modifying an automatic...

Z eliminator

Let the truth be known " the Z can not drive a stick "
or drive a road course with the Z
Buy give me a 1/4 mile at the track and 7 AT in MM.
A match made in heaven.

Just wait till I get the 4.2 from GTM and go for the N/A, 1/4 mile time with bolt on's.
The stock 7 AT will be back in the car for this,
11.85's coming soon.
It does not matter if its a 7 AT or a 6 MT , We all drive 370Z's
and that's all that counts.

ok so it's obvious which side of the arguement i'm backing but......

which ever side you're on, 6MT or 7AT, i will say this: you cannot deny (if you've tried one) the fact that the 7AT that the 370 uses is an amazing set-up. i've driven many other "sports" cars with similar power/engines with paddle shiftable autos and they are garbage. recently picked up a 2013 camaro with the V6 and auto tranny to flip. tried the paddles and it was awful. it would take 2-3 seconds to shift at high rpm's and going down a gear sucked as well. been in a few other sporty cars with paddles or slap sticks and the story is the same.

in the end if you've ever tried a 7AT Z they you realize how amazing the set-up is and how well it works.

so for the sake that we drive the same car and the car has one of the greatest auto-manual transmissions, i say you 6MT superior idiots just let it go. can we just enjoy the fact that our car as a whole is superior to others?

lets stop beating the dead horse already and move on as a community.......to go and make fun of ricers and FR-S/BR-Z owners.

AT is for people that cant drive.
MT is for poor people.

I love MT but have a modded AT.

Rational: when drinking and 'should not drive' that leaves my fiance at the wheel who cannot drive a MT. I have been stuck places many times with a car that we cannot drive to get home. Very frustrating.

So now all I buy is AT so she can drive when Im not able too.

Also, I'm not sure if I would ever buy an MT again. My modded out ZR thus far has been far superior then many coupe MT on the dyno with the mods that I have.

Dont get me wrong- driving a MT is fun for a few minutes. It gives you that race car feel for sure. But Atlanta traffic and long distances I would rather have a AT.

just my .02

you do wat you need to do. my 3 cars are all MT and dd is MT. i personally think MT is easier to drive in congestion vs AT.

7at>6mt

So everybody's back to "the one I bought>the other one"? Isn't that the case with everything?
