Well I haven't been here in a while since putting the deposit on my GTR. I figured that I would stop by and saw this thread...Solopresident is right on the money you car went into what is called "limp home mode" Something had to trigger it. I suggest that you go to the dealer and have it scanned and have them reset the ECU there. You know since there are alot of you G37 folks I would suggest forming small groups and purchasing the Nissan Consult III and share it among your group of people. I am sure someone like GTM could show you were to get one for a good price. Good to see everyone hanging in here! I will be lurking from time to time. Keep up the good posts folks!

when my car is sitting in neutral and i rev up at 1.6k up to 3-4k while the rpm needle is dropping from a previous rev.. the car bogs, shakes and the exhaust makes a funny sound. is this a problem or does everyone's 6spd g37 do this?
