Here's what's going into my automatic FD. For more pics visit my build thread. Be sure to check out my links for paddle shifting options and transmission upgrades. https://www.rx7club.com/nw-rx-7-forum-33/my-fd-build-636633/page16/

What year is your car? Our harness is only for the Series 6 (93-95). It is not hard to set up at all. Here are the installation instructions from our site http://www.banzai-racing.com/FD_adapter_install.htm

he said he has the "280hp" motor, then again you can't assume lol. I've known a couple of gen 2 owners with auto tranny, and had no probs at all.

In our experience the auto tranny unmodified is good up to 400rwhp. Obviously mileage and shape of tranny will have an affect.
