Is there much diffrence between the auto and the manual performance with the 300zx TT.
Whats the 0-60 times with auto and manual?
do they both do 155mph topend?
Trust me you want nothing less then the manual! I don't remeber the numbers but the manual performs much better! Also it is much more fun. And the autos suck!

A guy I know told me he has drove both the manual and auto and said that there is nothing between em just has fast and the performance is the same.
NOOOO I do not agree. I watched a stock auto try and race a stock manual TT and the auto was absolutely decimated! The auto tranny is crappy in the Z32 it takes it forever to shift and it engages poorly. The manual on the other hand is a good tranny and it is much much more relaible and it performs MUCH better.

That's true for a stock auto trans. Check out the Level 10 rebuilt auto trans and high stall torque converters:
They still tend to have problems when built. The Autos aren't nearly as strong and even though they can be built to withstand alot that isn't cheap and the manual can do the same STOCK with only a better clutch. The manual is also alot more fun.

So what is the approx 0-60 time of the auto model???
Half a second isn't good either. And those were conservative compared to some other numbers I found for the auto. Try 7.0 0-60 and 15.7 in the quarter but I am 100% sure that is incorrect but the Autos aren't nearly as fast and I would never recommend a Z with an automatic transmission.

thanks
The difference in parts are
1) Turbo's
2) cams.
The nissan OEM part#'s are different for manual and auto.
You guys didnt even mention that the auto comes stock with only 280 hp whereas the manual has 300 hp. thats a big difference right there. so not only does the auto start at a disadvantage in hp right from the factory but they also have to deal with crapier transmissions too.
