though these high end cars have very nice, well built trannies... you still cannot match the power distribution of a manual... it's just a matter of physics...

Plus, we drive Infiniti G35s... a $40k car... not high end quarter million dollar plus cars...

 

A MT is still a MT. AT is a fake MT. Thats my personal opinion and Im sticking to it.

I have only seen and heard ppl changing their transmission from AT to MT. I have never seen or heard anybody change their MT to AT.

 

Well I'm not one of those "OMG.. It's so kewl" type of people just because I got something new.. I DEFINITELY FEEL a difference in shifting smoothness in my AT. There's noticeably less jerk upshifting and downshifting in manual mode and auto mode.. The lights are brighter (prior to me putting in the projectors) and the radio only has to be put on 17 as opposed to 20.. All of these things are DEFINITELY due to the grounding kit..

Whereas I'm not an electrical engineer, I can't give you justifiable proof of WHY it work.. I can just testify my experience..

I have been told that different grounding kits DO perform differently, I was told to stay away from the stillen and many others.. That if I was going to do a grounding kit, go w/ Sean's (SxExCx) or Gordgee.. Those were found to perform the best for our cars, and most specifically ATs. MTs don't see anything close to the results as ATs because the most apparent one is the shifting smoothness... Maybe you got one of the less performing grounding kits.. I'd welcome you to get Sean's kit and do a review..

 

A fake MT? No it's just a different transmission. Nothing fake about it.

Doesn't make it any better or any worse. It's just different. As far as what you hear, does that really help you prove your elitist notion that MT's are "better" than AT's? All of us chose to purchase what we did, so if you want to look down upon your fellow G "brothers" because they have an automatic, then

 

Yeah, so is this Saturday, the 16th, 8am, confirmed?
Chime in ppl.... I guess all are ok w that day, except 1 or 2 who will be out of town.
Ofcourse, we need a plan B, if its rains.

 

i would never look down on you for your choice... i've actually been very impressed on how well they last after the abuse they have taken... between your boost and my friend's horrible driving habits, the autos are still strong.

would just never be envious of an auto owner...

 

I meant the ATs with the "triptronic", are fake MTs, to me.
Yeah I know most G "brothers" on here have ATs and Im sure they have their reasons. I just prefer MTs.
I am not "looking down upon" anybody.

 

+1
Well put.

 

And I would never be envious of an MT ... well, i'm never really envious of anything, since I don't roll like that.

Envy is bad mmkay

 

+2..
Better put.

 

I don't know...

 

ROFLMAO!!!! What the hell?!?!?!?!?!?!

Envy is bad... cause it's drama and drama is pointless...

I'm a control freak... MT = certified control of power... and clutch > torque converter (even with a good stall) so :P haha

I love my fellow G "brothers"

 

my reaction was the exact same.. I had to bring my wife in here to see that.. that was great Will.. LMAO

I think that's his way of saying this is a pointless argument...

 

already researched it... it was a joke... it's a korean kids game called chicken where you try to knock each other down while holding up one leg like that... apparently those are korean celebs in some sort of baseball game... the batter was hit with a bean bag...

so funny though

 

man, when you have to explain the joke it doesn't become funny anymore...*sigh* lol
