Hairyaardvark Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Hey folks, I've a 350z HR late 08 car which is driving great, solid performance, virtually no oil consumption, I've sorted all the suspension and rattles, all good. However when I ring out the engine a little (I'd say anything over 5k revs really), the sense of mechanical sympathy in me comes out, because it really starts to increase the unnatural 'vibration' I can feel from the engine, or transmission or something. I know that peak torque on these cars arrives just before 5k and so I guess there isn't massive point in taking it beyond that. But taking it into redline territory is not something that this engine seems to enjoy. Question: is this a totally normal 350z experience, for an unmodified car (except for induction and backbox)? Or should I be looking closer at my engine mounts or transmission mounts or something? cheers - hard problem to explain, but something just doesn't feel 100% 'right' DR Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G1en Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 I can only speak for my HR but there isnt any change when i go above 5k revs which is everytime i take it out as only drive it every other weekend. Dont know what your issue may be, someone will be able to offer advice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZMANALEX Posted February 25, 2017 Share Posted February 25, 2017 Should rev to red line without any vibrations. Get it looked at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
