MC's 2024 Z NISMO

Amazing Lap Sir!

 

[280driver]

2nd Autocross in the NISMO.

Still learning the car but was really impressed today with the precise steering. There were a few instances I entered a turn too hot and was expecting some understeer but the NISMO exclusive traction mode applies light braking to the outside wheels and prevented it. Tires felt great however I will say today I had to baby short shift into 2nd right at the start as waiting to 5-6k rpm would really upset the rear right when I was entering the first gate. At the very end of the course I felt like it needed to be in 3rd as I could feel the power cut just a bit more than my last event when that wasnt an issue at all. I wonder how leaving it in auto would do but I just fear it will shift to 3rd like mid course and ruin my run so chose just to run manual. Here is my best run of the day. Hopefully will have some on course shots to post this week.

That was awesome!

It disappeared from the dealer website a couple months ago I assume they sold it or dealer traded

I enjoyed my 2023 Z and am glad I had it for 7 months as I feel I will have a better appreciation for the NISMO and the differences.

I feel the same way. I'm really going to miss my 2023 Z and had fun times with it. But owning for approximately a year will give me a appreciation of the Nismo. Funny how things change, I thought I was going to take that 23 Rosewood Z to the grave with me. Lol.

this Z was a handful today lol

 

[MCN1SMO]

I ran Time Only no class even though the Z is classed as B street(BS) I would have won that class today that included a couple Corolla GRs and a M2. so turns out I had some solid runs

How does the Nismos compare? Z vs GTR

its funny I havent driven the GTR in like 2 months. but today we took it and the Z to this local car show and just everything about it feels different. the newer GTRs addressed this already but I like the Z steering wheel size much better. the Z is a way better around town driver as the GTR feels clunky. the non digital dash and smaller infotainment make the GTR feel more than a 9 year old car. but for just sheer brute force speed its not even a comparison. I was getting 4.2 0-60 in the Z the other day with some classic RWD wheel spin.. the NISMO is like 2.8 with no spin.

I wouldnt want to live with the GTR NISMO as a daily by any means. so my situation is a fortunate best of both worlds
