There does tend to be a slight pause when the accelerator is pressed in order to move the vehicle from standstill. This is probably due to the fly-by-wire gas pedal (ECT-i Electronically Controlled Throttle - with intelligence). I would like to know if other LS400's with ECTi suffer from this.

Search on down to a thread by Chas Fenwick on this very issue. They all have the pause, it goes away mostly when the transmission learns your shift patterns. Unhook the battery to reset the computer then drive the car hard. ECT PWR also helps.
