The Nissan 370Z was a car that never existed on my radar. I always thought of them as car for idiot rich boys. But, after driving this z-car around, i feel that they're alright. But they're still kind of "American-japenjese cars" and this one is a Nismo Stillen. Steve Millen was a primient rally and Imsa race car driver and this has one of his kits.

Remember kids, USA only.
Is the giveaway US only? or Canada as well
All modern cars, including the 370z, have an arrow on the gas gauge telling you which side the fuel door is located. Also, the three gauges and their position are a nod to the original Z cars. Same gauges in the same location in that order.
Fun fact, a 2006 Chevy suburban does not have the arrow on the gas gauge. I remember that every time I need to fuel and forget which side it's on
@@cheezeball2517 interesting wrinkle. The Escalade has it, but gm skipped this on the Yukon and suburban.
Yeah I love that about all the Z's. What's funny is that the lap timer is on the dash display instead of being built-in to the clock like in my 280ZX.
@@ELOFTW do you have the digital clock? My 1980 has the analog (not working) clock.
@@cheezeball2517 haha yeah my 2005 Silverado also doesn't have it
When I worked at Jimmy Johns 10 years ago, some spoiled punk 19 year old kid delivered sandwiches in a 350z. That's my experience with Z cars.
Were they prone to doing burnouts too leaving the shop
@@CaptainBlitzyes actually
Nice
I do get jealous when I see some young punk with an awesome car that I will never be able to buy. So I can like the car, and dislike the owner. That's why I despise Corvette. It was the working man's sports car. No anymore. Mustang GT now I guess.😊

My mum has a stillen 1998 Nissan Primera, it's no.21 of 25 made
There is a tiny arrow on the gas gauge next to the pump symbol that points to the side that the filler cap is on
Right I thought that was common knowledge 😂
Yeah every car has that haha
Maybe now, but not that long ago some didn't. Generally most Asian cars will be on the left side, because they are primarily right hand drive. European cars are on the right, and American cars don't have a default.
& stop using the shifter as a hand rest!
No there isn't.
You're making that up.
Today no one cares... in 10 years we're gonna be really mad we didn't buy these cars when they were cheap

The odds of...
Never mind
At the risk of being called a nerd:
1: the three gauges in the middle are supposed to be a callback to the three gauges in the original
2: there’s an arrow next to the gas pump icon on the dash that tells you which side the filler is on
3: Z car naming convention is based on engine size, so the new Z would be a 300z because it’s a 3 liter, not a 400z which would imply a 4 liter engine. Presumably, they chose to omit the number this time because it would seem odd in terms of progression to go 240,260,280,300,300,350,370,300.
At the risk of being called a nerd:
you forgot the s130
The "400z" does have 400hp so at least the number comes from somewhere
I’ve been watching this channel since the very beginning. I understand the way RUclips works now, vs how it worked then. I understand the way your videos have changed, and how it’s happened. I don’t blame you at all. Adapt, or die. I get it, your goals, and the way you’re going about it.
Man, do I miss the Dodge Avenger style videos. They were fast, short, unapologetic, and hilariously brutal, but still intelligent. I had to keep going back 10 to 20 seconds to catch the joke I missed, because I was still laughing at the previous one. Pausing a split second frame to catch a dirty written joke, and rewinding yet again to get the punchline to the joke I missed the second time because I didn’t catch the context, or the reference. I still watch most of the videos you put out, but not everything, and not the minute it comes out like I used to. Keep doing what you’re doing, but know that I’m still here to catch a glimpse of where you started. Brevity is still the soul of wit.
I had a 370z for a few years
Honestly the was a fantastic car
I still have mine. Not a nismo but I have the big brakes and a 6 speed manual gearbox. It's been 10 years. Don't plan on selling it any time soon. Unless I can find a new Z, this car is irreplaceable.

Life Hack: Most modern cars tell you what side the gas fill up is on. Look at the little gas logo on the gauge cluster. There will be a small arrow to left or the right. That's where you fill up!
Gauge pods were a thing in all Z's. Voltage seemed useless to me also until my old battery destroyed my alternator because it was doing overtime. Then I started to pay attention.
Yep. I love Volt gauges.
I wish the 370Z had an oil pressure gauge because the gallery gaskets are known to fail and low pressure is a warning sign but if you wait for the light to come on, it's too late. I was lucky enough to check it with a service gauge in time so I had them replaced with upgraded gaskets.
@@FlameOnTheBeat Only 2009-2012 inclusive. 2013 & beyond have the upgraded gaskets. Bulletproof.

Let's hope he was better at building cars than he was at making music.
That headliner though... haha
I own a 370z nismo (no tacky mods though). I absolutely love it, it's an old school drivers car.
However, I live in the UK and the car makes a lot more sense here than it would in th US. We dont have a lot of corvettes or camaros or American cars in general. Our roads are smaller and dont suit them.
If you want a performance sports car, your options are basically; BMW, jaguar and porsche and all are way more expensive.
These are the sort of cars what we will wish were still around in 10-15 years.
Yeah I guess, being in the US, we can’t relate because there’s plenty of entry level priced options for horsepower. Hell you can get a WS6 trans am for under 15k with almost 500hp on marketplace fairly easily. Let alone a scat pack, S550 GT, SS or ZL1 Camaro, or even maybe a K swapped civic, there’s always affordable options to go fast. However, more Americans then you think really care about handling. There are more mountain roads and race tracks in this country then you’d think. That’s where the Z came in. But A LOT are tacky like this one and those god awful red headlight housings.
Did someone put a Rolls style twinkly headliner in that ?
Yes they did.
Dear lord that roof lining 😂
Right? Lol
The three gauge pods on the dash have been in all the z cars since the 240. That's keeping the interior features over time. Also, did you know that the gas gauge shows what side the fuel door is on? There's an arrow next to the little gas pump graphic
This is exactly what I came in to say. The gauges weren't fanboi, they were historic.
@@float6969 I just wish they would have simply included the important readouts - voltage, temp, oil pressure. And make them real gauges, not the typical fake ones we have these days - I want to know the precise data, not just "hot"
@@LemonHolidayProd Agreed. I'm a Nissan fan, but they're terrible about missing the mark. The extra gauges in the Z34 is a perfect example.
As a former 280z owner, thank you for making this point.
I have a 2003 350Z (stock with 217k on the clock). This was a VERY entertaining video to watch, and gave me ideas for upgrades. X car gets a lot of bad rep from “Altima energy” but I do love them so
Stillen was the man. Extremely dedicated to dead platforms 😂
Just spotted this car driving on SR61 near Pottsville!
I had a 2009 370Z Touring Sport for 7 years and loved it! I only did a few bolt on mods like Z1 intake, Z1 oil cooler and Fast Intentions catback. Taught myself how to drive stick on it. Even drove it in the snow on Blizzaks for a few winters. Eventually, daily driving a manual sports car that averages 20 mpg, uses premium gas, and was getting up there in miles (138k) got exhausting so I sold it for a Bolt EV. Kinda regret selling it and would've been nice to have both cars but can't afford having 2 cars at the same time right now.
Glad you did another review of one without doing a weird KPAX-like voice.

Trick for knowing which side the gas door is is to look at which direction the arrow is pointing next to the gas icon. I learned this just a few months ago despite being a "car guy" for over a decade lol.

Regular makes Monday special ❤!! Thanks bro!
Clean 350z's go for like $15k now, this country is done for
It's a tragedy.
Worth every penny haha
I know many will disagree with me but from what I've seen over the years, the 350/370z is that stepping stone car between your college ricer and your Corvette/GTR.
Your mid to late 20s, you're finally starting to make money. You've outgrown your slammed and stickerbombed Civic Si/Scion tC/NA Miata/etc. The GTI is too plain. The BRZ doesn't have any power. Can't find a Focus ST that isn't clapped. The blown engine horror stories make the WRX a hard sell. You wouldn't be caught dead in a V6 muscle car.
In comes the 370z. It's fun to drive, has plenty of power, sleek looks, easily miles ahead of what you had before. Time goes by, you have some fun but you want to go faster. You do some research, realize the tuning potential isn't great without forced induction. Install intake and exhaust, you feel the placebo effect but you're still losing stoplight races and now you're the butt of all trumpet jokes.
You're now in your 30s, just got a promotion, student loans are paid off, and you've somehow dodged the stork. Time to pick a side between the Coyote and LS clan, or hope to find a gently used GTR for a good price. Your aspirations are far beyond the practical capability of the Z, so you move on and the Z does too, likely to be slammed into a pole by some wannabe drifter while sporting eBay coilovers and loose timing chain.
You described me perfectly, '03 miata first, '16 370z second, just traded the z for a '15 c7 corvette lol
I make barely 100k per year at 33, my household combined income is $160,000 and a GTR or LS is NOWHERE near in my budget… if you have a mortgage (mine is $1900 per month) and have all the normal amenities like AC, occasional eating out, insurance, you’ll be happy to end up with a $35,000 car.

Me too, it's in my skull
I got to watch one of these at an autocross event that I went to. the supercharger sounds insane from the outside of the car when it's coming at you. Like a herd of tornados shoving air into the engine.
Id like to say a vq motor would do better with a turbo setup but without reinforcement no kind of boost will work. Ask me how know 😢
What is your story?
@@6lemans10 12' z. + 10 psi out smallish turbo = shattered piston and broken heart.
I love Stillen's products. I have a Stillen Gen2 catback I think it's called for my G35 sedan, and not only do I think so but pretty much everyone that's heard it thinks it's the best sounding VQ they've experienced due to that exhaust. It's got an x-pipe with some elaborate bends that converge into a single twin tip muffler, it honestly sounds like an n/a R35. No Tomei Trombones or ISR ear bleeds here.
I would love to get the Stillen supercharger, but last I looked into it the kit was close to 10k, and I would assume I'd probably blow up the engine without upgraded internals... which is probably another 10k. I'm pretty happy with where I'm at now, aside from the cats I have every breather mod from the head and up; Motordyne lower plenum, Motordyne plenum spacer, polished upper intake plenum, NWP throttle body spacer w/ larger diameter Hitachi throttle body, a nice carbon Evo R warm air intake. Stock exhaust manifolds & cats though, nobody makes a set of headers that will fit awd. Maybe in the future I can get one of my fabricator acquaintances to make me a custom set... can't get rid of the cats though.
14:36 Dunno about the 370, but the first time I had to fill up my G35 I couldn't find the fuel door release either, really threw me for a loop until I realized it didn't have one and you just manually open it.

As a Z owner, I can confirm that every word in this video is accurate.
That Brent Chrysler bit was great
STILLEN 370Z? rare rare rare rare rare rare
Having lived in Philadelphia I loved the vine street expressway reference
Had a 370z, now have a C6 Z51 vette. Sure, I can see the Z having better handling than a base vette, but my old 370 didn't hold a candle to a Z51 vette in the corners. The 370 definitely had the better steering, but the vette has way more grip and stays flatter in the turns.
I still love these things.
Nismo or Jizzmo. That is the question.
Oh man, I had a 1996 300 with stillen and nismo from the factory. It was 71 of 300 for whatever that meant. Lemme tell ya that thing was , made for a road up in the autobahns not the 5 freeway in Calif.
But my experience of cali freeways is even the cops speed.
@@Low760 I understand but I'm 2 dark to do all that, literally been beat once, has it took from me more then 2wice .lol. By the police of course !!!
The lights in the headliner are hilarious and on point for a 370 🤣
You can know what side you put gas in by the arrow by the gas pump icon on the gauge. My Leaf had it pointed forward because you charge it from the front,
Doesn't the gas gauge have an arrow on it for what side the fill port is on?
This is a much better giveaway video.
I love the 370z and all generations of Z car. I've owned 5 Zs, including a 370. I have a 2024 Z Performance 6-speed now, and it's a lot of fun.

About the rev matching thing, I had a 1998 GTi VR6 drivers edition that did that under heavy braking! It was a throttle cable car but still had electronics on the throttle body. It was weird. If you ever drive one, please document that weird feature, and also the weird MK3 era programmable intermittent wiper relay. and the stupid air powered door locks.
The arrow next to the gas symbol on your dash shows what side the gas tank is on
Hey, on your fuel gauges there should be an arrow pointing to the side that your gas fill is on

first time entering for one of these, i drive my best friend's g35 coupe every now and then and i love that car, been wanting my own vq lately hopefully i could win this one, good luck to everyone !
Did you know that the fuel filler door location is a reference to the original Z cars' arrow by the gas pump symbol showing where the three center gauges are?
"My house has a mini split" 😂
15:00
look at the gas gauge. usually the side that the nozzle is on in the image is where the gas tank is.
I feel like NISMO should've been more than it was
If it helps your perspective, it had good upgraded suspension, better rays wheels, wider tires, expensive recaro seats, a bit more hp, more expensive aero package, better brakes, better manual fluid requirement, lower stance than stock, upgraded interior materials, better stock exhaust system, and different badging, of course. I might have missed some, but that’s quite a lot of upgrades. Suspension and bigger tires, wheel package, being the best parts.
Do you guys not see the bajillion comments already starting the gauge pods and fuel arrow tips?

@@StrawB0ss Better?
@@PrydeWater901 I love my truck but but I wouldn't say that quirk makes it better.
It tells you what side the filler is on in the fuel gauge. Just look at the little triangle next to the picture of the gas pump. That's pointing to the correct side.
theres a triangle arrow next to the gas icon on the gauge, it points to where the gas tank filler cap is. it's on ALL cars. surprising you dont know...
the gas tank side is on the gas indicator, it'll have a little arrow to the left or right of the gas symbol. just rented a car and used it
The little arrow next to the gas pump on your gas gauge tells what side the fuel filler is on. The 370Z has that.

Also, love the $50 eBay roll on roof lip "spoiler"
The arrow on the gas gauge tells you what side the filler neck is on.
Protip: look at the gas gauge and see which way the arrow is pointing on every modern car to see which side the fill is on
14:13 Look at your gas gauge. See the gas pump icon? See that arrow beside it? The arrow tells you which side your gas goes.
This is your daily "you can't unsee it" fact.
Barring the difficulty of finding it, I live by the "little gas-pump/arrow" thing on the instrument cluster. And as far as finding the door release... you have a PHONE my guy... google that shit.
