bye 350z, hello 370z!

SRM is a neat feature....definitely makes downshifting smoother. Seems like on lower/easy cruising upshifts it gives a little lurch with keeping the rpms up though.

I liked the mesh look too, esp changing from those old stock wheels...but those 350z stock pads dusted WAY too much making mesh a pain to clean! LOL

ah yea break dust FTL. If you have your car detailed, have them apply a wax or sealant to the wheels. it will make it much easier to clean the brake dust off. or you can do it yourself. not too hard to do on the 5 spoke rays. Although, appying sealant to a set of mesh wheels could make you want to shoot yourself!


You have to get used to SRM on the upshift. i find that if i shift as if it wasn't there, and apply a little bit of throttle at the engagement point of the clutch, its much smoother. theres a tendency with it to think 'ok at the right rpm, dump the clutch.... LERCH!' b/c the second you let out the clutch the car is suddenly in gear, but getting no gas and starts to engine brake.
