I have a suggestion! How about you learn how to drive a 5 speed and do a manual transmission swap!

I have A/T and I don't think it makes that much difference.

Uh.... No....

Perfect example of the next generation....

Or... the better way to go would be, i'm going to fix it so it'll drive first and then i'll think about modifications... because if i can't get to work it doesn't matter if its lowered or not... :werd:

ok...about the tranny swap...i found somethin somewhere and it says that when you have auto tranny it keeps the turbo spooled up during shifts and if im not mistaken thats what your goin for with a turbo...spool=speed=you got your ass beat by a automatic 87 hatch...

and thanks but the car runs...it just needs a tune up and thats it, so i dont know where you get off sayin that...it can get me to work but i need to find a damn job first...

Little FYI for ya Import+Auto=BOOM!!!!


Those turbo cars that use autos are probbally V8's that hold power....or they are drag trannys..........5-speed.....you'll be glad you did.



ps you should have sold me your fenders.....:(

im not talkin about V8's man...im talkin about little imports that you and I have...

take it from the 3g pioneers, they can't even get the manual tranny to work well with boost (10psi and up) let alone an auto.

also wtf would you need exhaust for if youre gonna go turbo, save the money. exhuast on a relatively stock import = rice. trust me, i've been there.

peace.

im not talkin about a whole exhaust and im not talkin about rice shit bro...im talkin about a stock soundin exhaust...nothin fancy or some shit like that...and i wasnt goin to get headers or anything like that...Just because im 15 doesnt mean i dont know what im talkin about...ive been around fuckin cars my whole life...my dads a mechanic for cryin out loud...

If you just throw a muffler on their it wil go BUZZZZZ I recomend full exhaust. And if your dads a mechanic he'll know how bad import automatics are then, and tell you otherwise.

it's a good project. The auto tranny makes cars no fun IMO.

The only reason my stepdad's taurus is fun is because it's got a 200 hp engine and it moves and handle's decently well.

5 spd = TEH WIN

you should be unique and figure out a 6spd... that'd be sick.

but turbo + auto = fried tranny---- at least in this case.

Just enjoy the hatchy...

Well, it will be a good car if you treat it well. The auto tranny won't hold up to a turbo, PERIOD.
Don't even consider it. The only way to keep a transmision is for it to be a manual one.
And a little word of advice...............watch you language, and show a little respect to other members. A good way to get disrespected here is to show longstanding members NO respect. Also a good way to get yourself banned real quick.
Anyway,:welcome: , and do alot of reading.

sorry about the language and it wont happen again...thanks for the welcome, B4 i even cursed on this page or in this forum period it just seems like ppl here only have negative comments and im just not used to it...i think if you ppl would lighten up on the harsh statements it wouldnt be so bad...

Guys have a way of flaming the noob's around here. And if you get smart with em, it gets bad real quick.
So, good luck man, Hatchies are cool. Just keep it simple for a while, get your job, and then plan your build.
