i would really like to know if anyone has taken a long trip in their 350z.
i plan to take the cameron highlands this weekend, and would like to know if the car causes any problems or breakdowns. ive never taken my car out for more than an hour of constant driving. would really like to know if the engine heats up or anything. the ride would take me approx 2.5hours. any info would be great. and anything i should check before taking it out.
and if anyone has been up to cameron highlands, is there alot of speed bumps? thank you again.

hi bro..

so far i've used my z33 to go to kuantan n it took me 1 n half hr to reach kuantan from gombak toll..and i'm also used my z33 to go back to my village at taiping...also took me up to 1 n half hr to reach my village from sg. buloh toll..both average speed at 190kmh~210kmh..once tried at 260kmh max so far..:biggrin:

just my advice..if u already remove speedcut 180kmh...make sure u always watch at the speedometer bcoz u will not realize dat u already go more than 200kmh...:driver:

hahaha. nice to hear. but the car can last 1.5 hours going at 190 constant?
im honestly not sure if my speed cut has been taken out or not. because i took it once, and it didnt stop at 180km/h it kept going, and i didnt feel like a limiter was kicking in. but i didnt check the digital one. il let you know how my trip goes this weekend then. thanks for the advice. got low profile tires tho, its so noisy and you can feel the bumps on the roads. might suck for long distance.

Applejuice, the factory limit is actually at 188km/h. I just had my long journey of 360km few hours ago with the speed limit still intact. The car seems to do fine stock even when pushed to the max at Sepang.

Btw, Lord, got plans go Sepang? Several Z members went there last track day (Feb 1st.) I wanna see your Z there! :biggrin:

as in the stock 350z sign at the back of the car when you buy it in USA or UK. instead of the word fairladyz.

Hey guys,

Gan here. I believe we've met during the last gathering. Quick Question. Anyone knows what is Tan's (Z '06 Manual/reg:69) contact number? It'll be great if someone could PM me.

Lord1700: You drive the Fabulous kitted Z right?? Still remember me? When are we gonna do a small gathering nearby our neighbourhood? I think there is quite a number of Zs staying around our area.

convict: White Z? Let me know if my guess is accurate.

Cheers~
