Auto FD???

Hello everyone...well I've been out of the rotary scene for a while and now I'm deciding to come back. I was just wondering if there are any automatic fd owners here in norcal or close by? I need your input on your car and was it worth it getting an automatic...I'm only asking because that's the only really good option that's a clean title and at reasonable price near me.

autos are fine. if it's clean and low mileage buy it.

if you want to swap it later it'll be about 1100-1200. we've got plenty of autos around nowadays with ~350-400whp running around.


banzai racing has started to offer support for the auto FD and the PFC as the car's ecu.

I'm not really gonna do a lot of drag racing or anything maybe a couple pulls every now n then but that's all. I'm only planning on doing a couple a mods like intake, exhaust, i/c, dp, mp, y-pipe, and a tuned ecu for the mods.
