That is how the S mode works... you'll get used to it when you drive more. That was one of the first things that I noticed, if you play with it, it will shoot to redline.

It also watches your speed, clutch, brake and throttle inputs. So if you are going to slow down, push the clutch in, put it in neutral and let out of the clutch and the revs should drop down.

How do you like it so far? Man I love blue. :-D

Side note... this was released yesterday.

2015 NSX. It's going to be awesome. I hope.

I can't think of a situation where you'd need to go straight into neutral from high revs anyhow. If you needed to slow down you can brake while it's in gear, downshift, repeat (don't do this when not in S mode).

BTW all, I'll probably be in attendance at the upcoming meet. Looking forward to meeting everyone.

Cool! Looking forward to meeting a lot of new 370Z'ers from the area!

Damn that's hot. TT mid engine??

Holy crap. Great scoop, but I much more rather that they didn't scrap plans for a production model of the HSV-010 GT.

TypeOne · 01-10-2012, 10:16 AM

No turbos...

Specs haven't officially been released, but it should be something similar to this.

420hp NA mid engine V6
100(est) hp through front electric motors that control the wheels.
Combined power of around 500

use Hondas Hybrid SH (super handling AWD system)

Here is a cool video to watch.

I never drove one until now. Never thought it would be able to hug corners like an STI maybe better :-)

My STi would understeer bad... you really can feel the AWD system, not to mention the turning radius sucked.

I love my Z, it's hands down the most fun car I've ever owned... and my STi made over 500whp.

Man, I shouldn't post again.. but if you want to roll out to the meet with us this Saturday, feel free. It's going to be a lot of (younger) people going with Z's and G's so just be prepared. I say it like I'm old... I'm 26, but a lot of the people going are younger than us.

I think Kaien, Punk86 are meeting at my shop and then we are going to meet up with Windex and roll out to laffy.

KaienZ34 · 01-10-2012, 09:00 PM
