they are the eibach springs that stillen sells. and as far as lining them up. we can but it would be pointless for me. my car doesnt launch worth **** but i have done rolls with them both and i hold my own very well.

It depends on the year of the G... remember, the 2007 MT G35 Coupe had 293 hp! No way the A/C is beating that when it hits 4th gear!

driver plays a big part, but i also think the cvt is sucking up your power. from a 20 roll with the 6mt your hanging high in first and your rpms are close to redline and at peak hp for the gear where as with the cvt you're waiting for the rpm's to gain when mashing the gas and waiting to reach peak hp which will never reach even close to the peak hp of either the z or the g. the 6mt actually launches pretty good and i can come off the line with any 350z (bone stock), but the z will continue to pull down the track from 2nd gear on. now the g's i can out launch as the a/c is lighter and have no problem holding the lead up to 100mph. but again, this is 6mt vs. 6mt's.

edit: I'm speaking in terms of 06 or greater z's, and 07 or greater g's.

Agreed.. the curb weight of the A/C is a few hundred pounds lighter I believe.. and I def agree it depends on the driver... I'm just now learning how to drive stick... and I doubt I could keep up with you guys if I was driving the G37

smithersbpr use the manual mode if yall are rolling. When rolling in first gear using the manual mode, our cars move pretty fast. I know a lot of people disagree that manual mode is faster than cvt, but I play with it a WHOLE lot and I promise you in this situation mauanl mode will be faster. ( If you do it right)

putting it in first is nice so that its instant when you hit the gas instead of switching into a lower band. but full auto is faster. atleast thats what i found to be at the track.
