I reviewed 4 Nissan Z's and this is 1 thing I hate..

[drive615]

The fourth Nissan Z I have tested now! I still hate just 1 thing about it unfortunately..

 

[bpeckham]

The gas cap door? The bolsters? Getting into neutral? That no one knows what it is? I watched the review, and I could tell what the complaint was.

Have you checked to make sure that the shipping spacers were properly removed from front springs? Reason asked is your front end looks awfully high (as mentioned in vid) and the gap between tires and fender is enormous, which I understand is unfortunately a common problem with dealers not doing their job correctly during pre-delivery inspection/prep due to them not bothering to remove those shipping spacers before delivery. For reference, here's a shot of my NISMO taken at stock height before lowering was done. As you can see, the gap between tires and fenders is fraction of what yours appears to be in video.

1 thing I hate: clickbait

I noticed the fender gap at the end. Typical.

Let me help you ID the transport block that is shoved in the spring. Gotta remove it for it to look better. You can do it yourself by lifting the front end up, or have the dealership learn from their mistake

The '24 Nismo with the Spacer block still installed

That's just par for the course for 80% of content creators nowadays, though (not saying it's justified by any means.) It annoys the hell out of me too but at this point I just assume any title caption or title card has a strong probability of being misleading.

Kinda wanna request a mod remove this as self-serving their own pockets without serving the public best interest, but kinda don't wanna overreach :/

I called him out on his Y/T channel, big surprise I have no audience so he’s not gaining anything (reciprocal link/SEO-wise). I do agree though, this nonsense is toxic to the community (and brand).

I say if the video mentions "400Z" then we should escalate.

 

[FSUZ33]

A guy at work yesterday asked, “is that your NISMO?”, which turned into a ride around the block, although it was leisurely, didn’t push it. When we were walking back in he mentioned ”blah blah blah 400Z…” and I immediately regretted taking him for a ride.

Some aftermarket websites have 400Z in their ‘choose your vehicle’ selection, and I’ve literally left those websites when I saw that. Not every time, but I have. I’m not sure why it bothers me so much. To me it’s like looking for A90 Supra parts and the website lists it as ‘Zupra’…which would be hilarious to me, but I’m sure it would peeve Zupra owners.

 

[Thefunk]

I understand using "400z" as a hashtag for sm posts to reach people though. But you're selling parts as a business and you list the RZ34 as "400z" you suck. What's even funnier is that "the new Z" has less syllables and is easier to say...

I took all my spacers out, and mine doesn’t sit that low. Wondering if driving it 500mi with spacers on the front messed up something. Nissan dealerships- don’t get me started.

you are fine mine doesnt sit that low either

 

[alienpoker]

Agree it’s just clickbait- he’s trolling with the “1 thing I hate”. He probably hates all cars. If I see Outbrain on a link or this type of title on a YouTube video, I’ll ignore it to watch something more worth my time.

Thanks MCN1SMO… the Silver Z sitting low looked like it had stock wheels & tires. That was what worried me. I’ll just wait & see if the crappy roads around here help it to settle lower.
