Official Nissan 370Z Synchro Rev Match Transmission thread

[AK370Z]

Okay guys, I got the official answer. Big thanks goes out to the member here (who's really high up in Nissan USA) who developed this technology for the new 370Z.

Of course, if you wait too long I believe the revs will go to idle, but as soon as the gear shift lever is moved in the direction of a gear the system will set the revs at the appropriate RPM for that gear.

Sorry for the lengthy explanation...it's much easier to understand if you have a chance to experience it.

You learn something new everyday!
