Default Won’t rev past 2.5k rpms

Hello everyone, I’m new to the Z community and picked up a 2007 350Z Enthusiast with 34k miles on it. I’m still getting used to manual cars and I ended up stalling it in a parking lot. Went to turn the car back on, and keep practicing. The car feels like it went into a limp home mode I assume? Would not rev past 2.5k rpms. I got her home and was gonna let it sit overnight and see if the car goes back to normal tomorrow. If it doesn’t, anyone know what may be the problem? (I’m new to all this so please don’t be harsh on me
(Also no lights of any sort are on other than the tire pressure light that has been on)

Not all codes throw a cel. I would run by someplace and see if there are any stored codes, next would to be to pop the hood and look. Behind keyboards we can only offer so much, so dont be lazy and go get your hands dirty

Welcome- do a little research on limp mode and you'll find the onboard diagnostic system only activates it when it detects a serious mechanical problem that could compromise safely. One tool that most of us have found invaluable is an OBD2 code reader/program that allows you to access codes held in memory and more quickly diagnose what the problems are.
