thats pretty neat actually...i think alot of people are going to like this system

This means that, as long as you know how to drive a stick, you’ll look like and sound a heroic racecar driver every time you get behind the wheel.

sounds good to me...now i can race like a pro Keiichi Tsuchiya ... :eekdance:

I'm pretty excited about the system.

I also don't like the comments on the article. People are just too pig-headed. Just turn the goddamn thing off if you don't like it that much.

^^^ what he said. I'm very proficient at heel/toe, but my mind is still open to the idea of having this system in the car. I can't wait to try it out myself.

i think the feature is great for times when i'm too lazy to match revs.

This is going to be brilliant in traffic too...

Granny shifting not double clutching like you should...

Well slide, you have to granny shift sometimes or you will blow your intake manifold and your metal floorboard will bust open for absolutely NO reason.

Then someone will tell you how you never had your car and a mob of brilliant human beings will laugh and point at you.

I'm not thrilled about the comments on the page either. Although I agree with the journalist that this is an odd feature to come with the "sport" package.
I was all against this at first, but when I'm just puttin' around, I agree that it would be handy.

As long as it comes without its Quirks :excited:being a new bit of tecknology , i hope they get it right on the first go .

Cheers

Great article! :tup:

Many auto enthusiasts can't wait to try this feature. As much fun it is to do the heel and toe by yourself, you can't really turn down a perfect Rev Match every time by the Synchro Rev Match, can you? ;)

Well, I can't anyway. Threshold braking will seem SOOOO easy using this system. Yeah, that sounds silly when ABS does that for you... or does it?

After the GTR launch control "issue" ... I have my concerns.

I read all the negative comments on that webpage and all I can say is:

Why don’t people quit being little whiny b*****s? If you want the challenge, then turn it off. Nobody is making you use the feature. So what if other people use it? It doesn’t take the enjoyment away from my own heel-toe if I wish to do it. Damn there sure are a lot of stupid people out there. Enjoy and use the car however you see fit. It’s your car and your driving no matter what other people do with theirs. Just enjoy it. Grrrr….

Sorry I just came back from happy hour and alcohol makes me mad at stupid people...

Exactly. If you DO NOT press the "Syncho Rev Match" button, it's just an ordinary transmission. Someone like me, I would love to use it when I am not in the mood for heel-n-toe. This is a very useful feature by Nissan and I am surprised to see none of the other manufacturers offer it in their automobiles before 370z.

before you know it they'll be putting electric starters on these new fangled automobiles

Am I the only one not getting sound?

Nissan 370Z SyncroRev Match Stick Shift Tech Turns Average Joe Into Super Driver

Heel and toeing is one of the hardest-to-master and most rewarding driving techniques, and now the Nissan 370Z’s manual transmission will do it for you.

Heel and toeing is the confusingly named term for using your right foot to hit both the brake and gas pedals while downshifting. The idea is to match the engine revs to what they’ll be in the lower gear before you release the clutch in that gear, all while braking to slow for a turn. If you get it right, the shift into the lower gear (or gears, it’s most rewarding doing this as you shift down through two or more gears) is incredibly smooth and allows you to brake later and harder as you turn into the corner. This means more speed, less chance of spinning and an easier time for your engine and transmission. Before racecars went all paddle shifty, you had to heel and toe or you’d blow up the engine.

Sound complicated? That’s because it is and that’s where the new-for-2009 Nissan 370Z comes in.

When you downshift, it uses the ABS sensors to read the speed of the tires, compares that data to the speed of the engine and the gear being selected, and then actuates the electronic throttle to bring the revs up to the appropriate level. It does all that faster than a human driver could, guaranteeing perfectly rev-matched downshifts every time. This means that, as long as you know how to drive a stick, you’ll look like and sound a heroic racecar driver every time you get behind the wheel.

By now, if you’re in the majority of casually enthusiastic drivers, you’re thinking this sounds pretty good. It’ll help you go faster, be safer while doing so and, most importantly, look good. The problem is that if you’re a hardcore driver, you’ve spent years developing the ability to heel and toe and don’t want to share it with the everyman, nor have it done for you. The system does have an off-switch, allowing keen drivers the ability to challenge themselves, but it does represent a further erosion of voluntary control and thus the skills necessary to go fast being removed from the driving experience.

I should add this here as well

Those commenters are idiots. Here's a crazy idea, just get the damn car without the revmatch. Yeah, I know, I'm a genius. It's scary.
