Tee from China Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 It seems everyone wants a manual TT but then I read that the Getrag box is not that smooth albeit strong so has anyone gone and ripped out the clunky 6 speed and dropped a nice smooth A340e box instead? seems all the racers (in the US of A) prefer an auto although not a standard box.

merckx Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 I'm not sure what you mean by "not smooth" ? It's an excellent gearbox to use, you only get a little clonking when moving very slowly when you're using the clutch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kslb Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Get a v161 slightly better in the lower gears. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Raven Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 The getrag box has been called "notchy and heavy" However anyone removing one to fit an auto box needs shooting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mplavery Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 i LOVE my 6 speed box, i hate autos, makes its more fun to drive IMO. It is a tiny bit notchy but in no way making me want to change to a auto box...IMO If people are saying its to notchy there jsut being too fussy. MR2's now thats a notchy gear box lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Id consider it if i lost a leg or an arm:) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted July 25, 2009 Share Posted July 25, 2009 Maybe if Iwas still using my supe everyday, id consider the auto, but i wouldn't retro fit my 6sp to an auto. I'd have bought an auto to start with and saved some money Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
