Automatic Gtr?

[GUN_METAL_GTR32]

a mate of mine went and checked out one about 3 months ago in melbourne, it had a stagea conversion apparently, i never really asked him much about it coz the next time i saw him he had a completely different car,

its a waste of time imo. waste of a good gtr.

Isn't the new GTR an auto only? Yeah they call the trans some fancy name but still an auto in the end yes (as in no foot operated clutch or conventional gearstick)

nothing like an auto, there is no torque convertor in the new gtr. it is electrically actuated manual (dual clutch)

Also to dig up an old thread, but any more info on this as a mate of mine claims he knows someone with an auto GTR. I thought he was kidding.

Seems like there's been a few conversions from prior posts in the thread. So it's plausible he might.

I'm pretty confident in saying Nissan delivered absolutely no automatic BNR-coded cars.

I think you’re right from factory there were no auto GTR but Gtst did have some autos.

Are the autos faster than stock manuals, I wonder?

Have you ever driven a 90's auto car? They aren't called sludgeboxes for nothing.

Meaning what exactly, mate? As in they're super slow or faster?

I wonder how they go. Interesting concept. I've never driven an Auto fast car before. HSVs for example, do have a lot of go on auto.

Look at Maatouks, all auto all sub 9 sec "Street" cars
