having owned a fast road auto and now a manual 300zx i find the manual box rubbish, its notchy not very precise and now the dump valves going off every 2 seconds pisses me off.

my FR auto would kill my manual every day of the week.

2 different clutches in mine and its still shite.

Thats what i was up to in a rainy sainsbury's Chiswick carpark last week :D

If only you could switch between both, then everybody would be happy. :D

If i had the money i'd get the paddle shift for the auto box for selecting each gear and also locking up the torque convertor :hyper:

 

 

;) :D

i've only driven 3 ZED's 2 manual and 1 auto, and i think the manual is good box 1 of the best i've used. i think better than 350Z

Now i should say that i LIKE auto car's but in the 300zx i found the kickdown too slow and the change up too late (my 15year old Carlton is MUCH better)

as i said i like auto's in fact my next car will be auto, BUT it wont be an auto ZED.

 

The Auto's in Carlton are probally the best Autos i have driven allthough my old 2.0's were smoother than my old and current 2.6's

Change the Title then LOL. ;)

:slap: Well maybe i will smart ass.... :tongue: :tongue:

Real men drive manuals :x:
