AT 4SPD to 6SPD Possible?
New to the RX-8 just recently got my dream car however was wondering if anyway to get the 05 model with 4SPD AT to the 6SPD AT?

Step 1 - Sell the 4 port
Step 2 - Buy a 6 port |
Ah I read something like this but was thinking was only for the MT swap. This will be expensive then. Appreciate the reply

Get the 5 speed from a euro spec
|
do some research.
It's likely easier and more cost effective to sell the car and buy the one you actually want. |
5th thread this year about the same subject.
|
Thats interesting. Dont think I've ever seen someone wanting to switch to the 6's but keep the automatic transmission.
|
appreciate the reply guys and yes i did see the swap from auto to manual but wasnt sure if it was the same... If anything yea i would swap to manual but wife likes to drive the car as well so was a thought.
|
I say stick with the 4 speed. I have no meniscus in my left knee anymore and i have a torn right rotator cuff, I gotta dd a auto for now.
I went from my 5 speed fc to a 04 4 speed 8 and i enjoy the gears. I drove a buddys 6speed mt and i wasn't that amazed. The paddle shifter is kinda like manual, well not really :( |
+1 sell it buy the six speed....
If the wife cant drive it she cant wreck it. |

I'm pretty sure the OP was wanting to get the newer 6sp AUTO transmission swapped in, not a 6sp MANUAL.
I was wondering about this as well, but read that there would be a lot of complications with the wiring and PCM. Searching does wonders. Anyways, 1st post! |
