When he turned it on the car stuttered a bit and for a few seconds it had trouble getting the RPMs up. Like it was about to stall.
Mine did the same thing, several times now, its after driving a bit and then getting back in, it stutters and feels like it's going to stall.
When I had my Nismo exhaust installed I had them check this, of course they didn't find anything wrong.
RCZ: Do you know what brand of gas you were running? I know for sure I had just filled up the night before with Shell 91Oct. And Im almost sure that was what I was using the last time it happened.
Could it be a detergent or additive in the fuel?

Oil temp is between 180 - 220 range, usually hovers around 200. I hate to see what it's going to be like in mid summer when it's 90-100 degrees out side.

As a side note, I just changed the oil to Royal Purple synthetic this last weekend, it did nothing to lower the oil temp, but Im certain the car feels quicker, it seams to rev faster and have more torque, it could be my imagination but I could swear the car gained 10+ HP.

Looks like we are in need of some after market oil cooler. What were the 350z oil temps running at, were they similar??
