What does it matter how many I've gone thru?
Do YOU or the OP race a 500+whp car past its limits? I dont think you do. That is irrelevant. |

there is something to be said about shifting a couple of times in a turn (not before or after) at full thottle with S7 in the Z.

LOL, How many transmissions have you gone through? I'm still on my first... :rolleyes:
Transmissions fail under heavy abuse... I doubt yours even comes close to being comparable to Albertos. |
I think some people aren't understanding the whole paddle shift, wave of the future thing.
Paddle shift, Dual Clutch tranny - best tranny you can get, faster shifting than a manual Manual - no explanation necessary Paddle shift automatic - a regular old automatic that has paddles instead of "D4", "D3", etc. |

It's not your Dad's old slushbox anymore. The only reason I considered owning one. Everyday, I love this car that much more. |

meaning shifting 2 seconds before you want it to?
theres not much learning needed, you hit a paddle, it thinks, it shifts. You cant make it better. Maybe its just my car and every other one ive driven but someone above said their G shifts the same way now people are saying autos with paddles takes learning and skill? :suicide: I have both (G37 7at and a 370z 7at) and no they don't shift the same way................As for the rest of the statement hummmm Most people use the paddles once or twice, never really figure out how to use them and go back to auto mode.............. |

yes, there is something to be said about that. why would you want to shift a couple of times in a turn? you should be downshifting before a turn into the right gear, maintaining speed/rpms where you comfortably can through the turn, then rocketing out of the corner's exit
All that I can say now is you guys should spend a week or two with the S7 then you'll understand. |

You can compression brake going into a turn in a lower gear and double snap the upshift coming out. Best of both worlds. Saves brakes and allow you to come out of the set faster.

Tired of all the AT vs MT posts. :icon22:
OP, I think you have the answer to your question. /THREAD |
