Just to say my car is still running fine and still pushing 9k.

there is definitely still a slight power difference between the MT and AT, and sure u may be getting clean shifts, but whos to say somebody cant shift that well on a MT? and it still doesnt account for the two extra gears in a MT

plus its entirely too much fun to drive a manual, especially on this type of car

[BlAck0uTB4]

Two extra gears? Mine is a 6spd AT hahaha I dont know of the 8spd MT? No no im not saying it is worse or better I was just showing how you can work with the AT.

lol is that shifter nob from a mazda 6?

[BlAck0uTB4]

Nope came with the car

wtf? You increased the limiter so it could go into redline? Isn't that very detrimental to the car?

[BlAck0uTB4]

Yea the car can handle it, point is now there is not much power difference with the MT and always getting clean shifts.

@BlAck0uTB4 still running fine?

[xstr33tr4cerx]

@BlAck0uTB4 you can choose how fast you can shifft you cant double clutch you downshift when you want to manual will always be completely different from auto man and you cant even drive semi auto i can only imagine stick

@adp29501 sell the 04 auto go with an 06 auto. The money spent in mods will basically give you what the 6 spd auto rx8 gives you. OR better, sell for an 04 6spd manual. way faster. much more fun. I own an 04 6spd, wouldn't trade it for any car under 100k.

@gtakilla22 2006 and up have 6-speed auto.

[gtakilla22]

@BlAck0uTB4 I though AT RX8's only came in 4 speed?

[EmperorBenzRx8]

@adp29501 lol's, nitrous, supercharger, decrease drivetrain power loss(i.e. pulley), fuel upgrades... hahaha most cars can be fast with money spent on them even AT's ;D

[drummaboi1]

gotta say i hate that power kill at 9k and the fact that it sounds as bad as if you redlined a clutch that would make me nervous. under no circumstance would i give up my MT rx8
