I'm curious as to how crazy auto guys get with modding their Z's. Seems like all the mad modders are manual guys. Are there people who have modded the p!ss out of their auto's. I'm not talking about the ones with 22" spiners but performance mods.

 

lol..how many AT drivers are on here anyway? poll?

 

I can think of 5 boosted 5ATs off the top of my head.
Myself, canadian, roneski, coachk, booger. There are 5ATs with mods out there, just look around.

 

Unless I sell my Z (for a 911T) I will be FI within the next year. Right now I have cams/headers/cats/borla TD/Intake/emanage(may be going UTEC? dunno yet maybe Osiris)/Lowered/PIAA/sways/ rear diff swapped/TK bumper/CF hood/Matergrade hatch/ with more planned... that is unless I sell it.

 

I have 5at in my car, in some ways i like it being auto some times i
don't, but in regards to mods i have headers, hfcs, y-pipe, exhaust
popcharger, carbon fiber intake tube, 5/16 iso-thermal spacer kit
slotted rotors, upgraded pads, ss lines, fluids etc..
going to do computer, grounding kit, sun auto cyber voltage kit
optima battery within next few months

 

I have the greddy twins and a whole lot more.

 

i'm more interested in mod'ing the exterior...i have a plenum, popcharger, pullies and high flow cats in my garage that i haven't installed yet. i also plan to do cams in the futre...if i don't sell the car for a gtr

 

I prefer manual over a/t, more throttle response...even though there isn't that much of a differece from a 0-60 pull. IMO its easier to control your shifts around a track in a manual than in a manu-matic. plus, i get bored easlily w/ AT's. i dont know, just my 2 cents.

I've got a few mods , but it's a G.

 

My 5AT goes very very fast........

me too

In the end, it doesn't matter if it's a manual or auto. Both have their strengths and weaknesses and it's all up to the driver's preference

CAVZ33, your sig makes my eyes hurt

 

working on mine..just tint and s2k at the moment. The payment every month is whats stopping me at the moment

 

im mostly concerned with the visual appearance of my auto right now
later on i will be able to afford serious performance mods but will also have the money for a new Z
and when that time comes
im gettin me a manual :]

 

I have a 5AT..only mods are Plenum spacer and pop charger..video of mine here.

just plenum spacer, hfc's, and a drop-in...still slow...but kinda lost at this point.

 

why should it matter if the 5AT guys mod or not? this sounds just like another one of those auto vs manual threads.

 

i must say in regular auto-mode it does suck around road course but when
in manual mode when i can control the revs and have one less foot to
worry about its actually pretty good, only downside is after about 6-8 laps
it starts to heat up and not want to manually downshift on first/second
try of pulling gearshift-kind of disrupts my focus in braking zone and turn-in
i am going to try some Royal Purple Max ATF real soon and see how that
does, if not trans cooler is next step

 

You must just be aching to start ****. I never said it mattered.


Read into it whatever you want. Was a simple question ya bed wetter.
