Jerky Acceleration Under Load?! 27,000 Miles?! Fuel Starvation?

[SavedByFaith_]

Glad you're narrowing it down.

It's wild, b/c I did many spirited drives on my Z and never had this issue
Mind you I don't think I had it under quarter tank often during these drives

I'd recommend you monitor your g-force and try to narrow it down to a direct (right sweep vs left sweep) and how much g is typically needed to face the issue

I've experienced 1.4g on a hairpin type turn, sweeping left and never faced the issue.

Don't think I had many right-sweepers in that type of g range on my drives/roads

I have 2024 performance Z
Yes most of us on the track have this problem, its
Fuel Starvation, I also turn the traction control OFF, it still happens, so buy the kits or keep it above 65%.

Granted, I haven't really been looking around for it, but THERE'S A KIT FOR THAT?!? I'd been wondering if there was such a thing. Any recommendations? Even ghetto tips will do lol.

some ppl do DIY kits budget cost, on youtube, too.
but don't put those external fuel surge tank, You don't want fuel lines routings into trunk cabins, for safety reasons,

Not good, I've tracked other cars with similar issues, but on the new Z? Nissan should've known and fixed this, totally disappointed!

Seeing as how this isn't a new platform or drivetrain, why am I only hearing about it in regards to the new Z?

I tried to find reports of it occuring in the Q cars, there's one or two mentions of suspected fuel starvation, but it ended up being more likely the 7AT. I had the "G37" Q60 and can confirm that the hesitations rarely reported on the turbo Qs definitely occurred on my VQ37 7AT car.... I freaking hated that transmission.

What's different about the new Z? The 9AT....

Really miss the old 5AT now that I've had both newer transmissions....

Has this been noticed on 6MT Z's?

It does it for my 2024 sport 6mt

There's a guy on YouTube from 2 years ago that installed the Z1 Motorsports Starvation Kit on his 370Z. I've been wondering if the results are worth the hassle. It doesn't seem to be too difficult to install. The price seems to fluctuate. I didn't know the Z had a double fuel tank.
