I have been reading a lot of peoples posts saying that the SRM (Syncro Rev Matching) blips the throttle on up shifts. But it is my my understanding even from before I bought my Z34 and was looking into them, that the SRM is actually only on the down shifts. While driving the car I only notice the down shifts being affected. Then with it off I obviously notice no blip on downshifts.

Any way on topic. My bad habit for my Z's which have all been MT. Is I always tend to rev 2nd, 3rd and some times 4th pretty high before I shift, I just love hearing the car roar. Before I know it I'm going to fast......lol.
