Blonk Iconoclast Donating Members 4,330 Member For: 20y 3m 8d Gender: Male Location: CH Posted 09/06/10 04:16 PM Share Posted 09/06/10 04:16 PM OK.. Heres a genuine post.. Years ago when the arguments where about autos and manuals. I have a BA F6 man. The auto's where quicker from the traps and claimed they where the better box... I couldnt argue because with the evolution of the tuning and aftermarket I managed to blow (completly) 2 six speed manual gear boxes and felt they were not at all designed to get off the line.. That was when quarter mile times ruled around here and I dreamed about the day I too could put some massive HP behind an auto and get the feeling the others were getting...... I have had the F6 manual since last few weeks were as previously described I was the fortunate hirer to get an FG XR6T with the "wonderful auto gearbox"My take.. I hate the fkn thing.. It is a gearbox for girls... Prissy girls at that..... I give away quarter mile speeds and off the light times just not to have to put up with that peice of unimaginagle peice of crap crap... (the gearbox so nice they named it twice)Why do I need microsoft or bosche or henry ford to tell me when to change gears. WHen to hesitate, when to spool, They are 20 years off becoming a true street manual gearbox.. I am disappointed at myself for believeing the shiat I read on here about how good the auto's were.... In two words I come sum up my experience with the so beloved 6 speed autotwo words - "AUTO'S ARE FOR GIRLS'Prissy girls at that!!!!!!!!!!!!Suck it up ya auto katoi's.. Cog swapping doesnt mean computers and hydraulic fluid..!!!!!!!Reckon? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sexual harrassment panda I see a red door and I want to paint it black Donating Members 5,919 Member For: 15y 2m 10d Gender: Male Location: Far north queensland Posted 10/06/10 07:31 AM Share Posted 10/06/10 07:31 AM I love manuals and have been driving them for 16 years now but I chose the auto zf because I knew I'd be up for a new clutch pretty soon if I got the manual (couldn't afford the f6). I love it now that I'm used to it, hop in stick it in manual mode and go. Would rather have a clutch but I have to change clutches too often at work and it's a *beep* of a job.
