I need a new graphics card. Wonder if they have come down in price since the crypto mining crap.

Seriously, that made me kind of angry. Getting a GeForce 1060 GTX for anything like a reasonable price became quite difficult.

I heel toe just kinda mindlessly. If i wanted the car to do it for me i would have bought an automatic Z instead (:

I sit in LA traffic at least 4 hours a day, if not more when I go to work. When I was in the market for a Z and test drove the manual, nope.. no way am I doing with a manual!

haha nice.

i test drove 4 different manuals when i was shopping for my Z and all were terrible. the clutch is blah and look at the now infamous CSC :bowrofl:

7AT was the right choice. it's faster, better gearing, no CSC, not an issue if you hit traffic, etc etc etc etc :stirthepot:

I grew up with an automatic as my first car. It was super boring. Plus i dont really live in an area with heavy traffic, and only see it when i go to visit LA. Manual was a must for me, just couldnt warrant the extra money on something i felt i didnt need.

my first 2 out of 3 cars were manuals. had few in between as well. they're fun but have their place also the tech of DCT and better auto tech just makes them obsolete almost

The only thing I dont like about the AT on the Z is the dang shift delay. But I hear that a tune can fix that.. we shall see! I admit though, that the 2 step rev limiter does sound cool...

i have mine tuned so there's a small delay but i had my line pressure jacked up so it shifts tight and hard.....giggity.

:wtf2:

also, i believe some shop has found a way to add launch control to the 7AT with ecutek.

Haboob 08-09-2018 02:05 PM

Yeah, I got rid of the MT for an auto (DSG) because of traffic. So, so, so much better.

The MT is fun, but meh. I'm over it. And my leg feels better when sitting in traffic, haha.

bunk 08-09-2018 02:06 PM

I read about that. A shop up in the SF Bay area. I saw a video of kid have launch control on his AT. Doesnt bother me that I dont have it. It would suck anyway having launch control and only bolt ons as mods..lol
