it's the air temp and height above sea level, not vtec. and you can't troll your own thread. that's just bad manners.

Back OT- with the change of seasons coming on, it would be wise to check the type of tires on your Z. If it's a summer only type of tire, the tread compound will not have enough traction for temps in the 30's. Even if that only occurs in the morning, it's a rude awakening going bassackwards off the road when you exit a corner. All-season tires would be a good DD upgrade. Also, if the tread depth of your tires is below 4/32nds, it may lead to hydroplaning on wet roads.

So that made me look up what my tires are, and they are apparently summer tires. Interesting because many other FX owners reported doing well in the snow, but they also have AWD I think. I slid around on ice a bunch last year, and maybe that is why lol.

by far the best answer.

The compounding on summer tires is quite different than on all-seasons. The rubber is formulated to withstand high temp, but can't remain as supple at near freezing temperatures. Also think of the Z33's weight distribution at 53F/47R. The Infiniti FX with AWD and more weight over the front axle can overcome a certain amount of traction loss that a Z cannot.

BTW- you could learn to drive like a rally driver, but that won't do $%&! at the bottom of a slippery hill with a four-way stop. You'll just CRASH like a rally driver...

I was just looking at your signature and remember seeing a Z with the same bumper sticker I think it was white? I was behind it pulling out of the CRC parking garage.

Oh what a coincidence lol. Well maybe I'll see you around, what color and year is your car. Mines black and look pretty stock appearance wise besides my headlights.

That quote is from 9K Racing so its somewhat well known. Yeah that'd be sick and mine is an 04, silverstone i think (the darkish grey). pretty much all stock, besides being lowered a little.
