Exclamation Help!!

Hey guys so I was driving my Z today by HWY 360 in Euless

and as I was about to merge on I accelerated into redline with my 3rd gear.
I shifted right at fuel cutoff and then slapped it into fourth however my car turned off completely and i loss all power.

Pulled over on the shoulder of the service road and then attempted to turn on my car.. did not work.
Opened the hood and inspected everything, no loose connections and no funny smells..

Reset the ECU with the accelerator pedal and then on my third try it turned on but the car was vibrating like CRAZY and RPMS were fluctuating between 1.2k and 400 and it was shaking inside the cabin, so I turned it off and got it towed home..

Taking it to Nissan tomorrow..
Im so confused..
Anyone know what happened?

Thanks for the help

This thread was reduced it looks like in posts. It was posted on the 18th, however in that time, there was by my count about 15 posts, in which they found out that it was the Right Turn hard bank fuel starvation issue. OP had posted and the community "helped" as normal. Not sure where the posts went, but this has been fixed..

Did you figure out what happened?

If it wasn't fuel starvation is it possible you shifted into 2nd instead of 4th?

Yes it was figured out - Fuel Starvation from hard right bank turn on approach. See my previous post thread.
