    This morning I had a strange experience with my Z.

    At the traffic lights, noticed the following -

    - stereo headunit powered off.. (Thought it died).
    - A few seconds later I noticed my exhaust burped for one beat as if its going to stall or its slightly missing.
    - At same time my tacho went spastic and immediately did a number of non stop high speed fluctuations between 0 and typical idle rpm 700 or 800rpm
    - RPM movement was accompanied by a almost buzzing sound directly behind the dash. Not sure if its the actual sound of the RPM needle going spastic or a relay behind there doing tricks. Sounds like a mechanical buzzer.
    - Car Stalled.

    I thought crap, startup car again. Radio back on everything okay.

    At crusing speed everything okay. Then next lights same thing at idle.

    I just pulled over to nearest safest street to park and caught bus to work.

    About 3 months ago I noticed only 2 times a loud backfire noise coming from my Z sounded like a shotgun.. I hasn't happened since I guess that one would be the CAS connector or CAS itself. Not sure if related to this mornings issue.

    Any ideas ?
