Been around for a while, Furlow. And simply nuts that Infiniti didn't implement it in their G. You would think being a "luxury" brand, they they would have all the toys. Particularly the ones that do things for you.

Yeah I found a video after asking, looks pretty cool. Would be awesome in our 6MT's. My next manual will have this lol.

I was driving with this on my brother in law's new Camaro SS, and it is pretty sweet. I haven't driven a manual car for years and it had me feeling like a pro. One thing you learn pretty quick is that with this on, you can't do that neutral left-right wiggle on the shifter. As soon as you have the clutch in and move left at speed, it engine brakes HARD to make it do you can match in the next lowest gear.

Realistically, have you ever had an instance where the car wasn't in neutral and you thought it was. This shifter side to side shuffle is a mental thing. Just a bit of behavior change and it's all good.

I thought this was funny...

As some of you know, I've traded in my G for a 370Z recently. Well, the dealer has posted my car up for sale, and actually used some of the photos I'd sent them before trading the car, to show the parts I'd installed. They've actually posted those pics on their site, along with the last one clearly showing my vampire toes!

I don't think they'll get the price they're looking for...

hey John!
Sorry, I didn't think it appropriate to keep posting pics of the Z in here.
I've added my first mod!! I replaced the rear reflector with an actual light from iJDMToy.

Now that's pretty cool. I didn't even know that was a thing. And an added back-up light, too! Wow!

You should definately keep posting stuff about your Z. I can't speak for the whole G community, but I suspect a Nismo Z is something we all respect.

Thanks John!!

That light definitely helps while backing into my garage. I'm not sure why Nissan didn't provide it as an option. Though, I'm glad someone had the foresight to create it!
I'll be sure to post some pics when I get back from Tae Kwon Do tonight!
