shado, I don't agree with you on the spoiler though. I think the a$$ is kind of bare with out the lip. I just like the extra lines it creates. :yum:

I like the bare rear end. I think the lines flow better without. But to each their own.

wings are definitely luv/hate. i had to search a while to find my G without the hideous rear factory ironing board wing 8yrs ago when i bought mine. :tup:

i added a small lip of my liking on there later on. :yum: the Z's factory spoiler didn't bother me.

Oh, don't get me wrong. I think the stock Z34 spoiler looks good. I just think the butt without the spoiler looks just as nice, but opinions are like elbows. Errybody's got 'em.

my SRM has been off since i bought the subaru. last thing i need is to throw the subaru into gear and not blip lol...and now i'm used to matching myself. even when i turned on SRM to show someone what it does, my foot was still trying to rev match...so meh.

You guys rev matching (no SRM) with the stock pedals? If yes, which pedal gets the heel and which one gets the toe? I find the pedal placement in the Z kinda tough to work with.

Have you heard of fatfooting? That's what I do.

I turn it on I turn it off I notice no difference. I guess I just know how to shift.

on street you can just do a ball of foot on the brake + side of foot on throttle pedal. in fact i do this on most of my cars (less z since i use SRM) unless im really on the brake and swing the heel around to setup the turn.

I didn't get the sport for the rev matching I got for the cool wheels and spoiler.

Ah ok, I'll give that a go.

I thought I was going insane. But I've been driving on/off VDC and VCD=OFF gives way smoother shifts, night and day difference.

I know it sounds nuts, but I don't care, it is true because I've tested it for a week straight.

I learned to drive stick on my cam/head/full bolt-on 5.0 with a TKo500/Hurst and 4.10s with a 3.27 first gear. If it was in gear when you came to a stop, it wouldn't really stall, even with the huge cam--at least not before it lurched 10-20 feet. Made me paranoid.

1-2 in the 'vert SUCKED, but 1-2 in the hard-top I drove was great. The seat in the 'vert wouldn't go back far enough to accomodate the clutch pedal/me. I'm only 5'10.5" I thought this was wierd...

Yea that made big difference for me, i'm tall so if i dont push the seat back all the way i keep giving too much gas and shifting sucked, its hard to get smooth shifts on this car unless you're at 5k rpm, comming from muscle cars we're used to shifting at low rpms to save gas and with high tourqe
