Lol seriously. I'd be willing to bet half of you guys can't even keep up with an auto z.
And to the genius's dissing the manumatic mode; have you ever even been in an auto z?
I'd guess not. They shift pretty damn hard.
Tiptronic mode is not a bad idea as I'm pretty sure the ecu increases the solenoid shift pressure when in the "manual" mode, making the shifts a little faster and a little easier on the tranny (less time inbetween shifts=harder shifts, quicker/harder shifts means less clutch pack wear).
I swear manual people can be so foolish. There's a good reason thx00's rule the drag scene
+1 on the valvebody kit+reflash. Add in a plenum spacer and nice exhaust and you will seriously love your car. Wouldn't be a bad idea to do a grounding kit while you're at it, I know my Z had more than a few 'forgotten' shift imputs, I believe I read somewhere it's a grounding issue. But I don't need to worry about that anymore; when the motor goes back in it will have a good old cd009 attached to it.

HAHAHA NOOB, yeah right bro. Driven dozens of high speed cars, street and track. Just got my HR two months ago but def not a noob,,, and yeah I have driven a G35 coupe with manumatic mode as you refer to it. I dont care what you say the ECU still has way way to much control ever heard of torque management ....UNLIKE in my non ECU controlled, non traction controlled, non dynamic stability controlled 6spd HR. QUAILFE LSD and its good to go!!!

For instance an auto can not launch from a dig,(to clarify this is when you start very quickly from a standstill in a drag race),,can you? I can drop the clutch at 4 k and romp off the line with sticky tires and the right degree of skill. An auto can not do that. simple

I don't think I've ever in my whole life wanted to "launch from a dig", whatever that means. I guess it's a good thing it wasn't on the Man Card test when I got mine.

Drag cars, yes auto is usually better, who wants to drag race a sports car, kinda boring.

I say the Tip Tronic is faster..but the MT are wayy fun...
In my personal experience, when i do my take offs i slap it into the TipTronic gate and hold my brake and bring my revs up to 2k and let go of the brakes and smash my gas...ill see my rev speedometer reach around 6800 and then ill shift up..by that time the speedometer shows that it reach 7000 by the time it shifts..if i left it in Automatic and watch the rev meter it shows it shift at exactly 6800.
