Gotcha, but I'm wondering if there's anything documented that the 370Z has the override. I would think that it would be mentioned in the Users Manual if the Z had it, but it's not (as far as I know).

Yeah I don't recall seeing it mentioned in the manual, but FWIW, over in this thread How to launch control with A7 370z? I've seen it mentioned that you can't launch the 7AT by standing on the brakes with your left foot while depressing the throttle with your right due to the override.

I don't know if thats really a brake override. You can't rev the manual in neutral over a couple thousand rpm either, brakes on or off.

When making a video with my Berk exhaust we hit the limiter, that was the first I had ever seen of it.
