Yes. And to say this is "normal", or is due to the drive by wire, or some other reason other that NISSAN's SHITTY ECU programming is patently FALSE. My Twin Turbo Porsche has drive by wire, and does not suffer from any gas pedal delay due to heat soak or otherwise. My Chevy Silverado does not have drive by wire, and it does not does not suffer from gas pedal delay.

You nailed it Phaddi...its up to the private owner to fix a problem that NISSAN should have addressed 3 years ago. That's what I will do, as I do love the car otherwise...its just a shame Nissan continues to offer a car that is 95% done (as witnessed when Car & Driver stuffed a NISMO into the wall during a track day shootout due to inadequate brake pads...that is inexcusable for a performance car).

Agreed. Couple this with people stating it gets worse with oil temp and I think you've got an ECU that overcompensates when it comes to percieving damage to the powertrain due to high oil temps.

well it is what it is I suppose...I knew about the lack of oil cooler before purchasing the vehicle (still went ahead and purchased it), and figured if needed i'll install one. Most reviews I watched mentioned it, and Nissan even included coolers on some Zs they had leant for review. At some point I was in denial because I dont track my car, but after a couple mods and a bit of spirited driving (or 5-10min of trafic), I realized its a must. There may be other issues with the ecu/drive by wire/stock tune, but im just gonna keep it simple and get this cooler asap. Once its installed and the uprev tune is on i'll report back.
