first thing i have to say is.. what is up with you people. Dont sway from the main topic! he wanted to know how well an auto 3s will work. Its the same when people ask about mods. Everyone just flames and throws out the 3s swap. Thinks how useful this topic will be when someone searches for it in the future, and all they get is members telling them to learn to drive stick.


I know there are many reason to drive manuel. Personally I can drive a manual, but due to a car accident. my elbow prevents me from owning a manual car. ( elbow throbs with pain after driving for a while )

Hey Doc,
Do you know how much power the auto 3s from a mr2 can handle? I bet it will be one hard clip to find.

If it's the engine you mean, it would be no different than the 5-speed. If it's the tranny you're talking about, good question, but with most people running modified 3SGTEs that are making about 300 flywheel hp, I don't think it would be a problem. Getting over 300 is quite expensive so at that point you may as well think about getting a fully built tranny at that point.

We need a sunglass wearing smilie, and we should have a thumbs up if we're going to have a thumbs down. biggrin.gif
