This happened to me the other day and freaked me right out. I thought it was the traction control but i wasn't slipping, hell it wasn't even that hairy of an off ramp. I down shifted to 4th at 60 and turned right and WTF!

I haven't had it happen on the streets even down to 3 dots. On the track though I made the mistake of letting my tank go down to 1/2. Exiting out of a completely flat right hander, full power in 2nd, then almost redlining 3rd I completely lost power for a solid 2-3 seconds. Happened again the next lap but for even longer so I had to pit

Two fixes I understand
1.phunks fuel pump. (Awesome but expensive at 1000 bucks) 2. Fuel cell. (I don't know anyone who has done it on a DD) Brings the cost of making the Z into a real ( or capable if you prefer) sports car up by another thousand bucks (with non factory/ non-warrantee parts). So what's the count now? $3-4000? Still an awesome car and its still fun to mod but whew that's not great for a car supposed to be track ready from the box...

If it makes us feel better, an M3 (E36?) owner told me he needed an extra fuel pump too, to fix fuel starvation.
On the streets it is tougher to have happen as going left sends the fuel sloshing back. I don't face many long right handers.

I have a 2013 and honestly I agree with most of your statements but the road noise. I haven't really heard any rattles nor noise while driving. And I drive in CA where roads blow.

I wasn't aware that the car was supposed to be track ready out of the box. Has it ever been marketed as such?
