What is the drivetrain loss on the auto tranny? By the way, thanks for the updated weight info!

According to the dyno tests it is very similar to the 6MT once the torque converter locks. No one knows the true drive train loss, it depends on who you listen to or what dyno results you look at. It could be as high as 23% or as low as low as 18%.

Thanks ChrisSlicks. Could you also verify the 370Z's weight for me?

I've used PocketDyno+ many times and it has gotten great results, although I got it when it was only $5 now it's about $13. I've also looked at but haven't tried Torqued, which has a built in library of cars to choose from so you don't have to mess with finding the right weight, can't speak on its accuracy though. I would recommend trying the free version of PocketDyno it has many features from the pay version and uses the same technology. Torqued also has a free version.

The "dry" weight for Touring model with AT is 3314 pounds. To that you have to add the weight of your fuel tank (approx 6.15 pounds per gallon) and the weight of yourself (175 pounds for me). There might be some other small adjustments for miscellaneous pieces that may or may not have been included in the dry weight (spare, washer fluid etc).

As an example, if you had half a tank of gas @10 gallons and you weight the same as me you would be looking at around 3550 pounds.

Okay, I'll try all three and post results here soon...

Thanks, all!

Actually, no free version of torqued that I could find...
