

    It had been brought up as a question. With a piggyback, is your boost gauge showing the higher boost. For lack of better word, the piggyback fools the ECU which in theory doesn't leave, shall we say any (being the key word) evidence of out of range operation. The vendors who sell said components...
  16. What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    I was checking on an order from Z1 Motorsports. I figure while I was on the phone why not ask about our little oil discussion. So I talked with one their guys that races drift cars and is part of the crew that prepares our cars (not to be confused with a GTR) for track events. He was familiar...
  17. What did you do with your Z today? 🙋🏻‍♂️

    Well brother, I have no doubt that may be the case for the GTR. I'm saying that's not going to be the case with the Z. In reference to monitoring engine temps/press w/ alarms the first one that comes to mind is EcuTek.
