Why does first gear in every other car feel and seem faster than the Z?

AK370Z

I will disagree with you. First gear in Z seems pretty solid to me. However, Z transmission(350z) has always been problematic but so far I have no problem in my 09 Z (rolling into 44,000 miles). Try to find the perfect launch RPM (assuming it's manual transmission) and you WILL be able to launch it pretty hard. Keep practicing. And sorry we do not allow any street racing post in our forum hence I modified your post.

I pretty much can light up 1st gear at will so think it's ok. Are you sure you aren't activating traction control?
