Hey guys just bought a 96' G20 today (i dont have an owners manual, on infiniti's website they said u have to call up n order it-i still have to do that)
Just wondering though, theres a little switch that says A/T on it in the car, right near the Gear shifter, it can be swiched to power or comfort, does this control how hard the tranny changes gears or something? thanks for the help

BTW, there are a bunch of owners manuals on eBay right now. Not a 1996 but anything between 94-96 should work for your car.
Welcome to your newest addiction!!! Just watch out for the curse.

The switch doesn't control how "hard" the tranny shifts. It controls when the tranny shifts. In "comfort" mode, it'll will upshift at lower revs when accelerating, will take longer to downshift when you're trying pass someone on the freeway and will quickly go back to a higher gear. In "power" mode, it'll upshift at higher revs, will downshift quicker and will hold that lower gear for a little longer, giving you the "feel" of the car having more power.
As for me, I just leave it in comfort mode since I rarely feel the need to floor the gas. Hope that helps. :)
I highly recommend that you check into the Engine Section of the forum so you can see what are the best mods for you to make your G respond better. (Ex:JWT/Stillen intake, Hotshot headers, etc);)

This is something I didn't notice for some time. but with the overdrive switch on or off, when you floor your car the a/t switch automatically switches to power and turns itself off when you ease off the petal.
