auto vs manual

[Number7]

Im curious what the auto box will take in the RX7, the largo auto box is good for 500bhp !
Hopefully there wasn\'t more than one type of auto box for the rx7 (just incase) !

Just found a company in the UK that does kits etc.. http://www.proshift.co.uk have asked them the costs for an RX7

500bhp :Thumbs-up on Auto box.....
 
note: hold button doesn\'t work or works once when car is fitted with an Apexi FC (this varies on each auto rx7 and you may have to turn off ignition to re-set ) :yes
 
think \'sicknote\' upgraded an auto gearbox many years ago ask him.

You can make the \'Hold\' button work all the time - but you have to run the standard and and Apexi at the same time - using a Banzai Racing Automatic FD ECU Harness Adapter.

Check out this website then, showing a program you can set-up to run the flappy paddles etc:

paddle shift... how ??

and the auto ... well i have the FC and its fine changing up .. just a bit iffy on the down change

it gets confused and drops , revs it nuts off , thinks about it and then changes into the gear you want ( this is when you floor it )

if you accelerate gently then its not tooo bad

We have solved all those problems with our harness adapter mentioned above.



Up until now automatic FD owners have truly been limited when it comes to modifying their cars. This is why we sat down and figured out how to install an aftermarket engine management system that would keep the "HOLD" feature, as well as maintaining all the shifting functions.

What we have come up with is an adapter harness that allows installation of multiple EMS systems, while keeping the stock ECU operational to control the transmission computer. The stock ECU piggybacks on the EMS signals with just enough inputs to keep it on "life support".

Above is a picture showing the adapter with an APEXi Power FC. However, it is designed to be used with any plug and play EMS system.
