My time was from 2006 you idiot. First time out EVER on a ST setup launching easy I still run faster. What happened to your glorious auto setup? Why is it slower with more power and a better 60ft?


Ive let off the gas in 2007 and run 11.1, big freaking deal.

It's not a better 60' idk where you got that from. 300hp 500hp a car without the proper setup won't b able to launch regardless. Hence
My next mod being a tranny upgrade to put the power to the ground and run 11's..

You said you ran 12.2 with a 1.93

I ran 11's with a $hitty 1.97 short time.

What the fawk dont you understand about that?

This proves that the MT is faster because a car with less power and a slower 60ft is .3 quicker down the 1/4 and traps higher than you.

Ok bud. I said what I had to say, again I'm not here to dominate or talk about who has got the fastest car. I'm just reinforcing the kids question whether he should
Mod his Z.

You have all your car info online, yet nothing to prove that 12.2 slip. For the record, if it looks like, and smells like $hit.....

Baha, I have to agree, where is the slip, and if this guy has 400 whp, he should be rrunning faster than a 12. 2 @ 114 !!

Stop the name calling, I am surprised this thread isnt locked yet.....



The 5AT is better than most slush box trans out there.... as far as modding it well that is up to you...

Now calling people names and saying crap like you just cant drive and your lazy and that you are an idiot thats why you bought an auto serves no purpose to helping this thread along.


As for 6MT on the 370Z's there is a car with full bolt-ons running 12.3 and the fastest 7AT is running 12.6 so saying that there isnt good MT drivers that own a 370z or that no one who can shift good has driven one is not a correct statement.... Stock for stock no matter who is driving the MT the Auto is faster with a competent driver behind the Auto.

You can just make a blanket statement based off of a couple cars, in terms of slushbox autos , no matter what the vehicle the manual should always be faster than the auto with a good driver, those are just the facts, if you go on almost any car board you will see stock for stock manuals are faster than the autos , the 370 is an anomaly, not enough manual drivers have put them through the paces yet.

A slushbox is a slushbox is a slush box , it does not matter what the car is, if its not a dct, or something similar its not going to beat a comparable manual with a good drivert

I didnt.....I Never said it was for all cars that was in my statement talking about the 370Z, in a rebuttal to a previous comment that was made about them.


I agree the majority of Autos Vs Man. will result in the MT winning in a race... But that doesnt mean you cant mod the auto and still be a fellow enthusiast.

I agree nothing wrong with an auto/modding autos whatever, in fact the big dog drag racers are usually modded autos, but I still believe there isn't enough data on the 370z yet to make a case that the auto is faster, time will tell I guess
