Nice!
Surprised you haven't gotten yours yet?!

My Nismo landed at the port of Vancouver on Dec 29th
And i'm told it's arrived in Montreal via Rail yesterday.
Should be at the dealership by end of next week.

Either way, glad your's is coming through!
Darn the snow fall in the last weeks :(
Was hoping to drive it home - now i'm dealing with a transport instead (SafeAuto)
Coordinating all this for a February on my driveway/garage!
Yeah I am kind of surprised too, it landed at the Toronto compound last week, hasn't made it up north yet. He figured it'd land this week.

Sucks about the snow yeah :( The last few weeks here haven't been too bad, the roads have been decent and dry, but of course, lets throw a blizzard into the mix for this weekend LOL

Hahha I feel you!
Just getting my garage squeaky clean as I await everything to line up

Also working with a local dealer here for full PPF and Ceramic
Likely do that when the snow clears and drive it over for the work to be done.

Hey @StrikeS30 don't forget the winter mats!!!

also have you decided what to do about the front license plate install?

for mine, i told the dealer not to mount any front plate holder. I am currently keeping my front license plate on the dash, but it makes a rattle when i drive :(

maybe there's something on amazon i can buy to hold it steady.

also whatever parts you got in that big bad box, kindly send me the part description/number if you have it. i hope it looks good in red. (front lip/side skirt)

Paisley's not too far, we should meet up so I can thank you in person for helping me get my Z!!

Wait i'm not done yet, when your Z arrives (and if it's performance trim) and if you have an iphone, please check if the wireless apple carplay works! Mine does not and it's driving me crazy. I was promised wireless !

also for anyone that is storing for the winter, if you don't want your battery to drain and decide to unplug the battery terminals. please be aware that the passenger and driver windows rolldown automatically to open the door (stupid design in my opinion) so make sure the window is rolled down a bit before doing that.

I told the dealer just to go ahead and mount the frame for now. I wasn't too concerned about it, as I think it's a fairly less invasive install, believe two small holes get knocked out inside the grille, and I don't want to be dealing with the hassle of the no front plate tickets. Ontario cops are a pain for that. :(

Also, I'm an android user

It's the Z1 Carbon front lip, and matching sideskirts in the big box! They're a bit spendy, but should look fantastic. I'll PM the links

I noticed the light where the cell phone goes near the charging ports. Is that new for 2024 ?

Just received an email from buynowjapan that my watanabe wheels just shipped! I ordered at the end of November which was really quick. Too bad the wait continues until this shitty weather goes away ?

Congrats again!!!! It’s a great feeling!

before you rip your hair out trying to connect wireless android auto make note of this (I texted my dealer):

I purchased one of these things during black friday and it was not good. Small delays when switching tracks from spotify and disconnects every 15mins
