Default New Nismo No. 599

Hello all,

I am the new owner of a 2007 Nismo. Just bought it a few weeks ago & stumbled upon these forums. =]

Welcome,


Here are a few tid bits you may find helpful.


A. 350z Nismo Owners Only FB group:


If you aren't already in the group, check out the 350z Nismo Only page on FB.
https://www.facebook.com/groups/532484266787116/

1.)Plaque # of your car (picture, etc.)
2.)Certificate of Authenticity from Nissan

-You must provide ONE of these two items to be approved and send a message to an admin.


B. Advice:

Make sure you check the springs in the front for the wheel spacers, there should be two/three on each side. (thread: https://my350z.com/forum/nismo-350z/6...ars-later.html)


I discovered that mine were never removed, just found them a few months ago. They'd been on the car for eight years. lol Make sure you keep them! If you don't have your Certificate of Authenticity (COA) send me a PM and I'll get you the POC to have it issued/reissued. Finally, once you're in the Nismo Owners group on FB, one of the other members makes these super neat Nismo Production posters, and a plethora of other Nismo items.


You'll notice some chatter while idling in neutral with the clutch released. It's 100% normal. It will go away (quiet down) once the clutch is pressed in. The tach can be a bit bouncy, between shifts, you'll get used to it.


C. Certificate of Authenticity for your Nismo:



1. Call 800-647-7261, select Option 7 for a human rep and ask for Leo at extension 457391.
2. If you can't get ahold of Leo, you may have luck using this case number "17409799." Let them know you're calling regarding obtaining your Certificate of Authenticity.
3. If they can't use that case number as a reference, just tell them you're calling regarding obtaining your Certificate of Authenticity.

Thanks for the info! Who do I message to get in on the group in facebook? I'll be sure to check to see if the spacers are in there. The past couple of weeks I've had the car the check engine light keeps popping on so I replaced the cam solenoid but it just popped on again today. Thinking I may have to go to the Nissan dealership to see if they can see what is going wrong.

Mesasge one of the admin and let them know you've sent a request, be sure you've included all the proper documentation. I would absolutely stop by Nissan and pay the $100 service fee to have them inspect the entire vehicle. I did just for the additional piece of mind.

I have scheduled some service for this coming Monday. Hopefully its nothing really bad as I have noticed the car running rough or anything.
This is probably a dumb question but how to I find the admins to the group?

Oh okay, I feel dumb now, haha

Anyways I'll be sure to do so. When I took my car in I guess one of the gaskets wasn't getting any oil pressure. Cost was around 1400 dollars. Sucks but now it feels like its running beautifully.

Uhhhhh, what?

Maybe you mean, "the engine wasn't getting oil pressure because of a gasket." (Or lack thereof.)

Either way, good to hear it's running good now.

Yeah that is probably it, haha. I am not very mechanically inclined. Thanks for the correction. =]

Sounds like the gallery gasket... same thing just happened to me. Super low oil pressure. Cost me about 1,200 to get done.
