How did you like the results of turning the ASC & ANC off?

If I'm correct, the sport model comes without an LSD, and the factory uses synthetic fluid. The Performance and the Nismo have an LSD and they use conventional oil. I'm guessing that the LSD will chatter if the wrong stuff is used. Maybe a synthetic can be used with a friction modifier, but I...

How many miles did you change yours at, each time you did it? And, how did the second time compare to the first?

I just changed the differential fluid at 6,000 miles. It was WAY dirtier than I expected. There were also way more particles on the magnetic drain plug than I expected. I wish I did it sooner, but I didn't think it would be so bad. I recommend that everyone does this on their car. I'm sure...

I would love to also hear what they did to fix the starvation issue. If it's an easy fix, I would like to do it. I looked into the additional pump and didn't like it for a few reasons. If I remember correctly, one of the reasons were that the fuel gauge becomes very inaccurate. I don't...

I haven't felt it in a really long time either

I remember clearly. I actually bought one to track it. I broke it in, then started doing research for brakes, etc. During the process of researching, I realized that if the car made long high G, sweeping right turns, the oil pressure would drop! It wasn't as simple as a baffled oil pain to...

Thank you! I do have the owner's manual, but it’s the USA Manual, and it doesn’t have the chart with the different viscosities, it only lists 0w-20 oil. I wanted to see what the approved viscosities for the engine was, other than the 0-20. I didn't want to see the oil recommendations based on...

I wonder if this tactic drives the prices of older ones up a little. If I sold mine now, I would lose the shirt off of my back, but maybe now, if I sold in 1 or 2 years from now, maybe I could get what I paid (supply and demand)? That would be nice but would probably never happen. I'm good at...

Thanks guys, but I wanted to see one specifically in Australia. I know the USA ones request 0w-20. I wanted to see the wording in the Australian manual, because I have heard rumors that it's different, and wanted to see it exactly how it's written. Anyone here with an Australian owner's...

Can somebody do me a huge favor, and post a picture of the page in the owner's manual, that shows the engine oil weight recommendations?

Thanks, and yes, I do a lot of track days. Zero problems so far (knock on wood) It's 100% stock other than brake fluid and brake pads. It is a very capable car out of the box. If you put in "traction" mode, it won't do anything unexpected, and rotates nicely. Keep in mind, it's a rear wheel...

Toy on our side of the earth refers to buying something that you don't actually "need", but bought it because it's fun to play with and enjoy playing with it. Every car I own is a toy. For actual transportation, I steal one of my wife's cars, lol You are not completely wrong though, because...

Yes I know it's not the case with the Z, since the Z needs to be all the way up (or almost all the way). I was just pointing out that it's strange that they want the level lower than max. It's the first time I saw that. Other brands ask for a slight overfill. I guess we have to trust the...

I never personally compared. But from what others have said, it supposedly sounds a lot better than the M/T version. I went from stock A/T version to AWE Touring. I really liked the sound and tone of the AWE, but decided to go back to stock because I started to use the car more for daily...

Thanks Matt, but I already bought one (Automatic).

That's great news! Please keep us updated on the repair, as well as what the exact problem was (if they can determine). Also, why they thought it happened in the first place, and what can be done to prevent it from happening in the future.

Thanks for the detailed response! I have Autel scan tools, as well as OBD2 plug in modules (one for my VW and one for my BMW). But not sure how I can set up my Nismo to give an audible warning for low oil pressure or high oil temperature. At least for the oil temp, I have a gauge. But for...

Exactly the conclusion I came to. Thanks!

Do you happen to know which OBD2 module would be good for our cars to signal an alarm for high temps, or low pressure on the oil? I would really like to purchase one.
