I just got my Z two months ago from a private party. The car looked and ran great but something caught my attention. I am new to driving a manual car so sorry if I sound stupid.

When I am trying really get speed, I shift at higher RPMs. But I noticed that my car gets really loud (as in telling me to shift) around 5000 rpm. I try to ignore it I still shift at about 5300. In the end when I bring the rpm back down it smells like burnt. I don't know if this is normal or am I going to have this checked out. Also should I just ignore how loud the engine is getting and keep accelerating to 6500 for more whp?

P.S. I have a nismo exhaust and an intake, maybe that is why the engine sounds so loud at higher rpms?

 

Lmao well my young grass hopper, that is called V-Tech power band that your hitting at such high RPMS there is no telling how loud she might get.

 

How can I get this fixed? Is it a big problem I need to fix right away?

 

I can't tell if this is a joke or not..

 

Yes!!

 

 

Stop ****ing with me Lmao

 

Look here Original Postman I was just having a little fun with your post. I'm not sure if your really that clueless but since its your first Z I'll give you a hand, I believe your clutch is toast and you should have it diagnosed . There's actually helpful hints online on how to be sure if its your clutch starting to sleep. You can try this... turn car on putthe EBrake up then move your shifter to second gear and try taking off! It car doesn't stall out in that instant then it might be something else. Hope this helped your concerned self.

 

Vtech is good, your smelling raw tuned power. Kinda like race car

 

Thanks

 

So the whole engine getting loud, I should just ignore it and shift until the 6500 which is the max?

 

^yes, let us know how long your car lasts

 

Alright douche

 

Bro why do you feel the need to shift up to 6500 rpms every time? Are you seriously going to drive Red Line towards every stop light? . You must be joking. Please tell me you are lol

 

Not EVERY time. I always shift around 3000 for better gas mileage, the only time I do want to hit 6500 is when some douche pulls up next to me trying to act hard, which in reality only happens about twice a week. I know you shift at higher rpms for more horsepower to the wheels so that's what I want.

 

This is getting really annoying.

 

yeah... don't hate me because you cant use google and shift at 6500 and I'm the "douche"

 

Your the douche, thinking your cool and fast with your new Z when you don't even know how to drive it! Your clutch is probably gone due to you shifting at 6500 all the time not knowing how to drive manual...

 

*You're

Do you know how to read? The highest I have shifted is 5300. I always shift at 3000, don't tell me I don't know H

 

*You're

Do you know how to read? The highest I have shifted is 5300. I always shift at 3000. There's a difference of not knowing how to drive manual and being new at it with not much experience. I've only had the car for 2 months and I don't drive like a dumbass, the clutch is probably gone due to the previous owner. I asked for help to see what is the burnt smell, if you are not trying to help me stop wasting my time and yours on my post.
