You mean like Ferrari putting different tires & tunes on cars depending on the test, even during the same magazine testing day? :shakes head:

Ferrari always cheats. At everything. And if you call them out on it, you don't get to buy a Ferrari. You and I are off the list now.

I had a Lotus Elise and EVERYONE will ask/take pictures. They would take my picture more than Vipers even. Im thinking about buying a white Nismo. Will it get THAT much attention?

Not as much as an Elise...

Now if the nismo you get has 662hp then it's a different story ;)

Did a trackday yesterday. After my first session was over. I had a lot of people come over and ask me about the Nismo. As I'm the only Z tracking at Pittsburgh International that I know of. Going down the front straight in 4th at 8,000 rpm, then braking for T1, catching a down shift with the revmatch is pure music with LTH's and the whole FI exhaust. :tup:

Sorry to be nitpicky, but isn't the 370 (and Nismo) rev limited to 7500rpm?

Chuck33079 07-20-2013 07:06 PM

You can raise it with a tune.

Come out of T11 in 3rd. Shift to 4th at 7400~7600 rpm. Hold to 8,000 rpm because soon as I hit 8,000 rpm. I'm hard on the brakes for T1. Soon as the rpms drop down to about 5,000 rpms. Down shift to 3rd. Still hard on the brakes.
