Default It feels good

My Z is driving great these past two weeks. You ever get that feeling? Like when you start mashing on the throttle, it just feels good, like juicing an orange, or putting a hot knife through butter.

Maybe it is because of the cooler weather... We've been getting hell here for a long summer. But now it's 78 - 85 deg F throughout most of the day. Anyways, I'm glad for the great weather and even gladder that my fairlady Z is running even better (possibly)...

Cooler air = more dense = more HP. The "CAI" effect.

Cuz people make threads about problems they are having with their Z, but hardly ever start a thread saying, "Gee, today my Z felt great!"

The Z does not care for really hot weather to be sure. You can feel a big difference in performance in really hot (over 100) weather.

Great weather as in hot and sunny? If so, my car usually feels like sh*t driving in hot southern weather where temperature gets to 110 degrees. Exhausts start rattling, car feels slower, etc.....
