NISMO 370Z manual ~ NZ new 2019 (Hamilton Nissan)

As a devoted Z owner who has over the years owned a 280Z, 300Z and 370Z, this last Z incarnation, my NISMO 370Z has been a treasured jewel, colloquially referred to as the 'Batmobile' . It belongs in the hands of a Z devotee who will know exactly how to treat it. 'The Batmobile' has had only ONE ver...

Ashburton, Canterbury

Am in the process of relocating to Ashvegas.
Any recommendations for servicing / tuning of my Batmobil, a NZ new, 2019 Nismo 370Z?
Settling in May and interested to catch-up with some other Z devotees.

Re: gear stick buzz vibration (resonant harmonic) at specific rpm

Thank you for your responses. Appreciated. Apparently nothing to worry about and considered normal by the engineering gurus at Nissan. The web suggests that the manual gear box is infamous for odd harmonics. I removed the Nissan plastic gear knob and replaced it with a beautiful 700g stainless steel...

gear stick buzz vibration (resonant harmonic) at specific rpm

Interesting specific mild buzz vibration in the gear shift knob, with the same note frequency as tapping the knob. It seems like a stray resonant harmonic. Knob not loose. It may be silenced by lightly resting hand on gear knob. Only occurs at a specific rpm somewhere between 2000 - 3000 and when tr...

Helpful comments one and all, thanks again. They've really helped the focus.

New guy here in Mosgiel, sayin' hello

Great to find this forum on Z's! After taking my first ride down a US Freeway in Florida at 125mph in a 260Z at 1am in the morning in the late eighties, I've been hooked. Over the years I've manage to own a 280, 300 and today, a 370Z (2012 NZ). If anyone would offer some tyre advice I'd appreciate i...
