Transmission?

370z2 · 01-28-2009, 10:48 PM

Anyone have any concerns about the Zs tranny? I mean with the tranny in the GTR going so wrong and all, its kinda a concern in the back of my mind!

Look at how all of the GTR trannys have been treated. Theres you're easy break in quota right there. Drive responsibly gradually push your engine harder and she will pull harder every time.

No launch control = longer life!

I dont have any major concerns... the GT-R has problems b/c of the Launch Control feature..... gives it a beating...... the standard transmission has been around on the G's already....no real problems heard... the 7AT is fairly new....

the two cars tranmissions are completely unrelated. after the 2003 synchro issue their transmissions have been pretty good

370z2,

which transmission....MT or AT ???

MC · 01-28-2009, 11:11 PM

the Z's manual. the 7AT is supposed to be good to its already in a few others cars and is doing well

im just saying the last thing you guys need to do is in any way compare anything going on with the GTRs dual clutch tranmissions to anything related to the 370 AT or MT

^^ yea..i know.............just wanted to know more about what the OP is referring to

Ehhh the tires slip on the Z first before the tranny goes

Unless you are driving like a buffoon. Its the load on the AWD system and the 480hp the motor is pushing out that is killing the GTR trannys...

totally different tranny.. you have nothing to worry about.

As far as I've been able to find out, the 7AT is the same tranny that is in the Infinity FX50. The FX50 has 390 HP. The big beotch about the 350's 5AT tranny was that it couldn't take too much power. Seems to be cured with the new 7AT.
