Has anyone installed eccentric lockout bolts with the Z1 tie bar? I saw a comment on the eccentric lockout bolt product page saying the bolts won't clear with the tie bar.
It helps to reduce bearing wear on the most stressful time on the engine (startup) by priming oil pressure. Honestly speaking, by the time the bearings wear out from slightly low oil pressure due to engine start after an oil change, we'll all be dead of old age
Good to know. Will visit the stealership eventually. It's super quiet right now, don't want to drive over there just for the service manager to brush me off.
Just noticed it on startup on my Z. '24 Nismo. Had to restart the car a few times to make sure I was hearing it correctly. I still have another year on warranty, so I'll wait and see
Install what you want on the car and leave resale value as the next guy's problem. Never understood why resale value is such a big deal, broader market trends and the value of the Z will matter more than whatever mods you happen to install. If the car is heavily modified, revert to stock and...
Making such a change is not "free". New part #, altered production line, warranty, QA and testing, etc. All to maybe sell a few dozen of these modified ones for what is likely already a rare part?
Appreciate the link. I've seen videos of this before and doing it on jacks sounds miserable but anything to keep the car away from the stealership lol. Good to see parts in the description but I don't have a shop air supply so I may as well just take it to the dealership :(
