TheWeatherman, I asked the following just to make sure it's NOT the SRM that's causing this. Though, after watching your video again, I find it VERY bizarre and I blame a faulty accelerator pedal assembly. (possibly). But, I'm still curious, were you able to replicate the above mentioned problem without SRM?

Here is why:
first of all you are in sport mode which enables synchro rev match. Secondly you pulled the transmission out of gear and left it in neutral from 5th gear. The way synchro rev match works is that it anticipates your next gear so for instance if I were to shift from 5th to 4th it would rev for 4th gear's rpms. Now SRM (synchro rev match) only revs when in neutral or at the gate of the next lowest gear. That is your problem... well not a problem just a lil uneducated on the feature. If this bothers you turn off your SRM by pushing the sport button until the little S disappears from your gear indicator. This has nothing to do with your car being warm. Now if you want to try it again leave it in gear this time and just clutch it... I bet you it wont do the rev climb.
So in final your Z is perfectly normal... so stop babying it and drive it like a big boy  |

I believe with turning the SRM system off while running the car for a few mile then turning it back on will help trouble shoot the issue. For sure I know it is an SRM issue like I stated before. I didnt see that you were at zero mph earlier and after watching the video again I see that. turn off the SRM drive it and see if that fixes the issue, then turn it back on and see if it continues. if that doesnt work unplug the battery for several minutes to let everything die down and then plug the battery back up and try again.

Very weird /\..

Then when I actually start moving from neutral to a gear it will lock onto the actual RPM it needs for that gear ratio which may cause it to rev up a little higher still in the case of 1, 3, 5. In neutral it only does this for about 2 seconds before it gives up on you.
I've seen other people documenting this behavior, including a video so I know I'm not crazy.

I will clear up some confusion with a video that I made yesterday. I don't know why Modshack's SRM doesn't do this but almost all members here can say the same thing about neutral drop with SRM on. Bullit, Chrislicks, M41mustang - I think this is EXACTLY what you guys are trying to explain. Take a look
(sorry for the cheesy forum advertisement at the end
. I usually get tons of questions in comments section so I explained everything on the video)
As you can see, if I move the shifter from 6th to Neutral, RPM goes up( just enough for 5th gear) and stays there until I pop it to 5th. BUT, if I move the shifter to the left (while staying in neutral), car thinks I want to downshift even further (3 or 4th gear) and REVS the RPM even more. This is a very normal behavior and as mentioned above almost ALL of the 370Z owners with SRM experience this (except modshack). Modshack, maybe this video will show you what we are trying to explain.
As for OP, sorry we kinda got a little off topic. PLEASE keep us posted on what they find out.
