Thanks for the post OP.

Is it just me or does it seem like the Rpm's are "hanging" in between shifts.

Thoughts: Clutch delay valve, heavy flywheel or just lazy synchro's?

^it could be because of the new S mode thinking its going to downshift to rev match. Its almost like the revup motors. I hated that on those cars.

I wouldnt take all of those times seriously. Not only some do look out of place, but remember prior to 2003, Fuji was a different layout than today, and it was a much faster track, so you can disregard comparisons between todays times.

Another Fuji lap time comparison -- the Nismo Z S-Tune GT 6MT:
power: 300ps (I guess 287 horsepower?)
weight: 3229 lbs (1465kg)

The S-Tune 350Z puts down a best lap time of 2:07.28, so the Mine's 370Z beats it by 2.7 seconds with a 2:04.6
