Poll: Do you prefer the Synchro Rev or with it Off?

LaBron · 06-05-2010, 07:47 PM

I prefer it off! I feel like it revs harder and I can shift more smoothly. They say the synchro rev helps shift smoother, but I like it off! what are your opinions?

I like it on. I haven't learned how to heel-toe downshift because I don't feel comfortable or safe to practice on public roads so synchro-rev match is on...love the way it sounds and downshifts are smoother.

I never thought I'd use it...ever. Now I'm hooked and I never turn it off.

You should actually use the poll feature. I'm curious what other people think!

TreeSemdyZee · 06-05-2010, 11:21 PM

Always on. Except of course when I disconnect the battery cable and forget to turn on the SRM afterwards. Kind of a serious shock when you go to downshift the first time.

It goes something like this: Downshift. @##**@#*!!!

LunaZ · 06-06-2010, 02:09 PM

Where's the poll?

I'm hooked on Synchro-Rev. It's just so nifty and I'm surprised it wasn't put on a production car before 2009.
That said, I'm from the old school and I know how to heel-toe, so I poo-poo'ed the idea of Synchro-Rev when the 370Z was introduced. After two months in my Z, a ride in my Mazdaspeed3 showed me I was already getting a little rusty!

Off. Never used it once and I don't plan to.

370Zsteve · 06-06-2010, 08:48 PM

SRM kicks A$$

WShade · 06-06-2010, 09:38 PM

On!

and where's the poll?

AK370Z · 06-07-2010, 01:38 AM

I have ONLY turned SRM Off maybe 3 times since I left the dealer last year. Absolutely amazing feature offered by Nissan.

P.S. Poll reflects all votes posted in this thread.

Sorry! I'm kind of new to the forum so when I posted this thread as a "poll" I didn't know I could make it as an actual voting poll from the options! Thanks AK for having my back on this! By the way, I got my decals in! Nice! Thx!

You're welcome. I really can't take full credit. One of the member send me a pm about this thread to bring it to my attention.

Did you put them on the car? Where are the picture?

wolf41779 · 06-07-2010, 02:05 AM

On, I turned it off last week to see if I could still heel toe like I could in my WRX. I could manage, but it wasnt nearly as smooth as the SRM. It will stay on FTW!
