more like disconnected to the clutch.

take it out and see. it's an easy 2min job. all you need is 2 functional hands, one needle nosed pliers, and maybe a flashlight.

I know that's due to me not being use to it. Clutch was mushy as hell, way too soft for me. It actually felt as if I were down grading lol I also got to test drive an automatic sport packaged Z and that felt way cleaner and more powerful than the nismo. So for now i'm going to stick with my modded up 09 Z

I had a 2010 sport/touring 7at and it was a nice car but now I have a 2013 Nismo and this car has been everything I need in a car,plus I put the same super charger on this car that I had on the 2010 and my Nismo made 66 rwhp more.

It's pretty hard not to like a Nismo

Still amazed by the numbers your pumping out with the 1.5. Best change they did to the Nismo were changing the color of the rims, it looks so much better on every color.

The darker rims set it off so nice.

Considering I think my car makes the lowest WHP of any full bolt on and tuned 370Z I've ever seen... I'm not holding my breath haha. My tq is generally 10lbft off from everyone else making similar power.

Yeah but the twins will make your car come to life.
