what little or big things did you find out AFTER you purchased the Z.......
No matter what i do to my climate control, my AC compressor comes on. i can turn the fan up or down, it comes on. temp up or down, it comes on. its ridiculous how much nissan wants me to use my AC.
I kept wondering why the top wouldn't always go up/down, or only go partway..
I assumed it was broken since I purchased it used.
Took me a bit to realize my foot had to be on the brake the whole cycle
I also found out pretty quick that ultra yellow draws not only looks from most everyone around me, but also all the cops

I learned that the reason I had to push my hatch open button twice was not that nissan is stupid, but that my hatch shocks are worn out.
Also learned (from another Z owner who warned me) that closing the hatch with your hand in a certain spot every time can create a small "impression" in the hatch that can crack the paint.
Still havent figured this one out. When playing in a empty parking lot with my VDC off it eventually gets stuck (unable to switch it back on) with the slip light permanently on until I restart the car.

Holy crap. I've been lurking on the forum for years since getting my car 2006 and only now learned about the trunk release over the license plate, pull tab under the bar, and the ability to lower my windows by holding the button!!!
Found that engine had been replaced at 50k miles for oil consumption at Nissan Dealer.
YAY! Found that front tires were showing cable the day I bough the car (KDWs now
) When I did my first oil change, I saw that the bottom (passenger side) chassis area was completely covered in oil+ gunk, like if the previous owner blew the oil filter and drove with it for 5k miles... O__o
This weekend Im finally getting to clean the bottom side of the car
PURPLE POWER!!!
