i just purchased my first Z and im new to the import world PERIOD im interested in getting to know as much as possible about this car like wats the best oil fuel additive and so on and so forth

 

This site has a plethora of information. Search, surf, and read and you shall learn plenty.

Oh, and congrats on the Nismo. Fantastic car.

 

Oil fuel additive?

Is there a language barrier here?

Either way, welcome to the forum!

 

well i run premium 93 in it for fuel and being the largest investment i have ever had i wanna take the best care of it.....OH!!!!! you guys would know my oil pressure is always fluctuating on the analog gauge from 30 lbs to almost 120 when i really get on it and the tranny seems noisey is this all normal?

 

congrats on the pick up.

 

Put 93 in whenever you can. I have to settle for 91.

The oil pressure gauge should go up when you put more "pressure" on the engine, and when you let out the clutch in neutral it sounds like a can of rocks being rattled around?

Nope, never heard of either of those issues.

Just kidding. Both are normal.

Search and learn youngling. the internetz are yours for the taking.

 

wats it mean when the "slip" light flashes on my tac?

 

Ok, you have to be catching on by now.

Last freebie.

It means your traction control is "stepping in" to tell you that you pushed the pedal on the right too hard and you are going to kill yourself if you do it again.

ok ok...lol

 

Congrats on the excellent choice of purchase!

It's hard to come up with a question that has not been answered 2 dozen times on this site. One of the best car forums out there.

TIP: Sometimes using google.com and including "my350z" in your search provides results that are easier to sift through.

 

Congratulations on the Nismo! Excellent choice.

 

Congrats!!! I love mine too... only had it 4 months. serial number to be determined!?

 

welcome congrats on your nismo.

 

Wow...you got off easy! Nice purchase. Enjoy it.

 

Yes both completely normal, look at the ZSpeed CSC slave cylinder as the stock units are prone to failing. If you do that also purchase the master cylinder as well. This solves a lot of the issues with the clutch that the 07-08 cars have.

Here's a link for you

Stock clutch is noisy and gets worse with lighter weight flywheels and aftermarket clutches. These are really the only big issues with the car. If you want to get fancy they make an aftermarket pedal assembly that makes shifting much smoother and would improve the overall drive-ability of the car as well.

The HR model Zs aren't cheap to modify but they're low maintenance and a blast to drive once a few factory kinks are worked out!

 

Congrats on the car, you picked a great one to start out on.

 

The transmissions on the Z33's always sound weird but it's normal. It pissed me off hearing it when I first got my Z last year but I got used to it. Also these cars are designed pretty good, are built to last up to 200,000 miles and can even handle getting cheap fuel once in the blue without any issues. Also very reliable and inexpensive unlike some of it's American and European counterparts if you treat her well. Just get 93 fuel octane, keep tires inflated correctly and keep up with other regular maintenance and it will last a long time.

 

noob with a nismo..
