according to my friend at sp.... he just test drive my car there n its si be powerfulll :biggrin:
I believe so coz if u r drivin a 3.0 = 210 hp or if 2.0 = 155hp , so if manual u get to feel the horses on every gear but our auto hmmm.. When I climb the Genting Highland hill i got so frustrated coz i got overtaken by a Toyota Camry 2.4v ! Damn:banghead::bawling::rofl:. I will be planning to swap the manual gearbox very soon!:smokin::slug:

Nowadays car buyer would prefer auto transmission maybe because of the traffic jams in malaysia.. However there r quite a number of performance enthusiasts who r die hard MT users. There alot of advantage s of using manual eg; better fuel mileage , faster acceleration (harder launches) , full control of the veh during winding roads (yummy!), better hill climbing abillity , cheaper and lesser maintenance and repair cost, etc..

But u ll be damn glad if there is a massive traffic jam upfront coz u r in an auto car, hehehe..:driver::proud:
Anyways, my main concern is will our ori auto engine ecu goes haywire/crazy if it unable to detect the AT ecu during its operations?

Comments anyone?

A32 ecu is one unit of its own but if your car c/w an autobox it will have another ecu for the auto box which will be linked to the engine ecu.:confused: By unplugging at AT connector harness will it confuse the engine ecu thus making it to run rough or something . Have checked with 2 mechanic and they told me that it will be ok..:nurse:

There r some ppl in the states have already done without much of a fuss. they just quote that after the swap if you can start the car and engage all the gears smoothly u r on the right track.

Seizai , would it be convenient if u could upload your engine compartment
and your manual gear lever so that i can have a better view of the manual car?
Thanks.
