Got a CF steering wheel from Vevor today and installed (also today..) $170 for it, honestly not bad! Noticed my alignment is a bit off after installing though, the wheel is definitely aligned properly on the splines, i checked 5 times before putting it back together

Long story short. Piecing this together with odds and ends I have around the workshop/hand me downs from various other rigs. No particular goal with this car. I have a LS swapped 350 for going fast and a bagged v36 sedan for going slow lol.

Picture one and two. Whiteline lowered springs. 25mm approx drop, paired up with extended wheel studs and GKTech 15mm hubcentric slip ons

Picture three/four stock height/no spacers for reference.

“Why didn’t you just do coilovers” because I had these laying around, and the coilovers I’d run cost about 5.5k.

Hello, I'm looking if anyone has fitted these OEM 18 rims on a nismo v2 without mods. I'm looking to buy a set for winter use and I just wanted some 18s that would clear the brakes without mods or spacers. I currently use a set from a 350z but they need spacers which is what I want to avoid. Thanks!

My VDC control light comes on, and the transmission starts acting weird. The car feels like it goes into neutral, RPM rises freely, but the car barely accelerates. When I let off the gas, RPM drops very quickly. Turning the car off and restarting temporarily fixes everything, but the problem comes back after around 10 km. No AT CHECK light.
Could this be low ATF, a wheel speed sensor, or a transmission issue? Has anyone experienced this?

Hello! Today was nuts with the wind and the neighbors bin came flying down my street. Here’s a photo of the damage. Called some shops they want a lot. I don’t need it to be perfect I’m modding this car anyways I don’t mind a little imperfection but Im considering a diy job . I’ve seen many styles of car dent repair kits. From your experience what would get the job done? Thanks!

Anybody running the Greddy Oil pan with the Oem oil warmer? How is fitment?

Hey everyone!

I have a 2013 Nissan 370Z Base with a 6-speed manual transmission.

I’ve noticed that sometimes when I shift from 4th to 5th gear, I hear a grinding/crunching noise or the shift feels rough. Other times, 5th gear shifts completely smoothly.

I’m just driving normally, not racing or shifting aggressively. Gears 1, 2, 3, 4, and 6 all seem to shift smoothly, and my clutch feels normal.

Has anyone experienced this issue with their 370Z?

I’m wondering if it could be a worn 5th-gear synchronizer, transmission fluid, or something else. How did you diagnose and fix yours? Was it an expensive repair, or did you have to replace the entire transmission?

Any advice or personal experience would be appreciated. Thanks!
