I am new here but looked around for an answer before making my post as I did not find anything.

I have an auto '90 and need a tranny. I found a T1 on ebay but I am not sure if it will work?

Anybody?

82 T1? i thought the only previous turbo was the T1 in 85 and only in jspec cars.

 

Any 81-91 NA tranny should work just fine.

 

it may bolt up but there is a lot more to it than simply bolting it on and going, you would need a turbo flywheel and clutch to match your engine series.

then there is the matter of the ECU, guage cluster, wiring harness, clutch master/slave/hoses, pedals, etc...

 

As I said I am still new with the lingo. I thought T= Type, no? Niether car is a turbo. Both are automatics.

ahh i see, i don't think a FB auto will work in a FC but that is just an assumption.

 

FB and FC, can you explain?

 

FB is the older body style of the RX7, the first generation. FC is the second generation which you own.

 

oh any would work
you are going to make a custom tranny mount anyways!

 

You need an auto from an 89-91, short and simple. It may be possible to take an auto 86-88 and swap your sensors onto it. I have no clue about the older 1gen ones, but I know they mount differently in the car, so I wouldnt fool with one of those. Besides, if your 90 one died, how good a shape would an early 80's one be in compared to that?
