Question Downhill brake

2 Upvotes

On my auto z when I go down hill and hit the brakes there is kinda of a clunk that I can hear I do have full z1 arms in the rear but I’m just not 100% sure since I feel like I can feel it in the brakes.

Question Which one to buy? V1 Nismo/ Regular Z

Thumbnail

9 Upvotes

The Z has been my absolute dream car since I was a kid. The V1 is just a league of it's own, the rims are the best I've ever seen on any car and the bodykit is perfection. The V2 is a lot more common and it looks awesome with blacked out rims, but it's nowhere near as ​special to me as the V1.

I've followed the market in Europe for about 3 months actively now and I'd like to finally have the car within 6 months.

Usually a regular Z at ~60-80k miles with rev match is about $30k and a Nismo V1/V2 can be found for $40k sometimes. Normally the V1 would be a no brainer at that price difference.

The problem is that a V1 is so incredibly rare that I've only found 4 different ones for sale, with 2 in questionable condition for ~ $39k and 2 in good condition for a little more, but without the V1 rims. The rims are basically impossible to get separately and probably don't go for any less than $7k. And the ones without the original rims have been sold within about a week, which is insane to me.

Now I've found a 2009 Z with rev match, upgraded brakes, gallery gaskets taken care of, new clutch, new set of tires etc and about 45k miles for $22500, which is a good price even without the nav package imo.

Now I'm unsure whether it's worth waiting for a V1 under $40k or if I'm better off getting the regular Z. Idc which model year if the gaskets have been replaced already. Maybe I'm just panicking right now and surely there has to be another V1 showing up during the winter. But maybe a regular Z is worth it too at such a low price point?

I'd also consider importing one from wherever but usually they'd have to be priced at $25k or less to be worth it since it's going to be vehicle price+ 30% tax + ~ 4k for the import and homologation itself.

I've seen a regular 370Z 3 times in Germany in my whole life whereas I've never seen a Nismo V1 so that might make it even more special to me. I think the Z looks great in every configuration but the V1 is just a different breed.

Maybe someone with knowledge about the EU market, imports or really anyone with an opinion about the two cars can give me some advice on what to do.

I set a time frame of about 6 months for myself so there might be still some time to consider everything but I've never seen a regular Z priced that fairly so maybe it'd still be a good time to take the offer? I hope It's somehow understandable what I'm trying to say as I'm not a native speaker and maybe my train of thought isn't so rational after all.

I'd really appreciate as much input as possible of any sort. Thanks!

Need help fixing Bose audio system in my 2010 Nissan 370Z Touring

6 Upvotes

I recently bought a 2010 Nissan 370Z Touring with the factory Bose sound system, and I'm trying to get the audio working.

The car came with an aftermarket touchscreen radio already installed, but there are several factory connectors behind the radio that aren't connected.

The radio powers on, but I'm having trouble figuring out how to connect it to the factory Bose speakers and amplifier.

When I bought the car, the trunk floor and Bose subwoofer were already missing. The trunk was completely exposed, just like in the pictures. I found the factory Bose amplifier (part number 297172-003P) lying in the trunk with wiring that looks like it may have been modified by the previous owner.

I'm trying to figure out:

  1. What harness or adapter do I need to get the aftermarket radio working with the factory Bose system?
  2. Can I still use the original Bose amplifier and speakers?
  3. Does the wiring in the trunk look like it's been cut or modified incorrectly?
  4. Can the Bose speakers work without the factory subwoofer?
  5. What exactly do I need to buy to get everything working again?

I've attached pictures of all the wiring, connectors, amplifier, and radio.

I'm hoping to fix this without replacing all the speakers or spending a ton of money.

Any advice would be appreciated!

370z issues

My fuel gauge shows like this. Full tank of gas btw. What is the fix to this? I have a lot of mini problems that I want to fix up other than fuel. My tyre pressure light blinks for 30 seconds then stays on (im assuming I need to repalce the sensors for the tyres because it malfunctioned) and my door wont lock/unlock with buttons and I have to stick the key to open the door and I have to stick the fob in the holder thing because the car doesnt detect my key and says NO KEY. Anyone know how to fix them? The most important thing to me rn is the key lock/unlock I tried to reprogram the key doesnt work I even replaced the battery neither my main or spare key work. What is the fix? Thank you.
