Default inefficient dealership

I cannot belive what just happened today , yesterday I left my Z at the dealer to get an inspection for the top that did'nt want to open .

today they asked me to come and speak about that and also about my diff

they said they checked the electric connection from my top and everything was fine but could'nt figure out what was the problem.
and they said since my car is heavyly modified ( ) it could have been my problem then I would have to pay the repair if it was my fault .. ok then


I took an appointement on next monday for it since I needed a car this week-end and they did not want to give me a car.

When I came back at home , I decided to look into that problem , after 20 mins I managed to find the problem and now the top is fully working .
there was a wire which wasnt completly connected under the passenger seat.


Well i'm not sure if I shoud give them back my car for a quote to repair my diff ( broken bearing due to the wrong spacer and collapsible spacer)

I wouldn't take your car to the dealership for your diff since you have the 3.917 FD. They'll rape you for labour and then they'll tell you it isn't stock. I don't think they're capable of fixing things like that anyways, they just get entire assemblies and swap them out.

Maybe take it to intense motorsports in Barrie? They are close to borden but I have never been there to vouch for them. They work on and race Nissans from what i here.

Otherwise I would go Vuk at AMS in Mississauga.

Do not go back to that stealership...

I would recommend taking your z to Turbo Tech. Edward works on z's & g's, and can easily repair the diff for you. He has installed several diff's including his own.

Intense Motorsports has some bad reviews...

Pretty much all of their cars has blown engine down the road... Except Rich's...
Seems like everything Intense touches will have problems and blow engines.
