i know it could have been alot worse. Im just venting since i just bought this thing a few months ago. Before it i had an RX8 and as most of you probably know the rotary engine is far from reliable but i never had a problem with it. However my friends would constantly give me **** about its inferiority and made me paranoid that one day the engine would just fall apart. So i sprang and bought this since its much more reliable. But i know little things like this could happen to any car.

OMG - you let a woman sit behind the wheel of your precious car? lol. I know quite a few woman 350Z owners who could run circles around half the guys on these forums when it comes to wrenching on cars. My wife among them. Even my teenage daughters have changed a flat tire and jump started cars, by themselves. Anyway glad things worked out for ya.

I actually just had to change the battery terminals on my DD. It was pretty easy. I was able to do the entire operation with just my trusty pocket knife.

My Z isn't my DD. I have a 1999 Mazda Protege with 161,XXX miles on the odometer, and they terminal leads were very corroded and it was causing problems during the engine start-up so.

Ignoring the fact that my gf has driven my Z and the general topic seems to be to insult women... ...I'd trust a woman before a guy personally. At least I know she's not likely to drive off with it =\

Would be very awkward for the OP to snap pics of the whole scene, especially for the female helping him out.
