best automatic fd mods
Just curious what performance mods other auto fd owners are making, and can the transmission handle it?

Without being Rude,the best modification you can do to an Auto FC is turn it into a 5 speed.

Beast Mod-- Banzai Automatic ECU Adapter (93-95 RX-7)
FD3s RX-7 Block Off Plates APEXi Power FC Read Read Read and Do your own wrk if you can .. Read More ..\! |
We recently bought an automatic FD, it will be staying that way.
As 93autoFdTO4Z said, one of the best things you could do is install the Apexi Power FC with our adapter harness, this allows for the installation of every HP mod that the manual trans cars have. We will be creating a build thread after we get a chance to dyno tune the car. What we have done so far: Power FC and Banzai Adapter 4.33 Rear gears 850/1300cc injectors Denso Supra Pump SMIC Koyo N-flo Full exhaust Greddy Intake Simplified Sequential Vacuum Trans has held all the power during street tuning. |
I've been on here, lurking, for almost a year and I ended up buying a completely stock automatic FD recently (still is). From the list Banzai-Racing has on their automatic FD, I never knew how limited they would be (not that I love my car any less!).
Besides the aftermarket radiator (always says "M/T only" on the websites), I didn't think there would be any problems with just bolting on the reliability mods. I'll definitely be doing more of what 93autoFdTO4z stated! |
The auto is not limited, we could bolt on a single turbo if we wanted to, but we already have a 20b FD, so we do not need another mega-HP car. This will be near 400whp without sacrificing low end torque.
The Koyo can be installed in the auto.... |

I'm assuming what I misread is that the automatic ecu adapter harness is what is needed to install the apexi power FC to an automatic. And by doing this it helps by maintaining the "hold" feature and other automatic features correctly. Thanks for the tip on the Koyo! Do you guys sell everything on your list from your website? I'll probably pick a few things up from you guys. |
The Manual trans cars are just as "limited" they also need an EMS to install anything more than an intake, DP & catback same as the Auto cars.

How strong are the automatic transmissions on fd's?

The transmissions can't handle as much power as the manual gearbox....not sure on the breaking point for whp

A healthy auto trans will support over 400whp, there are people that have been doing it for years.
|
Its just the driving experience is ruined in my opinion with a auto
|
Every one of the fastest drag race cars are automatic.
|
banzai is correct!
|
im talking about as a street driven car or track car not drag but to each there own preference
|
The auto works great for me on the street, it's nice in the city. And if I am driving a little more aggressively through corners I can use the hold button to hold that gear right up to red line. It is a different experience, I don't intend to track it, it suits my needs!
