so whats more solid than slush? ice? lol icebox it is.

i keed i keed. im only referring to the stock/non-powerful AT cars. just doesnt give me that satisfying feeling of driving if it doesnt have that 3rd pedal.

BUT...sounds like you have a nasty setup mgrotel!

 

80s ZX turbos were better as autos, turbos had more lag then. Give me a good MT, that's where driver skill comes into play and a great upshift is always a rush.

 

i understand manuals are probably more fun, but like i said, im only worried about going fast and i have yet to meet anyone who can shift faster and never miss a gear than a trango transmission. not to mention, if you look at the top cars in every type of racing, almost all are autos, with the exception being drifting, which i could give 2 rats about. lol

the coupe, you excited as i am for tomorrow? you better be updating this **** on a regular basis!

 

I understand. Im not too worried about track times and such as all I do is normal spirited street driving so super precise .01 of a second shifts arent really necessary. Although id like to try out a built AT to feel the difference. And yes. Im excited for tomorrow. I gotta put on my md spacer and change out my ypipe gaskets cuz right.now I have the stock gaskets in...which are smaller than the header outlets.

 

qft.

My car is a daily, not a race car.

The difference was night & day in driveability & useable power after my tune. Good luck tomorrow I am looking forward to a big number!

fyi I decided to have the machine shop that did the work complete my build AFTER I get back in two weeks.

 

300+?
are you at sea level?

 

this is'nt AT vs MT thread. If u wanna debate that make your own dam thread

 

chill, the thread was already back on topic till you took it offtopic again

 

mgrotel im trying to figure out who you are to lurk in the NA builds section with no NA build

 

give me a few months, in process, very similar to thecoupes, but im not posting pics of mine in his thread, cause its just that, his thread

 

hmm ok see im sitting here getting the impression that you think of yourself as like a master mechanic who has a badass NA build bc you comment in everyones NA threads giving advice and being a critic. So i was right about you. Carry on the thread

 

i could care less what you think of me, and i never criticize. just try to help when i think i can, people can take it or leave it, just like i do with others' advice
why are you trying to start ****?

 

ok leave. OP has Bobby and Bens Advice at CIN. He can keep your advice on the back burner. You know like toilet paper.

 

you leave, you think you are so funny, im not giving the op advice, not once have i, just having a normal discussion about cars

 

sorry for all the garbage in here thecoupe, ill just ignore him from now on

 

easy now guys before you ground yall in my thread too! lol

im not taking advice. no im not AT, im 6MT! i live in the upstate sc so idk what elevation im at....surely not anything high lol.

qft? whats that mean?
but im glad you got a better set plan for finishing your motor tho, e30.

and as far as the power...im sure there will be a big diff cuz other than the faster revs and a lil boost in midrange power....i dont feel too much difference....hence why i need the tune to get everything where it needs to be. driveability is ok other than bein a lil on the rich side so i feel a lil hesitation here and there....and the cutting off when the idle drops down. so i cant wait til tomorrow!!!!!!!!!!!!! i so excited!

 

the tune should smooth everything out real nice, cant wait to see what you put down. and i hope you dont think i was trying to give advice, wasnt my intent at all, someone just has something against me, o well. dont forget pics and vids from tomorrow man!

 

qft = quoted for truth.

 

lol i didnt think you were givin me any advice. just a lil back and forth on ATs possibly not sucking so bad....under certain circumstances. lol otherwise its all good. we're all good people in here, i hope so atleast. and ill def have vids and pics ready.....even keep this updated while i wait during the tune.

e30. thanks. now i know lol. its just the way i see it since i dont do any sort of racing and whatnot. just like to have some power at my use whenever i wanna use it

 

who needs a revup to make 300hp?
