So spend 20k to get a stable 7AT TT 370z is still acceptable in this country. But the point is, 20k is enough for to make a stable 7AT TT Z? I afraid I have to pay like 25k or even 30k to get a AT TT 370z. That's too much for me. Although it's acceptable(20k) but still lot of $. So I just want to ask for opinions.

I do wanna try 7AT because my evo9 and dc5r are both manual, I really want to grab a 7AT this time especially many 370 owner said 370z's 7AT is a amazing stuff.
68K for a Z?!?! brand new ones here you can get for like 40k loaded lol

anyways $20k TT kit and highly upgraded transmission for a 7AT should be plenty powerful and stable. there actually is someone who purchased that specific tranny i mentioned recently. they havent added any forced induction just yet but are in the process of it soon. i'm sure once they do it and share results it will become more popular. i'm guessing most people are like me and cant pull the trigger on a $7800 transmission upgrade when no one has really tested its limits or potential yet.

i'm guessing it should be able to hold up to a stage 2 TT kit but like i said no one has really put it through its paces yet.

also as for you're interest in buying a 7AT Z i'd say go for it. i have driven many 6MT Z's prior to me buying mine but the first time i drove the 7AT version i was sold.
