I am thinking about resetting my ECU(or does even my car have one?) for some reason I am feeling my car timing isn't right. (I bought it a used car and I do not know what the first owner done to the car)


Does anyone know that might know about resting the ECU?

(my car is automatic tranmission by the way....... and I feel there is a time delay when i want to take off fast)

Lol what?? There is usally an delay when you want to "take off fast" with an auto tranny. How much of a delay are you talking about

Could just be a dirty throttle body. The Z is also "drive by wire" and on stock "Nissan's 'Drive by wire' setup, after 5500 rpm, the throttle flap starts to close and blocks off air flow. This will still occur even if your foot is smashed down on the accelerator pedal. They do this to reduce horsepower and torque giving you the feeling that the car is no longer making power causing you to lift off the throttle and shift before reaching the rev limiter".

Just quoting technosquare....(hence the quotations and italics), to explain the throttle lag this guy seems to be experiencing.
