Hey everyone I am new and I just got a 2004 350z! I love this car! It has 111,000 miles and i bought it for 8gs. Everything is like new, new brakes, clutch, summer tires, and headlights. I have one little problem tho :/ I cant back up into my garage! when I put it in reverse and start to back up my car stalls because I have a big slope leading up to my garage. Does anyone have any solution to this? Please and thank you.

Just floor it, you'll get it up there.

 

Well this is my first time driving stick, and reverse is a pain when going up a slope. Have any tips? I cant floor it cause then I will fly out the other side of my garage

 

I was kidding....just practice man. There's no real tips to it. Actually here's 1, don't hit any walls. I would advice practicing on a different kind of car, maybe a beater or a less powerful car. Z's can really get away from you if you don't know what you're doing.

 

Pull the e-brake (keep the button pressed so it doesn't lock). Then release once you start moving.

 

Yes, use the e-brake until you figure out how to heel-toe(I use sides of my foot in my z since pedals are close together)

 

thanks for quick reply! Will test everything out later. Also isn't heel-toe bad for the transmission?

 

Once you get the hang of it,whatever you do,don't install a front lip
on your Z.

 

How about you pull straight into the garage until you get better at the clutch to ensure you don't back through the other end of the garage while toasting your clutch. . .

 

don't back into your garage, go front bumper first. Solution

 

 

Yay another kid with a sub $10k car.

 

Granny shifting not double clutching like you should have been...

 

That'll just make him slide into a pole before Thanksgiving.
