Half of you guys have driven cars on a race track and do any kind of racing and yet you talk about lags. Go check the development history of transmissions

Your just posers and ricers.

I'm impressed that my troll comments have made such an impression on a few members.

But quite honestly we're talking about 6MT vs 5AT, Not Z vs lambo. Why don't we all get off that **** now.

there's no comparison when it comes down to putting power to the ground. 5AT has more parasitic loss and less gears even with a valve upgrade. A 6MT with a decent driver will beat a 5AT at the strip making the same power (even to the wheels). It's not too crazy of a concept.

If you want to compare comfort in stop and go traffic, 5AT wins. There you go.

Maybe posting a pic of my 6MT shifter will convince Waldo, since that was his only bit of "proof".



There. That should do it. Thread closed.

Default what ever you want

what i would suggest would be a manual, but in the long run it is your money go what ever you feel comfortable with.

*story time
i once knew a guy who accidentally downshift to 1st gear with a auto on the highway ...... so he says




people who drive auto seems not to be as smart as people who drive manual ...joke

does a gtr have a torque converter? does a GTR transmission automatic transmission clutch packs and bands? does the gtr transmission have a front pump to regulate pressure? exactly so shut the **** up just because your a idiot and have no idea what a dual clutch transmission is dosnt mean its magically automatic. IT DOES NOT HAVE ANYTHING IN COMMON WITH A AUTOMATIC your a ****ing clown go jump off a bridge while on fire.

show me one of those GTM transmissions that has actually held up, theres a reason GTM wont show there face around here anymore should i go get links to the ones that have blown up?

no lift shift shows even further you have NO ****ING experience building **** and are just spouting off random *** numbers from what a shop quotes, no lift shift you set the rpm jackass, my redline rev limiter is 7500, no lift shift holds it at 6k nice try shove one of your dick beaters down your throat and choke dumb ****.

curb weight is wrong, how about you quote same models not a higher model 6mt to base 5at **** stain and the 5AT has a lighter rear diff

edit how about this, those super cars you comment about having "automatics" do they have gears inside them? **** yes they do, do automatic transmissions? **** no they dont they have drums, bands and clutch packs that all grip each other using fluid not direct engagement gears case closed **** off

GTM built 350z AT (http://gtmotorsports.com/product.php...cat=262&page=1)
Built 370Z AT, and if the stage is rated over 600rwhp, I'm sure this rated over 650rwhp (http://gtmotorsports.com/product.php...cat=262&page=1)

Why would I want to keep spinning through 1st-4th?

No Lift Shifting: redlining the **** of your engine each shift, NICE! This makes sense since our engines peak around 6200-6300.

2003 MT curb weight 3247; AT curb weight 3239...AT is heavier? (http://autos.yahoo.com/nissan/350z/2...fications.html)

do yourself a favor and read and quit posting since you have been shown up by people who actually build cars and have had the **** your talking about torn apart and worked on it. http://www.howstuffworks.com/dual-cl...ansmission.htm
Nhra pro stock license.

Hmmm, why is that a big deal?

Talk to me after you have done some international pro racing, until then you are no match.

I have it too. No big deal. Not too difficult to get. Many have it. Nothing to brag about it.

Man, this has got to be one of the stupidest threads ever on this site. And, honestly, I feel like a huge idiot for even getting involved and arguing with a 17-year old.
Finally I agree with you. Yes you are a huge idiot.

heres a secret of life, if a bunch of people say one individual is an idiot but only a couple of people say they are idiots, chances are good the majority is correct. in this instance its shown both you and your butt buddys are 1) wrong, 2)never worked on a car, 3) 17 year old kids pretending like they know what they are talking about 4) ****ing retarded and the majority is agreeing

hell show a single instance of a auto out performing the same level car in manual. as its already been said the ONLY reason anyone uses auto's in drag is for consistency not speed, the unlimited classes use manual lencos and similar with air shifters and dog ring box's. lemme guess those are automatics too because you dont need to use the clutch? ****ing retarded douche

Correction:

I meant both of you are huge idiots.

And unlike you I didnt sink my money into Z, there are other cars in the garage.

douche that cant admit he was wrong so resorted to insults and made up information like we wouldnt notice he was trying to completely avoid anything on the subject the entire thread was about. the ONLY cars ive heard good things about the autos is the frs/brz and porsche, and in both cases the manual is till the better choice they just arnt as shitty as most cars.

its like trying to argue with blower people, some people apparently just love to pay for 800 whp and only get 600 and look like retards.

oh yes your yugo and escort are so impressive ***** please you dont have **** and arnt **** my previous comment sum's it completely up you dont have a single clue what your talking about.

you call me the idiot but try and talk about how autos are somehow superior to manuals despite holding less max power(the 6mt holds 1200 hp stock) and posting slower times, try and claim how a auto and dual clutch manual are the same thing(**** they have MANUAL in the name!), and then go on about how a guy that builds his own **** and has better reliability then most shops knows less then you who cant even put a bike togeather? please anyone reading this can easily identify the glowing side over your head even if you cant see it

that requires a optional package to beat the 6mt and blows up when you try to up the power on the car more then 20% best check your **** its ok for stock and thats ****ing it and the manuals drive better then the auto. shows you have never stepped foot in one theres a reason porsche had to completely redesign it for the new GT3

at least your *** pirate lover had enough sense to quit posting after it clicked he was wrong instead of trying to make up excuses.

What an amazing display of ignorance. While I could educate you on the topic, I am just going to let you shine on it.

Seems like you havent driven a gt3, let alone owning one.
