Cool little things..

[Ghut300zx]

Just wanted to start a thread for those cool/random little things about our cars.

for example some ones i know of are...

headlight adjustment tools are hidden under covers behind seats
holding the lock and unlock buttons will toggle horn chirp (i cant get it to work)
wheels are directional
if you slowly pull the high-beam lever back you can turn on only one light


add yours!!!

Speaking of cool little things... any idea what's with that pump/actuator/vaccuum looking device that's behind the passenger seat hidden under the false panel?

[Ghut300zx]

im just guessing but id say abs. but not sure

stock spare tire only held air for a week for me.
T-bar can support ALOT of weight... i (230lbs) and my friend (180lbs) were chillin on top listening to music and i'd change the song with my foot haha

Windshield washer fluid resivoir is in the driver side rear fender.
Cockpit/plane like, set up around the driver. (Gotta love it)

actually, the Diablo has the same headlights as the Z. Lambo puts a small strip of carbon fiber on the top of the headlight to cover up the Nissan stamp.

The intake filter is in a secret compartment!

I always thought the aluminum jack and wheel chocks were kinda cool

I WANT MY CAR TO CHIRP WHENEVER I FREAKING LOCK IT WTF HOW DO I DO THISSS

[Ghut300zx]

^^^ idk if its real or not just a rumor i heard

[JDMZ32]

I like this thread! Never heard anything about that chirp.

We're sort of used to it and don't think of it, but everyone else seems to think it's amazing: Yes, all of the controls except the radio that are right by the driver's hand are in fact stock.

Our windshield washer fluid reservoir is located in the hatch on 1990-1993 models if I'm not mistaken.

The TTs have HICAS. Sure, we all know it and most of us don't like it, but it's certainly neat and unique to our cars.

Our third (middle) brake light is actually 4 lights

Yep. 94+ has it in passenger side front fender under the hood.

Actually, the Q45 had it too. Skyline as well. It still is pretty unique though.

[car nut]

Don't forget about the 240sx!

[Ace2cool]

Oh yeah. I forgot about that. Nissan needed a reason to boost the price up on something lol.

[GsaSlick]

This "chirp" thing makes no sense to me as we don't have lock and unlock buttons?

[GsaSlick]

Yep. 94+ has it in passenger side front fender under the hood.

My 94 has the reservoir in the rear actually.

[sodtoast]

[Ghut300zx]

[ffrpwner]

ummmmm....the lock and unlock buttons on ur keyless entry remote???

[Ghut300zx]

yes

[GsaSlick]

"keyless entry" is a phrase I have never associated with my car, nor will I likely ever.

Well, I didn't mean 100% unique :P.

Attention someone who knows: For the slicktop models, did it stay in the rear? If so, that's a very interesting fact. I noticed his is a slicktop.

my 90 has the reservoir in the engine bay

For you washer fluid? You sure? It may have been relocated.

[car nut]

^ I just realized you and I have very similar cars. Except mines black with a V8. When was your production date?

[Initial_Z]

ummmmm....the lock and unlock buttons on ur keyless entry remote???

Wait wat ? Z32 has factory keyless entry ?

My 90 TT reservoir is in the engine bay, near the left headlights to be exact.

[ffrpwner]

[LAKE ERIE Z32]

Ran to the garage ... You were right, I dont have the habit of reading the labels Where exactly "in the back" is the washer fluid ?
