zaiduk Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 Hi chaps, had my 08 350z for a few weeks now and finding it difficult to adjust to the throttle pedal. Anyone else have the same issue? Its only ever a problem when moving off, especially if a bit rushed, it seems like you only have to breathe on the pedal and it dials up 3K RPM! Never had an issue before from Monaro VXR's to M3's, ie similar sports cars. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rtbiscuit Posted April 6, 2010 Share Posted April 6, 2010 heavy foot try putting the air con on smooths out the idle and makes pull aways a little smoother Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zaiduk Posted April 6, 2010 Author Share Posted April 6, 2010 As far as I can tell its totally stock, AC always on. Heavy foot, possibly, lol. I was considering if its because the M3 had a floor hinged pedal instead of the 350's arrangement but it does seem very sensitive generally, ie I reckon <1 inch of travel causes it to dial up 3k when at a standstill.
