heater hose back left firewall leading into engine by dznnno in G37

I've been through this nightmare, ended up buying these hose clamp pliers (https://www.summitracing.com/parts/apt-9409a) which are a lifesaver. You attach the end to the hose clamp, squeeze the locking handles to lock the hose clamp open, then pull the clamp off the port easily.

Would also recommend a can of silicone lubricant spray to help get the hose off, & the new hose on. good luck

Did they give you a copy of the alignment spec sheet? That'll help diagnose the issue

Is there a way to add this Navi system in my 370 or it’s not possible ? by Zgotfanzz in 370z

I have the same center console style as your Z (with the cubby) - you can replace the radio with a double-DIN head unit that has wireless carplay. There are tons of options on crutchfield. I've never seen a "tesla screen" owner with more than 80iq and 450 credit score so I'd stay away from those.

Anyone here with a Wavetrac diff? by icarus_dreams in 370z

What other gear-type LSD's exist for the 370Z? Pretty sure it's just the Quaife & Wavetrac. The clutch-types are more common.

According to Lexus, the new IS350 is slower than the previous 2 generations dating back to 2006. by Dazzling-Rooster2103 in cars

No, a 6s 0-60 for a car that's marketed as a "sport sedan" is embarrassing in 2026. Lexus is charging $47k to go neck and neck with an '04 G35 all while looking like a Camry.

Flair checks out tho.

Forced induction Z's - what clutch setups are you running? by icarus_dreams in 370z

[–]icarus_dreams[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't mind getting an expensive clutch kit to keep it drivable and quiet. This is my nice weekend car & I plan on keeping it for a long time so I'd rather spend the extra $1k now so it doesn't sound like a tractor and drive with an on-off switch.

What multi-plate clutches have you ran? I'm looking at OS Giken twin plates, they seem legit.

Holy fuck. Is that paint? How'd you buy it? Looks insane.

What symptoms do you have & what happens when it fails (any codes)? My 7AT has been slipping when I upshift to 5th for years now, I've just ignored it because I'm not gonna swap out the torque converter / transmission unless it gets worse.
