My very first z was a z32 twin turbo had the 90 and 1991 model. Loved it my 1991 had over 400hp and stock z32 TT also came with a recirculating valve but I switch mine to a HKS SSQV. I still remember my mods had twin popchargers from JWT, nismo 555cc injectors, JWT eprom chip, Z1 driveshaft, Hicas removal kit, custom top speed exhaust, MBC, and stillen intercoolers. I still think the z32 is one of the best Z out there. I’ve owned three 350z (de) and a couple of g37 coupes and sedan as well as the q50 (vhr) I love my q60rs400 now and can’t wait to get my hands on the new Z. With these inflations and stuff I will rather wait.

I'm a 2-time VQ owner. If my assumption is correct, then the new Z also has the same TSC setup as the G37/370Z. You CAN turn TSC off, but there's a kind of "hidden" yaw sensor control hidden in the console (easily bypassed).

Most modern cars that have a 'Traction off' feature usually have a hidden function to completely turn it off: In most cars you usually have to simply hold down the Traction off button for about 8 seconds and it should show something regarding "Advanced traction off" on the display cluster. If that is not the way to do it, a simple google search should do it or even looking in the car's manual.

Great video review of the new Z. Really gave a good feel for what the car is like. I'm impressed with it, but I still think the Supra just looks better and seems higher-end, as is reflected in the price. And as you said, the Supra is underrated from a power standpoint, and overall seems to perform a little better than the Z. I think I'd likely lean toward the Supra.

We run those car’s like race cars for years made a killing with them. If you drove like we did back then now you wouldn’t make it a day. To many cars on the road now!
