Default ++Is this relate to clutch issue++

I searched and knew about clutch issue. anyway my car is '08 just picked up a week ago right now have 4xx mile on it.
And I have some question.
My problem is I lunch my car real hard then from 1st to 2nd I shifted at hi7k or 8k and the tire weren't slip at all.
Compare to my friend's G35 04 bone stock with 30k mile on it.
I shifted 1st to 2nd on his car and rear end slip like crazy. I even make some noise on tire(really little) at 3rd if I shift really perfect. On the G35

and surely I turn off traction on both car.

And one time on free way on my z with traction off. I shift from 3rd to 4th really hard and quick after I released the clutch padel I feel like clutch was slipping. Actually I'm very sure because car wasn't really move like it should. and i was padelling my gas padel for 3-4 time and rev go til limited cut it self.

I want to know if all these realate to the Recall. So I don't have to worry about it.

PS. sorry for my Grammar. I'm thai and not native english speaker

Your English is certainly much better than my Thai. Don't worry about your grammar. However, I would be worried about your car. I believe you said you had 400 miles and are revving to 7K-8K. You really need to break in the car for about 1200 miles before abusing it. That kind of abuse will destroy your car in a short time.

I do believe in Break in hard stuff like that for ring seal perfect live what I have been done to all my car though.
Anyway I change car every 2years.

But yeah thanks for advice for break in. I didn't try to be a dick to ignore your suggestion tho.

Sounds like your clutch is slipping.

I drove a 2008 Nismo Z recently at the dealership, and I was NOT impressed with the clutch. The pedal was super soft, almost like you could depress it by just resting your foot on it. Also, the engagement seemed too soft.


However, my '03 feels awesome. The pedal is very stiff, and the engagement is tight. It will chirp the tires shifting from 3rd to 4th if you powershift it.
