I swear I see more Ferraris in the Houston metro than Z’s. I don’t believe I’ve ever seen a NISMO on the streets.
There's one guy that brings his to the Z meets here in Houston. Black one. Next meet is this Sunday at Catalina Coffee off Washington.

I never ever cared for wireless chargers because the phone will likely overheat. My 2021 Supra did this so I stopped using it.

another article about this thread and nissan even responded in this one

From the article

“…it sounds like Z Nismo 6MT allocations have already been given to dealerships. Those cars will still be in search of a buyer. But with a reported extremely low production count coupled with potentially high demand, we won't be surprised to find dealer markups applied to the bottom line.”

Dealers would do that? ;) ;) 😆

I’m in Cinco Ranch this morning, on my way to Brenham for the weekend. And what should I spy at breakfast this morning? A bright red Ferrari. :) Not a Z to be found, other than mine.

If you're driving the Z to Brenham, enjoy the ride! Haven't been that way in awhile and have never taken the Z. Cheers.

Thanks! I’ll be cruising all the countryside back roads in the Z, from La Grange to Brenham. Some nice twisties and Brenham’s pretty nice to hangout for the weekend, away from the mania of Houston and a great way to enjoy the Z. :)

I’m glad they changed the name to Shinkai Green. I am having the hardest time pronouncing Unryu Green. My Japanese wife is sitting here laughing at me as my redneck tongue does yoga in its failed attempts to say Unryu.

What is the "D-Mode" in the Nismo version do?

it adds sport like the performance or the NISMO exclusive Sport+ mode
But it is shown on the manual car. I don’t have that on my manual 2024

easiest way to explain it is they had to add D mode to the manual Z even though D mode is meant for automatics. reason being is the Sport+ actually changes the engine timing of the NISMO and is a big part of the NISMO making that extra power. So they had to incorprate that into the manual NISMO so it wouldnt be lesser than what the auto NISMO Z is.



the 2027 manual NISMO gets the automatics D- mode and it keeps the sync rev button like you have it just relocates it to the empty heated seat slot

When you push D Mode on the MT NISMO the CAN bus shoots a special signal through the button to your finger straight to your brain and gives you the ability to shift faster. You won’t find that on Google though. Cutting edge super secret Japanese technology.

I can’t believe that car doesn’t come with some of the creature comforts (heated seats)of the performance trim. Seams crazy to me. Maybe it’s because I am older.
