Nice driving, manual is more fun, not hating or anything though

@Graham2B This was manual. I stayed in 1st gear since the course was a relatively tight course. The 5spd GB and increased rev limit of 8600 means 1st tops out around 40mph. You'll see that I hit the limited during the slalom but shifting to 2nd would've made more lost time than benefit me.

man that looks like fun

btw if it was an smt then i would have paddle shifters... this is a five speed . you can tell by it hitting the rev limiter at 23 sec

btw if it was an auto smt then i would have padel shifters... this is a five speed . you can tell by it hitting the rev limiter at 23 sec

@MidEngine4Life My bad, just thought i saw a post where u said it was manual and i didnt know there was a 5 spd manual sowy

Does this really affect the perfect balance ratio this car was made to be? Also, did you have to fabricate/relocate motor mounts for the 2GRFE to be swapped in? I seen the engine bay on a guy who had this done and it looks really tight. Would you happen to know also if a turbo application is about to be applied to this with the limited space?
