What kind of times are the auto owners getting? I'm 6 months to a year away from buying a Z and plan on getting the auto. The spec won't make a difference in which one I buy. I'm just curious.

Wow, nobody has timed their auto? Surely it's not that bad

Usually, autos are .5 tenths slower then sticks...so your probably hovering around 0-60 at 5.9 to 6.1

this dude got a 14.1 1/4 mile time in an auto. the fastest ive seen is a 13.9, and that stat is from motor trend.

zman23 · 03-12-2003, 04:00 PM

My best is 5.875 ; 0-60.

whosdady · 03-12-2003, 08:45 PM

A stock Z is faster 0-60 with the automatic transimission. 5.4 zero to 60 and 13.62 1/4 mile is the fastest I have heard or read. Both acheived with a 5AT.
If you read further on the thread with the guy getting 14.1, there was a 6 MT that was consistantly .5 sec slower in the 1/4 than the auto. No big surpise...It was the same way with my MKIV twin turbo supra, which I had a 6MT. It was not fun watching an ato pick up a faster time slip

SO now I have a 5%AT 350Z.

whosdady.. the last person who posted in this thread ... posted 6 years ago in march of 2003... i just think its funy to be bringing up messages that are 6 years old...... NOT that there is anything wrong with it .. just a little bit of humor in it lol

I don't think any of those people are even on this forum anymore :P

and 7.11 for a 0-60 time?? in a 350z???????/ something is very wrong man

thefreakjunior · 02-16-2009, 02:27 PM

2K3 Z · 04-07-2009, 10:11 PM

The fastest I've ran with my 5AT which is stock except for a JWT Pop Charger is 14.4 It was my first day there today. Not sure if thats pretty good for what it is.

R/T .511
60' 2.220

My trap was 97.77 MPH

Cool. Thread archeology... But hey, theres not much out there about the 5AT.

Once you figure out how to shift the 5AT in manual mode, with all of the TCS/VDC off, you can get very respectable times.

I use a G-Tech that I calibrated at Houston Raceway Park to get my 0-60mph times. When my '06 5AT Z was totally stock the best 0-60mph I got was a 5.423. With all of the mods it does 5.0-5.1 consistantly. I have managed to get a 4.987 once. My typical quarter mile times are 13.3's-3.4's @ 104. My best ever run was a 13.28 @ 104.76, 8.82 1/8th mile @ 83.74, 2.1 60' at Houston Raceway Park

Yeah, I figured I'd throw it out there since there Isn't much out there on the 5AT. I'm hoping to break into the 13's. I want to do

Kinetix V+ Plenum, ECU, Throttle Body Spacer, Underdrive Pulleys, Exhaust, and a few other things and get it tuned. Hopefully I can see low 13's.

Thanks

chrisaray · 04-08-2009, 12:01 AM

^^^^^^^ Lemme know how it turns out.

Jamie76 · 04-08-2009, 12:20 AM

wow,this is one old thread! LOL

the best time that I have ever gotten after taking out all the extra weight that I could was 5.2, but usually I am around 5.4.

BoostedMKIV · 04-08-2009, 01:01 AM

I'm pretty sure if a 6-speed 350Z can do 0-60 in 5 seconds, than an auto 350Z should be able to do 0-60 in about 0.000003 seconds or so.

I like cheese.

Ramzi · 04-08-2009, 02:26 AM

My Stock 04.5 Z 5AT did it in 6.3 in Auto mode but I did get some wheel spin on the take off...so you guys are saying the car can do better? btw my car is in very good condition.

chrisaray · 04-08-2009, 08:41 PM

With practice you should be able to get a bone stock 04.5 5AT Z int the mid 5's. Shift it manually and turn the TCS off if your car has it. You will get some wheelspin but thats OK as long as its not too much. Try left foot braking, bring RPM up to 2000-2100. Let your foot off of the brake as you roll into the throttle.

Learn to shift it manually right before it hits the rev limiter.
