a smoothing factor of 5 means that it takes out the most bumps possible.
a smoothing of zero is direct read out from the dyno. Most shops post a smoothing of 5 to give a nicer looking curve, because instantaneous blips on the dyno dont mean too much.
Since your curve already is smoothed and is still that bumpy, i think something else is going on. If that said smoothing of 0 or 1, that would look sorta normal.
could be the dyno as well....
here's a good pic

First and foremost, I'd take it to another shop that works on the 350z a lot. Get a dyno from them and see how it looks. You might try to find a shop with a tuner, so they can see what's going on and advise you of whether a tune will correct any issues they find.
Thanks sharif, man I hope my tranny isn't failing..... Hopefully its not.
Mrg1981 thanks for the advice, I'm going to see what broke on the car first and then go from there... Hopefully tomorrow I will know...

but your smoothing is 0, mine was 5 and still has multiple spikes..... has anyone else dynoed on the same dyno you did, that way you can compare...... also maxmood whats your 1/4 mile times.... i thank you for trying to warn me, but as we know not all dyno's are the same, i really think something is wrong with my car and i want to figure out what it is before i lable it a "beetle" lol.. but im still keeping my options open, but its just soooo hard to let go of my z.. you know what i mean...lol..
maxmood has anyone else dyno on the same dyno as you that we can compare it too, your dyno shows multiple spikes bc smoothing was set at 0 and it became more sensative....... let us know bc im really interested and im strongly considering EVERYONES advice.....lol..
of course im biased bc i want to keep my car, but then again im not going to be stupid, i would love it if the fix was easy and we can see better results on a different dyno that i can compare other z's or g's with, but i honestly think i was the first z on that shops dyno... i was the only z at there dyno day, the rest were all V8's ie. cobras, vettes, gto's, i also saw a hemi..lol.. and a couple of cobalts....

you can take out all your stuff and get it installed on the next Z u get. no biggie.
anyways, alot of Zs dyno'ed their cars on the same dyno, and they got 230-240whp. and on the same day, a 3.5 altima sedan dyno'ed and got a tad lower than my numbers.
never had mine on the track, so dunno the 1/4.
if you're going to dyno again, look for a dynojet so you can compare results.
ball in ur hands, your decision, your money. play it wise.
here is mine N/A dyno with bolt-ons and no tune.
HKS Exhaust
Test pipes
MD 5/16" spacer
MD MREV2
K&N Drop-in with Z-Tube
