I was saying that the 5at is a fake manual and the 6mt is a true manual.

No, you were being a jerk. There are enough 6MT elitists here spouting off nonsense about how inferior the 5AT is, when in fact very little is lost between the two. Besides, your response had absolutely nothing to do with the question the original poster asked, which was a comparison of wheel HP between the two transmissions.

The 5AT isn't a fake anything. It's an automatic transmission with a manual MODE. Nobody, including Nissan, claims it's anything else but that.
