auto= no go never ever................epic fail...

let us see why:

- Why are you looking for performance you bought an automatic z if you were wanting performance you would have gotten yourself a manual
- i still dont know why they make automatic z's they kinda of bother me for such a sports coupe that is made to be driven hard but i guess for daily drivers its okay
-as i said again manual vs automatic.......manual will always and i mean always beat an automatic in performance..so i dunno why you got an automatic if your looking to outperform a manual z your not.

a/t works just fine.

just be careful when racing it during track days. 15mins of hard lapping causes the a/t to generate too much heat especially when you always hit the redline!
use the manual o/d to shift earlier so that you can give time for the tranny to cool down.

in case you didnt know OP, due to the weight reduction of the manual vs. auto, you can gain anywhere from 40-50 whp! its true, i seen it on the "WHY DO PEOPLE ASK DUMBA*S QUESTIONS BEFORE SEARCHING CHANNEL" must be trolling through....
