I just used the "syncro-match"
 

OMG OMG!! I have had my Nismo for 1 week and a day now. When I initially test drove it everytime I pressed the clutch the engine would rev and it was annoying, so I disabled S-mode.
Today I decided after doing some reading to see what the hype is all about. Again....OMG, OMG!! That is hella cool, the downshifts are super smooth. Before when coming to a complete stop, I would put it in neutral and coast or would select a lower gear that I knew the speed at the time could handle smoothly.
I heard some folks say the S-mode dumbs down the manual shifter or somehow the S-mode takes away from the shifting experience....that's a load of crap!!
Really cool innovation Nissan!!!

Quick...... Get a cookie!

dude you're in raleigh? ever see my CY around? pic was taken in the parking deck across from napper tandys

ughhhh this is why i need a manual...

so many awesome synchro rev stories, im so left out... I guess Ill just turn VDC off later to make me feel better

VDC off is like the new cocaine

yellow doesnt stand out,

have you ever seen my MB?!

This thread is going to go down fast.

not as fast as a paddle-shift thread would.

OP, the reason you read negative comments about Syncro Rev Match is because not everyone has a Nismo. Your tranny comes with eagle mode.

paddles are fun >.> ibtl

ibsc...

wait i did that wrong

IBTL

EDIT: just checked, my 7AT has syncrorev match for my paddles

WIN

we need a rowboat emoticon :koolaidwall:

:bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl::bowrofl::stirthepot:

Don't forget the fluid.

Congratulations on your discovery. It is a very fun car to drive. You are getting extra "love" on this post because it has been discussed many times in other posts. Dont worry though. They are harmless and most of them very helpful when you need it. ;)
Enjoy your ride.

I disagree, Spohn and Shado both bite....keep all hands in the the vehicle while using s mode.

:iagree: this is absolutely true.

I'm glad you found a new joy in your Z!

:roflpuke2: shhhh

:icon18:

I haven't seen you my friend. I will be looking for you now though (lol). I have a solid red Nismo...so "holla at your boy" if you see me on 540!!

*sigh* Base model no Synchro-Rev...still ****loads of fun to drive around in Germany. :tup:

Eagle mode FTMFW!!!

We have syncro rev match too, dude...

Down shift a gear or two on coast down, it will rev to match.

EDIT: They call it "Downshift Rev Match", but it's basically the same thing...

I also lack SRM, but I also still have a lot of fun in the Z.

SRM is just a bonus for the sport owners.

Thanks for the reminder, bro lol

EDIT: Definitely read it too fast and wasn't even thinking on what you wrote. But yea I prefer the whole "ME" synching the downshift

I like where this thread is going.

No, it's already there.

Thanks "torpedo2k" I am having a ball with it. Its been a long time since I have completely enjoyed driving a vehicle!! I broke 300 miles today...only 900 more to go!!! She still will get treated like a princess though!

The first 1200 seems forever. After that it rolls.

yeaaa

it kind of reminds me of finally turning 21...then after that it goes too quick

please be aware of what happens when you turn it off. I hope you know you will spin the car.......

i wish i could soar with the eagles:shakes head:

yes i thought the VVEL thread go off topic this one should be even better:stirthepot:

oh and

IBTL!!!!!! just for good measure:tup:

Yeah. Can you smoke, eat, read newspaper, and jerk off at the same time? with a paddle shifter, I can, all the time. Automatic WIN.

ummm....what is "IBTL"?

according to the highway code in the UK you can only do 1 of those things in the car while driving. the others are banned.

hint, only the final one is ok:tup:

Yea, I want to read a newspaper while driving.

In before the lock. As in locking this thread. Which will likely happen after the moderators here see it.

In before the lock

GET OUT MY HEAD :excited:

Glad my Jedi powers still work.

OK....we have gone from syncro revs.....to jerking off.....to VVEL.....to Jedi Knight powers!! Is this what I have to forward too? lol
