Not super useful, I agree. But you may be able to correlate lag to turbine speed, especially useful if you are roll racing a 6MT??

Just grabbing at straws!

The beaut of this is that it will force more manufacturers to include this port on their turbines for it to fit this car. Though not necessary it will inform/teach owners about and help the driver operate the car better. (dont expect much if your turbine speed is low)

No complains on this gauge, could have been worse, could have been the 3rd model with a specific gauge for the clock.

Thanks for posting!

Jay calls it like he sees 'em and his car show is one of the best. Here's to hoping I get to visit his garage one day!

This is the best view and take on this new Z yet. I love the blue on blue too.

One look at the trunk says a lot! 100% 370.

More later....

Jay Leno is a badass!
One week, he's climbing out of a plane to mess with the pilots, next week he's got a hand's on with what may be the most anticipated Japanese enthusiast car of all time.

I can't wait for YouTube reviews of this car; in particular Throttle House and The Straight Pipes. Overall, it's what I expected - it's what we were all asking for - pretty much a 370z with a twin turbo kit and 6MT from the factory. Throw in some interior bits to make it more modern looking and I'm happy. I prefer the looks of the current Z to the new one - but I'm sure I'm a little biased as well as I'm sure as time goes on - my mind will change. I am disappointed in the electric steering feel but...at the same time - I think it was just a matter of time since most cars that way and there isn't very many hydraulic steering anymore. Regardless - if I were looking at used Zs or a new one for that matter and I was looking to turbo/supercharge it - would just make sense to wait and get one from the factory with a warranty.

I think the reason they put the turbine speed there, is just because it will look cool with the needle always moving.

This is unlike the battery voltage and temperature gauges which move so slowly that they appear static and stationary.
