Sound from Z with 7spd auto w/ mod exhaust

I think The op thinks the sounds are different between the two tranny because people with a manual tends to shift gear at a higher rpm which equals to a louder sound. And the people that drives with D, automatically shifts at a lower gear = almost no sound.

Well my hfc + hks is a bit on the quiet side when I drive on D in hot weather but when I'm on manual mode, you better put on some ear plugs.

Well I could understand that... but then again, thats something you should understand when you buy a 7AT. And that's what the Manual mode is there for. To allow you the control to shift when you want... I mean, this is sort of a common sense thing when you talk about the different trannys..

That's what I was thinking. Never thought about the exhaust sound with the auto till recently. Chose auto because I've been driving manual trans over 25 yrs. Even my URD supercharged Tacoma is manual. Getting old.
