Its worth it when you're on autox and want the power right away verses waiting for 3500 to roll around. Practice makes perfect but you gotta pay to play and keep the fluids fresh. I used to rev match 1st up to 4500ish. Takes some foot work but it sure is a blast. I miss my Z dearly but opportunity has created the need for a truck so I will return to the Z platform one day. As you can see I'm still addicted to the forums because I love the car so much
I'm not gonna gunk up the topic so OP, enjoy!
