G35 Uposhifting Jerky

I have had my g35 for about 6 months and I've noticed that when I accelerate hard that upshifting is jquite jerky and not smooth especially compared to my old 330ci. Is this normal? Is there anything i can do to increase the shifting in b/w on the 05' auto.

It's jerky cause it's faster. I assume if you are accelerating hard, you want to be shifting fast too to get the best speed, or rather most people would want to... slow shift = smooth shift (or it should anyway). Be glad it is jerky when you mash the pedal.

Apparently it's not jerky enough since the 6MT is still faster

Add a grounding kit and it will shift even faster
