Nissan 370Z Forum  

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

this seemed like a good place to drop MIATA DOORS

Don't forget the 5.0 and BRZ!!! We can get EVERYTHING in this thread!!!!




On the topic at hand, from my experience the Z is pretty dead under 2500 rpms. If you want the car to respond quickly off the line, you NEED those revs which are just not going to be there without a more agressive launch.
