Interesting, complexities in today's world.
"A lot of modern manual cars have “rev hang,” when the engine maintains speed even after the driver pushes in the clutch pedal. Normally, this unburned fuel would enter the combustion chamber, enriching the air-fuel mixture and increasing emissions...
Hi all,
I know this is a wild request, but since NO dealers near me allow test drives, and I'm still in the market for a manual Performance or Sport, here's my request. If anyone local in SoCal OC, IE, LA counties has such a configured Z I'd like to feel the driving dynamics just for a very...
"America’s favorite trash meat product found exclusively under the seats of old minivans, Slim Jim, announced this week that its promotional Nissan Z sports car had been stolen in Southern California....."

Awesome cool morning cruise up to Crystal Lake. No new Z yet in the group, but a rare ZX-R joined us. I'm patiently waiting for the right-priced new Z to upgrade for a track weapon 😅
Next week, Dec 2nd, club will stage next to the Japanese Zero at Planes of Fame Air Museum, commemorating Pearl...
This year's Japanese Classic Car Show seems to have more attendees than the past, at Long Beach, CA. Here are some Z related pics. White Nismo Z really pops in that color!
Guests include Sam Mitani, R&T test editor.
Too much to ask for Nissan to engineer these nice upgrades into the Z manual:
The most significant additions to the 2024 model are a new DSC Track driving mode and a newly designed Asymmetric Limited Slip Differential (Asymmetric LSD). These new features are only available for models equipped...
Unfortunate but accidents DO happen, even though autocross is normally one of the safest.

While still waiting.....who's into road tripping, adventure riding, or ?:D

Cars n Coffee
2022 Honda CRF300L stock
Well my MYLR order just got adjusted again, down by $3K, and coming soon:D. My next Z, Nismo, Hybrid or ?? will have to wait. This because I believe mostly in the stability of the Supercharger network esp. being in CA, they're everywhere even for road trips. AND Fed tax credit is avail (full...
Here we go again this weekend 👍 . Nissan keeping status quo, let's see if they can repeat. Still bummed no Calsonic heritage carried over. And will be interesting with longer races, carbon-neutral fuel, less tire sets...
Not bad for an old Z, and a good cause. 50 yrs old, running strong like mine.
All profits from the same go to BaT’s chosen charity, The Piston Foundation, which helps get youth into the collector car trade with scholarships for colleges and trade schools.
“Our community of enthusiasts has been...
