Do I HATE Anything About My Nismo 370Z? 

I wish I had these problems

Why don't you just put your lunchbox on your passenger seat to avoid opening the boot 4 times a day?

A RU-vidr that actually addresses nuisance and concerns about the car. Much respect. Other RU-vidrs be talking about how they hate the curb rash they got on their rims and blah blah blah.

Video starts at 2:20, all the rest is him rambling....get to the point dude smh 🤦🏽‍♂️

Sound deadening, stereo upgrade, and sport touring is what you will love.

As a Nismo 350Z owner there is what's called the 4 penny trick for that trunk problem lol. you can twist those "rubber things with springs in them" to where they can come off, take the spring out of the rubber part and drop 2 pennies in each one which will put more tension on the spring so that whenever you pop the trunk you won't have to hit the button twice. If the problem continues drop an extra penny in each of them and you should be golden as I've had to actually use 6 pennies total but all my other Z friends have only needed to use 4 total.

For the trunk you can do one of three things 1. Press the button and open it fast 2. Press and hold the button 3. Put a penny where the trunk adjusters go when the hatch and close and use it as normal Kinda strange but works for me

Take off the poppers from the hatch. Put 2-3 pennies in the pieces, reinstall and should now pop open. If you need for on this send me a message.

for the trunk issue, you can take off those hatch bump springs and put some washers on the inside of it and it will help the issue over all so it pops up when it's cold too

I completely agree with the fake noise thing. . . But I'm just going to say from a mechanic standpoint it's going to be very hard to reduce road noise with a suspension that tight. . . Obviously they could add insulation but Japanese companies don't like adding weight

The first issue is a safety feature that keeps your trunk lid from popping open while driving, in the event that you accidentally open it while moving. My 2013 FoST does something similar, and all I have to do is hit the button, push down, and then open it.

Here's a crazy idea! Put the lunchbox in the front seat on the floor! I know it's complicated! But it works!

That trunk issue has been a problem sense 2003. To fix it take the black rubber piece off and put a few pennies in on each side and that should do the trick.

The trunk issue is super common. I worked for Nissan for quite some time, the latch gets a little sticky, just go see the dealer! They'll take care of it.

I own a 370z and I can say one of the things that do bug me a lot is how the transmission (manual) makes a little grinding noise. Yes this is Normal for all Z’s. But I look pass that and I enjoy the car a lot! It’s one of my favorite cars I ever driven! I wouldn’t trade it for anything! Or less there’s a manual z than yeah of course 🤣🤣🤣 but another thing that I might add is that, if your looking for a z and want blue tooth, get a sports or nismo model. Or less your planning on building it from the ground up (which is what I’m doing) but aside from that. It’s a very reliable car and very unique one :) a quick FYI tho if your looking for your first manual. I highly recommend getting a civic or a mustang first before this one. The clutch in it is very weird to get use to and learn how to drive, I made that mistake but it was a learning experience for me and I enjoyed it! But just don’t get discouraged by it tho. If you have the money to get one, get it and have a buddy or parents drive it to a empty parking lot and learn how to atlease get it going, that’s how learned and it will frustrate you but it’s worth it!

It is package that attracts drivers that want to go fast not only in a straight line the wheels are bigger wider than most sport cars.

Ty for posting this. I've wanted the Nismo for a long time but I absolutely do not like stiff rides. My folks have a huge truck and we've driven it a few times and you feel every bump and after awile it becomes uncomfortable. Very good to know as we do a lot of long distance driving.

Trunk issue is identical on 370z Touring... I'm thinking it's a safety feature (trunk says, "are you sure you want me open bro"). Great video! Great perspectives! I'm wondering if you get the water drainage after going to the car wash then opening the infamous "trunk" on a sports car? I agree the interior Hollywood engine noise... no bueno, non cool feature. The body styling is very sleek and aggressive. $1 for $1 nothing can touch the performance in my 370Z Touring... can only drool about what the NISMO can dishout. We can help with your t-shirts printing and distribution oevae.com "we been doing this!" NO MIN. ORDERS. You have a nice logo too! Again, great video and the trunk latch is extraordinarily pooy!

Dude, talk less. You can do this whole video is 1min

The first problem is easy fix just old springs in those rubber bumpers just get new ones or you can even put a couple coins so they push harder

You should try to change your trunk struts. They're probably just fated and your trunk being a bit heavier doesn't help.

Love how the car looks, always been a fan of the nismo 370Z

This & the brz are the only affordable Japanese coupes left. It’s crazy. The list doesn’t get much longer if you include domestic cars and 2 door roadsters.

The 350 had the same problem with the trunk. A solution was to put some coins inside those rubber boots. Maybe replacing the springs with heavier springs if possible?

There is a 1 pound weight in the hatch, under the interior plastic trim, you can remove. That garbage Bose system is the only one with the road noise feature. Most comfortable seats I have ever sat in, seek them to me. Throse are sway bars homie.

You can adjust the trunk latch to fix the problem. Plenty of DIY instructions for this issue on the forums. I fixed mine in 10min.

No its not the extra weight... Hold slight pressure under the lip and it will pop up when u hold the button

my biggest complaint about mine was the exhaust note. However a set of short tails fixed that problem nicely

Bought a new 2020 Sport-Touring with the dark Mettalic Blue Nice CAR

I own a 2013 Nismo z and it also has the stupid trunk problem, so annoying. The problem is my only complaint. I agree that the suspension is very stiff, but I absolutely love the response. If you don't like stiff cars, don't get the Nismo.

So from what i heard that the nismos come with this plastic thing on the suspensions to prevent some shit happening when it is being transported from the factory might want to check the suspension for some plastic trim that are stuck onto the springs

Paid 39k for a leftover 16 nismo. I really like the car but I worry about the longevity of the alcantara. I don't think it will hold up to years of use. I have the trunk problem on and off as well.

You can get a heavier shock for your hatch just about anywhere. that should do the trick.

Maybe you need new lift supports to fix the annoying trunk issue.

I think most hatchback trunk lids have to be pushed twice. My old 99 Camaro is like that, because imagine if you hit the trunk unlock on accident while driving?

1.) easy fix with pennies (literally) just look it up. They go inside the rubber stub you were playing with. 2.) yeaaaah.... it does suck... 3.) what!? Previous guy is nuts. Love these seats. I could road trip those seats easier than my leather stuffed ‘16 Fusion seats... 4.) ...it’s a sports car.... ‘nuff said. 5.) See #5.

Get z1 hatch struts. Changed my fucking life.

Some z's have weights in the hatch to make it easier to drop close. you can remove it and fix the hatch not opening.

I'm interested in a tshirt

I'm loving the white pearl color on your car

I have a 2016 370z touring, and it doesn't have all the electronic gizmo's that the sport models have or the Nizmo for that matter. For another $6k ...(comparison of a 2017 sport to touring to mismo) the only difference of a Nismo and mine is: A better sound system, adjustable suspension and some cosmetic lines...that's it. Not worth another $6k just for a couple more speakers, plastic body molding..and the adjustable suspension...( I mean really, are you going to track your car..and systematically adjust your suspension over and over again...just to adjust it again so you can somewhat enjoy the ride back home? Unless you trailer it..but then what would be the point of having a Nismo, when you could of gotten a Touring model that will clearly, in a performance standing.. will "take" the nismo, Nismo is slower in accelleration.

How did you manage to buy this car and how much is it to maintain it in good condition?

+1 for tshirt idea

wait I'm playing catchup. How did you get a new Nismo Z for $35k? I've never seen them below $42k

I have a z...I've never seen a z were the trunk opened consistently..never

Are the recaro seats height adjustable? I’m like 5’5 and not sure if ima have a problem 😅

I need this car, I have a maxima on coils and I would bet this Z Nismo is smother of a ride than how my maxima is set up suspension wise after mods....too bad my car is so slow....

what a guy, I'm sure anyone with a base z (including myself) would have meet up with him and swapped my stock seats with his recaro seats and have him swapped his suspension with mine but instead of that he just goes back trades in his nismo 2016 for a older nismo and lose more money then he had to?

I used to work as a salesman at nissan nismo isn't what its cracked up to be nismo is just a trim no added horsepower or anything just purely cosmetic

Anybody know if the previous generation of the Nismo 370Z has engine sound coming from speakers? For some reason, that turns me off bigtime. Thanks

thats a really nice car.i wouldnt get it in any other color but white. just like that

Have you tried spraying Lithium grease on the trunk lock mechanism?

With the trunk, have you tried holding the button and opening (while holding the button)?

YOU VOICE IS REALLY GOOD GOOD LUCK

Lol the trunk messing with you. Na, I want a 370z GT technology pak. I'm after that V6 Ok cool vid All the Best Shaun of NYC

congratulation on hitting 25K !!!

I really don't like that it's only 2 seats :( I want to buy it but I drive with more than 2 people a lot of the times

Idk why your Z does #1 were your doors locked? My base model never does it always opens with one push. Just got my car about a month ago and a complete car noob I want to get a lower better suspension any suggestions?

My 2013 Nismo Z'S trunk does the same thing. I think is needs an adjustment by the dealership.

Isnt it just the rear things that hold you trunk up is not strong

The trunk thing is def a Z thing because I don't even have a 370 have an HR 350 and it does the exact same thing used to trip me out made me think something was wrong with the wiring for the trunk latch but it's just a fun thing nissan wanted to throw at you I guess .

T-shirt Yes!!

Am I the only one that thinks the mirrors get in the way?

Bruh my s13 is sitting on fortune auto coilovers with a solid bushing kit so im sure the Nismo's suspension is butter compared it it haha

But you know what I'd love more than this 370z? *knowledge*.

Lol he sold it because there was dmg to the rear. Trunk latches only to that from dmg and body shop not lining up the plat to the latch correctly or not replacing a bad part

You talk too much, just get to the point!

The exact same issues apply to my 350. At least Nissan's consistent?

Hey how tall are you? because I'm 6'1/2 and when I sat in one I was concerned about my leg bashing the steering wheel. Long story short is it comfortable as far as leg room?

I think your trunk is messed up. Mine opens up nicely

Im getting a used 2009 370z Nismo as my first. 9k-11k.

Hmmm I'll give this channel a chance looks interesting

My 350z has the same trunk problem

Starts at 2:20.

The space in that is lavish compared to an s2000 though lol

Dude.becuz its a nismo and its designed for track so the suspension is really gon be that way.

How much do you pay in insurance each month

I realize I haven't seen anymore 350z or 370z anymore lol

my 370 does that trunk thing like every other time i open it..kinda lame

5 Things I HATE about my lunch box

370z or mx5 please i want to buy soon

I hate that Nissan took away the t tops off 370z

One reason i hate about this car is I am not able to buy this car yet

The depreciation

Have to push the button 2 times, so fucking frustrating...

Got a 350z HR for it 🏎

Not sure if I want black or white nismo

1-5: not too well in performance and it's slow for the price you pay.

don't know why I'm watching this ..this guy doesn't know what to complain about

If you do not like it, why did you pay for it? I love my 370z. buy a nissan versa and you will be happy.

that trunk thing also happens on my 350Z

Nice video! Was seriously considering this car or the STi but decided on the STi instead. Not a day goes by wondering what if I got this instead lol

Not enough car for the money

Video starts at 2:20

I have one of these, and it actually looks even better in reality. I think it is one of the best looking sports car ever, so far.

Can You Disable The Fake Noise?

So I LITERALLY just bought this car in black today *squeals of manical glee* and my car doesn't have that latch issue with the trunk that you demonstrated. Maybe it's a defective part worth looking into?

My 350z has the same trunk issue

Too much flexing you should be grateful that you at least have a nice car where there are people that with even a Honda Civic are happy Just Saying Btw nice vid

Why not just put your lunch box in the passenger seat ? Problem solved
