I leave it on. It doesn't effect my daily driving at all.

Track and canyons may be a different story.

I rarely turn my VDC off, Nissan designed it for our cars why not use it?

I drive with it on only because it always reverts to on when I start up my car.

If I could, i'd leave it off permanently.

it also makes you look like a star if you overcook it, in the rain, in a corner or the ramps on highways

I start my car, and push the VDC button to turn it off. It's become habit.

Latly i've been leaving it off because my tires are pretty much gone & I don't wanna get new ones till I lower my car & get my camber back in spec & it's been raining this week so when ever I try to drive my rear kicks out & if VDC is on then it tries to fix it & the car jerks like crazy and it's un controllable I feel much safer and in controll when it's off.

I leave mine on almost all the time unless I'm screwing around. Mine never kicks in anyways on the roads except when I hit the gas hard from a dig or chirp second gear.

I leave it on for normal driving and turn it off for full throttle runs in gears 1,2 and 3.
