Message	That is not normal maybe for a FD but not a Z. I have seen Z's that smoke (Black) when hitting the higher RPMs because of richness. If your Z smokes when you start it up it means that you turbos are becoming worn. Also remember what the cats are for to collect the unburned fuel from the motor that is way they are need for emission.
