Where as I can agree with the big wheel statement, I will diagree on the AT statement just because Nissan wised up and finally added a 5AT, and so far, these things make power regardless of being auto AND, in reference to the timeslip data base, I have yet to see, stock for stock, a faster 6MT (5AT vs 6MT)

WTF are you guys talking about ? your in lala land if you say so , or you just make your self feel good , because a 5 speed auto will never perform as a 6 speed manual. As for now all i have is an intake because i had to take my car to the dealer , i will take it off and run here any fully bolt ond auto maxima here and it will not have a chance with me , RAMBERG told me he trapped 98 mph in a 1/4 mile and he has every mod possible and that is extra slow , plus the gearing ratio is diff. on the 6th gen 6 speed it is much faster than the 5.5 6speed , because the 5.5 gen DIES after 3rd gear , btw here's a video of my max i want to see you do same on your auto max , this is a 350z 6 speed he runs 13.9 @ 100 mph , and i pulled like 2 cars on him ,all i had is sp2 and CAI , and if you think im a ricer i'll have the guy register to this the forum and post the slip for you , i don't want to say anything bad but you cannot compare a 5 speed vs a 6 speed it is a big difference , anyone to disagree can have a friendly run with me on a closed course ofcourse lol =] , and i mean his car is hot as hell and most of the guys here have hot and clean 6th gens , but i'm just saying if my max would be auto id deff spend all the money on looks , interior , sound etc just my 02 cents =]

Dude, you are in the 6th gen forum. Who is talking about a 5.5 ??? Oh and as for the 6th gens go, stock for stock, i believe the 5AT will beat the 6MT. NO MT driver will EVER shift as fast as an Auto tranny.

I find it ironic how there have been a lot of "age bashers" on the org lately, when the basher isn't even literate...

I'll run you

lmao from a STOP up to what 20MPH ????? where do you live ? let's have a run lmao i just can't wait to run your slow AUTO MAX , YES I wont argue it may be better form a stop if a driver of the 6 spee can't launch the car properly and can't shift good , but if you shift GOOD , im not even saying perfect , but good , the 6 speed will be much faster and even if the auto will be faster from the stop , it's only because A) it's going to loose a lot of traction , B) have the rpm's very low but any way it will catch up right away w.e. i shouldn't even be talking about it , any car enthusiast know that a manual car of any make and model is faster than an auto and your just jelous you can't drive manual , i really want to run you , ill drive 3 hours if i have to just to prove your wrong , get back at me on when and where we can do it i don't even care what modds you have ill come stock . Hope i'll hear soon from you , thanks .

Wow, you want to slow your roll there? I can drive stick fairly well, and you should do a little more research before you say that ANY make is faster in manual than auto...

I'm in this for the experimentation/fun, but you seem like the ignorant one here

Chicago area

We can experiment from different MPH then, yes?

One that I've always read/heard about was the last generation of the Firebirds/Trans Am, w/e you want to call them...the auto gearing was faster than the manual gearing.

Maybe your friend sucks at driving? Stop saying "my car," when you don't even know what I have...I'm not trying to make it sound like I have f/i, but you get my drift...and temperature, humidity, elevation, all that make a difference with "times."

http://forums.maxima.org/showpost.ph...9&postcount=77g

And why are you comparing the G stock vs. 6th gen stock when it has "15hp" more, weighs a little less, and is RWD?

Maybe you have a factory freak, or everyone that you race against suck?

YES a factory freak , thank you. Everyone also argue with me just like the guy with the 350z on the video i posted , he was like " ILL SMOKE YOU BACKWARDS " lol and when i came down he was surprised as hell that i smoked him , also the guy on the FULLY boltn ond 05 rsx-s but he took me after 4th gear by a little because we did 2nd gear roll , if we did 1st gear he wouldnt catch up because his low end tq is horrible , but he was like no WAYYYY he's like your spraying lol , but anyway Yes in some cases auto is faster but the nissans 350z , altimas , maximas , the manuals have to be faster because the auto is not that really good on it and i drove it and it felt deff slower , w.e lol im not going to argue no more i just say what i've experienced , i also have the vid with rsx if you want to see

There are a lot of factors that come into play with that scenario. Tuning, weight, temp, etc.

That's odd that they asked for your car. I was the first 06 max to get it done and they had my ECU for 2 weeks. I had to send back a few times before they got it right but it works well.
