Question 93 FD 1st Gear?

Hey everyone I am 16 and I'm getting my 93' FD in two weeks and I was wondering about the manual transmission. When we drove it I could not shift into first unless the car was at a complete stop. Now this is not normal with other trannies, so I was wondering if all the 7's do this? Still I love that car to the death and cant wait to start moddin it and then switch the the almighty single eventually. Thanks for your help.

You can shift it into first without being at a complete stop, but it takes more effort. I've only driven a few other manual transmission cars, but they worked the same way.

Thanks you and I was also wondering as to where you could purchase a Datalogit because I would like to learn and be able to tune my own system with an apex pfc. Thanks.

Lots of places sell the Power FC:

http://www.rx7store.net/

and I know Rotary Performance sells the Power FC and the datalogit.

Here is a link:

good luck with your car, and be careful!

The sole US distributor is Rotary Performance. www.rx7.com

Please spend a lot of time researching before you start modding the car. Take care of basic maintenance and reliability issues first. Don't kill yourself.
