Hmmmmm. Good catch. Makes this thread even scarier.

How the hell did you make that catch and manage for it to be your Post #1?

I've never had my tranny grind.

Unless, you aren't pushing the clutch all the way in...

Combine with his inquiry in this thread, and . . .

oh, yeah. I guess that WAS my first post.

well, technically, I don't have a Z ...yet. I'll be taking delivery of a '12 sometime during the week of 12/5. I used to have one though, back in the day. back when they were called Datsun 280Zs. I wish I still had that museum piece.

I doubt this

gwesley · 11-17-2011, 12:36 PM

really?
which part do you doubt?

I think he misread the post. when I read it the first time it sounded like it was your first post making you the original poster but once you understand that you were being given props for realizing that you found that the op also posted in the new owners section and you caught that on your very first post as a new member he will understand. +1 to you my friend.

gwesley · 11-17-2011, 12:42 PM

ahhh.
now I unnerstand

gwesley · 11-17-2011, 12:46 PM

as an aside, I am getting pretty antsy to take delivery of my new Z. Haven't has a sports car in a long time. You know how it goes: career, family, life...

Looking forward to, you know, peel off with a manual.

haitech · 11-17-2011, 01:30 PM

There goes another Z...
