Hi

Does anyone know how much the transmission losses (%) are in a 350z? I've heard it is around 15-17%. Does anyone know more information?

Thanks for any help.

 

Over 9000

 

Nine-Thooooooouuuuusaaaand?!?!?

 

I can haz serious.

 

Im not worried about what gets lost. Just concentrate on what gets the the rear tires.

 

Yet another load of helpful members.

I believe it's around what you mentioned, obviously depending on your clutch condition, the quality of the oil in your gearbox etc...

 

64%


What you heard was wrong.

 

Seriously, if you're new member and you ask a question you either get ridiculed or ignored. Yesterday in the CD009 thread, which a couple of spaces down from this one, I asked if it had lower gear ratios than the trans in the 07-08 Zs, because I thought I heard something like that, and if it will fit 07 350Z, but there's no answer . I mean its not like its one of those questions that someones makes a thread for every week. How do these people expect this community to grow if they don't want to help other people get more knowledgeable.

 

Drivetrain loss for the AT is 8-10%.

 

What about 6 speed manual transmission?

 

On average, 6mt non-revup's dyno in the 230rwhp range DJ. Let's just say 235rwhp. That's for the 287hp motor. You figure about 18% loss.

 

..

 

My 8-10% number is in addition to what the MT loses. For example: A guy with the exact same mods as I had put down 425whp(6MT) and I put down 390whp(5AT) on the same dyno,same conditions, same everything.

 

its a forum, theres gonna be all that nonsense, but eventually you'll get an accurate answer..just gotta be patient lol. as for the cd009, it wont fit with the 07+hr, the transmission is different

coach k and tranceformers numbers are right about drivetrain loss
