I believe your very knowledgeable about Z's (not sarcastic) and have learned a TONNE I am sure through the build of your car AND on this forum.
Scott, with all due respect to all the forum members here, I was being sarcastic. Even though I try to turn away and cringe, it simply pains me to read/see such threads/posts as this OP's. It has been his MO from day one. I am not saying that we all need to be engineers, astronauts, brain surgeons, etc. to post on this form, however just a bit common sense and logic should be used before one posts anything.

To get the feature you will need a tune. I used ECUTech. They created a "second map" that i can toggle using the cruise control buttons. Once on that map I hold the clutch in and the car bounces off the set RPM that I told the tuner to use.

I can usually tell when you are being sarcastic but, because of the limitations of text, it's not always easy. Try using or something similar.

Just finished praying for you Kenchan so your good for an hour or so.
I am not a snowflake and have thick skin. I seen a reasonably new member (which I didn't look up his previous posts) and thought it was a little harsh of a response.
I was hasty in replying and realize it sounded like I was a forum cop.

Im assuming some abbreviation for noob?
Google searching "OP" would have given you the answer. But honestly, you can't let negative comments get to you on here. There are thousands of people that use this forum. Some are helpful, some are dicks, and some are helpful dicks

...and then there are some dicks that need assistance and clarification with everything! Now, please explain 'Google' to the OP so that he doesn't embarrass himself with his next question, "what's google?"

I'm a ****--a lazy **** to be precise.

Being a lazy ****, I'd like to point out that OP could have typed two characters into Google and found his answer. Far easier than typing out the entire question here--and less inconvenient to the person who had to answer such a simple question.

On the other hand, maybe that signifies that OP has a good work ethic and doesn't like to take easy shortcuts.

Edit: Wait. Why is my word censored when the plural form is fine in what I quoted? N/M. Rhetorical question. I should probably just ask Google.

I need lunch control. I am getting round in the belly for some reason. I don't understand why.
