I will echo what others have said the weak point in the drive train is the axles. We have implemented a traction control system to help mitigate the shock to the axles before having to go to custom drive shaft shop axles.

Watch any professional driver behind the wheel. You dont see them tearing the sh*t out of the gear box like an idiot. They are clean and smooth on every shift. I model my shifting technique the same way. Look at how dynosty shifts in his other videos. Nice and Smooth. Grinding problems often occur with improper shifting technique.

Thats how ignorant you are your arguing that fact that it is an isnt is irrelovant. Obviously these problems arent occuring in every transmission. All Iv stated is by looking at the number of tranny complaints on here and my club it seems the auto is holding up better. I stated up top that I have no idea which one is in fact better. Do I know the 6mt is proven yes I think the tranny is definitly proven and it is great transmission but you cant speak for every person with a 6mt z. From my own experience with an auto z and a manual z iv had more problems with my manual. Mabe your right mabe the manual is the better of the 2 only the manual you have to be a " great shifter" which is why in the begining I said the auto system itself may be better just because theres no human error. Now a shisty shifter like yourself may not have as many problems as some with a little less shifting skills. Not everyone is a "professional shifter" like you so you cant speak for the masses. Theres more people out there running 370z on the track then just the people on this site. So ok i can rephrase what I said in the begining and say mabe the auto is a better choice for you less seasoned drivers who want to track there cars. Remember you cant teach a skill to everyone. As for me its not s shifting problem that I promise you.
