I'm babying her for another few hundred miles... She's only a week old. Once we get out of break-in, I plan on being a regular at traffic court. :-)

I drive my car like I'm being chased. I bought this car to go fast. If the car can't take it then my next won't be a Nissan. ;)

Its under your settings ui on the left. You can set it any rpm, some use it at lower rpm to make sure they shift to save gas. Others leave it at 7500, I'm off, because I love to redline.

I occasionally hit the rev limiter before shifting. My driving varies. I can granny it till I practically want to fall asleep behind the wheel or I tap into her hard deep n rough. Floggin er till she gets tired and thirsty and needs to be quenched.
You can't over baby a sports car because then the ECU begins to forget its linked to a sports car. Eventually driving the Z will feel like driving an altima, hence being a 37k waste of cash.

I drive with hands at 9 and 3 position. Sitting upright all the time. Taking every apex properly. Downshift and brake before turns. Up shift at 3K RPM exactly (when it makes that cool VROOM sound). And floor it till 10 past the speed limit at least once every drive (even if its a 2 minute drive).

Letting off the gas at 4k+ RPM for a stop sign / red light sounds so beautiful!
