The exhaust is coated with an anti corrosive film that takes about 2-3k to burn off its natural. You notice it will eventually go away and all will be great.

I recently hit 20,000 miles on my nismo and when I run the heater fairly high (usually when I notice it) there is a burning smell. To me smells like hot plastic or something idk. I did just get back from an hour drive and I drive somewhat aggressively but not more than what I feel the car should be able to handle. Any thoughts? the oil temp was around 220 and rarely gets higher than that

I hope you get this resolved... that said...
I'm glad you bumped this thread because I was wondering about the burning smell that the rest of this thread seems dedicated to and am relieved to see that my situation is completely normal. |

i have 13,000 miles on my car and i get this smell once in a while, this morning it was particularly strong, a burning rubber/plastic smell. i was just sitting in traffic in the rain and it was quite disturbing, i turned the AC on just to drown it out a bit, i really wish i knew what it was |
