Is the 350Z strictly premium fuel (which I know is better) or can they get away with running the cheap still like the G37?

 

i think the lowest it said in the book is 91 octane,

 

You bought a Corvette though trav, that's acceptable, I've said I won't sell my z but I would to buy a Z06.
The owners manual says nothing lower than 91, I've ran 93 in mine since I bought it in '04, the book says you can run 87 in an emergency, just make sure you only fill the tank half way, don't accelerate hard, etc. and fill up with premium right away.

 

yeah but i bought the Z with some insurance money when dad passed, so it had some sentimental value, but then i guess he technically helped me buy the vette too since i turned that money and put it straight down on it

 

My baby girl already called dibbs if I die young haha. I'm looking for a dd now. I'll keep it unless it turns into a money pit.

 

That's understandable trav.

 

After talking with my better 2/3, I think we are going to pass on this one and look for an 07-09 coupe. After another test drive, I like the coupes better. I'm now looking at this one.



I'll have to get my wheels for this one, but this is the color I was wanting when I was looking at the G37 IPL.

 

Bone, as a favor-
provide online links for the boyz to help you out.

 

on the hr's (07-08) just so you know, the internal slave is known for going out. when it does, replace it with the zspeed hd one or you will do it again...... trust me on this one

 

Doesn't the 09 use that same engine?

 

the 07-08 motors, dual throttle bodies, changed internals, higher redline... little more power

 

how do you know it's going out.. mine was done under recall before I bought it. I don't drive her much but want to know what to look for

 

Doesn't the 09 use that same engine?

 

09 i think still had the issue.... and the 09 convertible is still the hr motor, not the vhr like the 09 370 coupes. it is not a hard fix, if you were local i would let you bribe me with beer to help you change it. only part that sucks is you have to drop the trans

 

when mine went out (both times) the clutch pedal got easier to push in for a couple days, and then the pedal will stick down when it goes... give it time and it will come back up some but will stick down making it damn near impossible to drive

 

That is funny (not really). I just replaced the slave on the Camaro 2 days ago.

 

Geez... what about the 2005-2006? They also have a 2006 dark blue enthusiast on the lot. It only had 8,000 miles on it.

 

06s (not all) have been know for oil consumption issues, but have the nicer headlights and tail lights like the 07-08s


you have to pick your poison

 

Poison indeed. I guess all cars have something. The clutch issues are hard for me to deal with at the moment, because I have had a rash of clutch issues with the Camaro over the last 3 years and the thought of having them with the Z makes me wanna puke.

 

if you do the wilwood master and zspeed slave, you will have no problems going forward. mine is 2+ years going and no issues.... the new owner (a friend of mine) has no problems to this day
