Proper way to down shift?

You want to impress that cute girl over there (just be prepared...she won't be impressed. She'll think you are a loud, annoying idiot who doesn't know a think about what women want. She'll tell you this if you are moving slowly enough and your window is down).

the Z's throttle lag is considerably longer than say my G's pedal input.
