I will $hit on your transgo or whatever brand VB you have. Listening to even a "fast" TQ converter auto shift fast sounds like a slow retarded powershift from outside the car.

Not happening without DSG/DCT. as long as a torque converter is present....even with your vb upgrade it's not going to cut it when referring to shift times.

Keith of course I remember the pep Boys meet and I know your car well and recall how it shifts, BUT it pales in comparison to a clean 6MT shift. Put me in 6MT G35 with the same power or slightly less than you and watch me run away...

Probably just me and Derrick, but I'll throw it out there in case any others want to roll.

LOL

I once looked at dog gears for the Z, so I could legit no clutch shift it. The price was absurd. In the future, I may retire the car for street use and make it a dedicated drag car. The tranny wont last long in that environment lol

Funny I was looking at a vid of a guy with dog gears in a vette, looks almost too easy. I guess it's like 20k for the gearbox? Add another 5k just because it's a Z??? LOL

The more the merrier.


Oh and I may possibly bring Franky65.

>_>;; But I may have to rethink that because I don't want epic arguing to occur.
