If you really wanna feel the rush just fly by a cop while accelerating over the speed limit. That's always good for getting some sweaty palms.

Man.......... Everytime I go fast, I just get exited! and Everytime I just think "I love my CAR!"

For those who have been driving MT for a while, I know you know what I'm talking about.

Does the feeling ever go away? because I dont want to lose that feeling, Its awesome!
I literally laughed out loud when I read your post I have been driving Nissan sports cars for 2 years and for me...the feeling you describe is forever present....I am sooo proud of my baby

To me, weather predicts whether my Z will feel fast or slow. From 40-77 degrees, the z is a monster. 52-66 degree days is where the Z feels like it has an extra 40hp. then comes those Texas summers, where the car feels average fast. Even with oil cooling it doesn't feel as good as it does in the fall/winter.

That's why I got rid of it. Performance was too inconsistent. In the winter, car was an absolute blast. In the AZ summers, it felt no faster than a Chevy Malibu, and was waaaaaaaaaay too loud / rough for that level of performance.

I foresee you speeding, building up your excitement, hitting your E-brake to make yourself feel like Johnny badass, only to crash, die, burn, kill others, and should you live, be hit with a lawsuit so hard, it will be considered a heirloom for 10 generations. Good luck with your endeavors OP, Post when you have a salvaged motor to sell.

All in good fun Be safe about what you do, preferably, in an enclosed area... off of public roads.
