Listen, i love the 370. Clearly, i bought one. but I'm also not delusional. If u think this MT couldn't use a little work (a corvette isn't exactly the industry standard in tranismissions either) then u are drinking the kool-aid a little too much. go drive ANY manual... try sticking it in first at 15mph then report back,
And burnouts don't kill synchros. jamming into first at speed does.

Dude, driving it 'wrong' huh? Didn't know you were an automotive authority on how to drive a manual. But I'll drive my manuals the way I want. Been doin' it for 40 years. Funny, never had a manual fail yet. Back on topic. Gear oil doesn't jam gears as the op is describing and the mt is pretty stout for the Z and shifts good if your an 'authority', lol, like me. Oh, ten easy steps. That's for girls, dude. Can't you tell the difference? Report back when you do.
