Nissan obviously is burying the fact that their using DAS (due to being known to be terrible steering) since you have to go dig up their technically definition of their DAS to even understand the specifications on the new Z
that's a huge bummer. IIRC there's basically no real mechanical connection between steering wheel and tires with that system
