I was just told that I shouldnt put a TT kit on my car because its an Auto and that the tranny cant handle it? Is there a way to rebuild the factory tranny and beef it up?

the same tranny is used in the QX so i think it can handle it...the only thing is the rpm's will go up too fast for the tranny to shift. you should probably get a stillen valve body upgrade. see what others have to say before u take my advice,lol

 

Do a valve body upgrade and you should be good up to ~***-***whp. Ask Tinman, he has had an SFR TT kit on his 5AT for some time.

Edit: looks like they hold up to ~550whp. There is a link a few posts down.

 

yea VB upgrade. purchase and instal usually sets you back a grand. for some reason...maxima and altima vb upgrades are much cheaper

 

I am sure the FWD vs RWD transmission has something to do with it.

a have a quesiton of my own....after 450 wrhp what can one do to upgrade the auto tranny????

 

SGP's upgrade is holding 650+---cant ask for more than that

 

^^^

It says 550, not 650.

They also talk about a full custom tranny that will go into the 850 range. Check out the link.

 

well graphite....i do believe there is a shop (name escapes me) that has a dialr driver G35 coupe at 700+ hp......i know its a manual but how is this obtainable with an auto??? if it even is obtainable...lol

 

VRT has their coupe which makes 760whp/800wtq. I met a guy here in Phoenix who has ridden in it and he said you can't even tell until you hit the gas. It's quite a sleeper for the most part.


It's the same engine so with the right TT set-up you can make similar power with an AT.

 

760/800!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! holy ****!......speachless

 

it's all about the tune...

but if u plan on going F1 just keep in mind that u might blow your tranny. i wouldnt build it till u break it. only thing i did was tranny cooler...didnt like choices for VB

 

So you didn't do a VB upgrade? I guess since you are still down in the 400 range you are ok. Good call with the cooler.

 

I don't think are cars would stand a chance in the Formula One circuit


If it ain't broken why fix it.


How much of a hassle would it be to convert to 6mt? I couldnt see it costing to much.
