cool.. thanks... I guess I never really payed attention, cause when I do highway runs, I usually go from like 40 till 100, and I could have sworn that was redlining 4th... guess I probably just looked at the mph untill right after I hit the brakes.>?
I trap at 105mph and have seen the shift light start to blink at end of 1/4 mile
. I have 265 tires though, a hair smaller than stock.
On side note, I have a 03 with the original transmission (22K miles). I tryied a late 04 manual (7K miles) Z recently with the new tranny... and had a very hard time shifting, didn't like it one bit. 03 is so much smoother, with a much better clutch engagement point... probably needs some getting used to, but I really hope my 03 tranny doesn't crap on me...

I don't use it much, just noticed that on one of my evening runs. I find the blinking light very innacurate. It should have been a fixed redlight that you set at given RPM, no blinking. Recently it started to annoy me, so I set it to 7000+ rpm, so it never comes on.
yeah, hey nano- I have an 05'.. and I've driven Z BOY's 03' although I like my light clutch better for daily driving (sooo easy to push in..) It is soooo much longer, and the shifts seem to really have a big notch from 1-2 in the 05' unless you take it easy
I didn't drive Zboy's car hard.. (redline or bang gears) but I'm sure the shorter stiffer feeling clutch would be much better for a drag race..
