Also 617, how do you shift in tiptronic, do you just bang it into the next gear, or do you allow the rpm's to drop first?

and how much torque do you have and how long do you own G35 (maybe you don have problems with auto transmission only because you own it not so long?)

...there are always exceptions to the rule and it will vary from tranny to tranny, but putting a cooler on it isn't going to make it last that much longer. You'll need a lot more upgrades to make it last past 400tq.
