Yes, that is correct. I think he may have the fastest N/A and FI 370 so far. Not counting some super stripped down just for racing, never drives on the street one.

ps: what the hell are you doing still up?

I think I've seen one or two FI times that were faster than his. Z eliminator is at 12.42 with his 7 AT.

I'm enjoying my first day off from classes and I have nothing to do tomorrow

KaienZ34 · 05-12-2011, 01:45 AM

Ok cool, yeah jnaut has something like 12.2

Z eliminator · 05-12-2011, 07:21 AM

I data loged the the 7 AT in the 12.42 run.
I have the time that i actually shifted at and when it engaged the gear
Launched at 2500 rpm.
1st to 2nd 6400, 1.13 sec
2nd engaged at 5237, shift time 0.3 seconds
2nd to 3rd @ 7475 , 1.5 sec.
3rd engaged at 5237 , shift time 0.31 seconds
3rd to 4th @ 7712 , 2.9 sec.
4th engaged at 5525, shift time 0.39 seconds
4th to 5th @ 7700, 5.15 seconds
5th engaged at 5587, shift time 0.68 seconds
5th to 1320 ft. @ 5812, 1.74 second.

This is with the stock preasure settting on the 7 AT with 4.08 gears.
the only bad lag is 4th to 5th. " so you still think that you can out shift me with a 6 MT "
All reading taken with the cobb. ( elasped time vs rpm )
i am going to have my transmsion fluid checked next week as to make sure that it is full.
as it is very hard to fill it after i had the torque converter changed, this will be the 4th time that we are checking it and each time we are adding more fluid to it. It makes a big diference for the 4th to 5th shift time.
Talked to Sam about this and he is sending me an uprev tunner cable so that i can increase the clutch preasures.
i also short shifted 1st gear, did not take it to 7800 rpm.
there are faster times in this car.
I have not not trouble racing guys with stick shifts. The only thing that beat me out of the hole was a dodge hemi 4 wheel drive jeep. ( unbelivably fast) but i ran him down at the finish.
I gave many corvettes a good run as they were all behind me at the 1/8th mile.
My 60 ft times where 1.855
330 ft @ 5.22
1/8th @ 8.020
Mph 1/8 @ 88.83
1000 ft @ 10.410
1/4 @ 12.42
trap 114.39

It should be noted that the factory tack is out by 250 to 300 rpm (8300 on the tack = 8100 cobb. redline is set for 8100 and it will hit 8300 and redline. Not sure waht the error is at 7500 rpm.

I shift in the MM mode, its way quicker than being in " D "

Just think what a VB upgrade will do for the 7 AT
If we can reduce the lag by 50% in the 4th to 5thth gear change this car would go easy 12.0, to 12.2's.
I must tell you guys that the track prep was perfect as it was glued for 1000 ft. there were no traction issues at all.
My GTM stage 2 SC is all most done, a few more weeks as he is dynoing it very soon on somebodys car at his shop.
can not wait to see what 460 or more rwhp will run at the track.

holy ****! Nissan only claims .5 sec, these are great times!

Z eliminator · 05-12-2011, 04:27 PM

The reason that I am in 5th gear is that i have 4.08 gears in the diff. The factory diff is 3.33.
First and 2nd gear are just a blur. I also have 305 35 18 M/T drag radials on the car and i run them at 23 lb's of air. the traction is perfect on a prepaired drag strip. If the track has not been prepaired then they spin in the 1st to 2nd and 2nd to 3rd shift's

I never understood this debate. I hate when people just sit here and talk about how they bought the automatic cause it was faster. Like .2 seconds really makes a difference in your everyday driving. If I was going for a straight drag car and that was it's only purpose then I would of went automatic but for being daily driven the 6mt is much more fun in my opinion. For somebody to sit here and say the 6mt is garbage because it's .2 seconds slower is ignorant I think.

I have NEVER SAID I bought the 7AT because its faster. I bought it THE DAY the 370 came out....so no one really knew. I dont drive my 370 every day and IT IS MOSTLY FOR DRAG RACING. Your statement "for being daily driven the 6mt is much more fun" is your opinion and I disagree......tell me that in traffic.

And where did I say that YOU said that. I was just stating what I've read in other threads and people's general opinions they post up. You seem to only value your opinion anyways so what's it matter. Obviously everything is going to have it's pros and cons. And yeah, if you read my post I stated it was only my opinion but thanks for justifying. Again, for being DAILY DRIVEN a 6mt is more enjoyable in my opinion. Where I live and for my daily drive I don't encounter traffic at all so I have a blast. Again it is only my opinion and if I still lived in CT I would agree that the AT is more practical. No need to get offended.

Jamaica · 05-12-2011, 10:13 PM

if you lived in so cal with hours of traffic then you would understand....there is no way to avoid traffic.

I've never even been there and I understand lol. I feel so bad for you guys that get caught in rush hour out there. That would drive me up a wall, and yes I would be begging for an automatic if I did have to deal with that lol.

KaienZ34 · 05-12-2011, 11:51 PM

I've had both the 6MT and 7AT 370 at the sametime. They both have pros and cons, the 7 was faster at the track mostly because it was easier for me to launch. This is a personal preference thing and there really isn't any reason to fight about it. I ultimately sold the 6MT, but it was because the wife refused to learn how to drive it and she pays the bills. IMO 6 more fun on open roads, 7 easier period.

Enjoy what you have and don't worry about proving whether or not its better than what others have.
