Anyone do this on a 5AT? Impressions?

 

OCG35 will be getting 3.7's on his AT.

Going from the stock 3.3 to 3.9 is unheard of for AT's.

I think it's an excellent mod for an AT.

.

 

How did you account for the odo/speedo being 10% off - new gear, ecu reflash, etc....?

 

Speedometer is not going to be 10% off. That has nothing to do with it.

And I don't see how an ECU reflash would be beneficial toward the new FD.

.

 

if the gearing is changed the speedo/odo isn't going to be right anymore.....I know some cars, for example, need a new speedo gear or else the speedo/odo will be off

I went with 4.10s in my mustang, never bothered to reflash the ecu, and was off by like 15%

 

I might be wrong, but I've never heard of that. Either way, your RPM meter should be correct.

.

 

The speed is taken from sensors at the wheels, so it will stay correct for this car.

 

+1 Loss of cruise-control seems to be the main negative associated with this.

And I thought I remember reading a post from a member who went with the 3.9 in his AT... ...and I thought he had swapped to the 3.7 prior to that. Might be worth some searching to see what the prefference was.

 

Actually I didn't lose my cruise control - still works fine. I think this may be a problem only for 5AT drivers.

 

YES! That's a nice suprise.

 

Interesting; I did not know that for the G35.

 

That's for every vehicle I have ever heard of...

.

 

Uh, no.

e.g., mustang

 

Aaron (arazonag35coupe), I am glad you are still enjoying your gear change, let me know if there is anything else I can help you with. I have a Nismo clutch (and flywheel) in stock, I can give you a great deal on it and the install. Lemme know..........

 

I've heard of it.

Feel it too, everytime I get in the car.
