Shinka wants to go fast!!!
 
I have a 2006 shinka at :( and one i dont like the at transmission two what modifications can i do to my car to make it fast that the AT will handle?

tubingchamp 08-21-2009 12:02 PM

Sell the AT and buy a MT.

The fastest anyone has gotten the AT to go is about what a MT can get with Full N/A mods + tuning..

Don't listen to these fags and their sarcastic posts. I'll help you go fast.

First, you can buy the twin turbos from a 1993-1995 RX-7, they are a direct swap. It's basically a plug-n-play kinda deal. You can find them at junkyards everywhere for a little bit under $200. This will give you an instant extra 200 whp. You can always try the electric turbonator or supercharger, that's a lot simpler to do but you'll have to order it online instead, it also comes with a nifty super boost button. As for suspension, just take out the springs and ride on the shocks, this will dramatically drop your car so you will have a lower center of gravity and it will handle a lot better. I hope this help!

Sincerely your friend,
Renesis SE3P

Paint flames adds like 50WHP.

dont listen to ren. all he knows is donkey raping techniques.

just get some overnight parts from japan. jdm y0

RIWWP 08-21-2009 12:12 PM

Unfortunately, the RX-8 completely stock is limited about 145-150 mph. That is way too slow in today's world. Even Prius's have us beat. It's sad I know. In order to break that mark, we have found that the cheapest way is to find a really long downhill. The steeper the better. Pushing your car out of a plane works too, but only one person has been willing to try that, and well, it didn't turn out so well. Talk about a headache of an engine rebuild.

Aside from that, your only options are located in vehicles that don't have RX or 8 in the name.

You don't know anything about tuning cars, hell, I have proof. You added NOS Energy Drink into you gas tank thinking that it was a real octane booster. :icon_no2:

I have 4 1993 RX-7 turbos in my car and I beat Ferraris and Lamborghinis on a daily basis, I'm pushing 800whp and it's my daily driver. I have 8 RX-7 turbos in my Civic and I can break the sound barrier with that.

A good cheap mod is this:

Hahaha. Well to be serious for a second. You need to not make a post like this expecting to get any real answers. An AT doesn't have much to give. You need to get a different tranny before you can have any sort of real power.

NoOdLe BoY 08-21-2009 12:17 PM

oh wow i havent responded in this thread in years!!!! oh yeah its cause i have overnight jdm turbos with tiny asian people in it helping it spool up so im in the future!!!!!!

I heard about that man..

How is the year 2169? Send me some crazy lazer turbo nitrous boost controllers while you're there.

I hear they're good for 9kRWHP!

RufusVonStorm 08-21-2009 12:26 PM

Should have gotten the MT, now your only option is to trade for a used WRX

Huey52 08-21-2009 01:14 PM

There are folks here who have Pettit superchargers on AT's.

But if you don't like the AT (understandable) then your only option is to trade for an MT.

I8U 08-21-2009 01:17 PM

Man, I hate this threads...:(

Phil's 8 08-21-2009 01:28 PM

I can't keep up with the new 8 owners that can't read or don't know how to search. Ask stupid questions and tells us nothing. Never mentioned if he was 4 port or 6 port. And the misinformation that gets posted as answers is unbelievable. I will not even bother to tell my end......I prefer Renesis SE3P answers - at least you know he's screwing with you................................

Jedi54 08-21-2009 01:35 PM

2006 = 6 Port, right? :scratchhe
you're already ahead of the guys with stock '04 or '05 AT's as they had 4port engines with less hp then you.

How fast do you want to go?
how mechanically inclined are you?
Have you considered Forced Incuction?
How much do you want to spend?

simple answers:
- Nitrous is cheap and effective
- Turbo or Supercharger can add quite a bit of horsepower but you're kissing your warranty goodbye and it's not cheap. (just ask Phil8 and his beautiful Supercharged 4 port AT)

what prius goes 150mph they top off at 98 mph! my dads company has em

RIWWP 08-21-2009 01:46 PM

I may have exagerated slightly.

This Prius though, http://www.autoblog.com/2004/12/22/w...astest-hybrid/ hit 130. They are running 550 volts, compared to the standard 500v Prius.

We have what....12v? Clearly they are faster.

Jedi54 08-21-2009 01:48 PM

550 divided by 12.
yeah, they are 45 times FASTER then us. :(

why the HELL did I buy an RX-8? I could have had a Prius...

bkkkk93 08-21-2009 03:29 PM

Fuck all of yall i mean what the fuck if you knew anything 2006 is a 6 port dumbass and with your fucking sarcastic posts shut the fuck up.

bkkkk93 08-21-2009 03:31 PM

Jedi 54 i would go forced induction and the main thing i wanted to do first was swap out at or a mt and i want to go as fast as possible

1. AT to MT swap is not very easy.
it's been done once that I know of and it's quite the process. HONESTLY, you're almost better off selling the car and buying an MT. It's not just about switching transmisisons.

2. "go as fast as possible"
speed is not an issue, you can easily do over 120+ mph in an AT.
are you tracking the car?
drag race?
or you just feel like you need more hp.

bkkkk93 08-21-2009 03:38 PM

i just feel i need more hp
