AUTO E15ET ???

Post by Sp33dY »

Ive done some quick searching, but cant find the info im after.

FRom what ive read in technical sections ... the ET/EXA turbo was only ever sold as a MANUAL? Has ANYONE ever mated it to an Auto from a pulsar, or something else with relative ease?

Is it Doable?

i dont accully know...but i was thinking along the same lines...imagine a tricked out auto in an et!!!! should cut a few points of a second off that 1/4 time!! but of course i'm still a firm believer that real drivers drive manual's... :wink: ..... good luck,

"DON’T WASTE TIME WITH AUTOS! Mine hade bigger Clutches, Bigger Bands, full manual body shift Kit, Stall Converter, B&M Shifter, and it lost all drive within a few days! They have shit ratios and CANNOT withstand the power. May be alright with a standard pulsar or one with limited modifications."

The Auto box is a COMPLETE waste of time. They are weaker than the manual boxes and have worse gearing.

The E15ET Never came with an auto option, however some JDM N/A carby Pulsars, Exas, and all Escargo's came with an auto box mated to an E15s engine.

There is a dude in Wellington with an E15ET Escargo. He used the auto box on it and as far as i know it didnt last more than a day or 2.

EDIT: Ah ya beat me 2 it Shane!

The proposed car that the engine will be going into is an auto ... and finding a pedal set and the other necessary bits to convert to manual would prove to be very hard, as the car was never sold locally and currently has a 1.0L motor in it that wont pass compliance in australia.

Im thinking that a carby n12 slushbox into it to get it complianced and on the road might be the only way to go, then maybe look at a ca18 auto or something and worry about efi/fuel transplant then.

I knew there was a reason there's no auto E15ET's around *sigh*.

Thanks ;) U've given me the info i think i needed to know.

The giveaway is the fact that it was blown.. pretty sure they never released with an auto, and yours was retrofitted but couldnt handle the torque anyway.

I'm qurious about this , i wanna run mine with an e15 tranny but was wonder if the promblems with running auto tranny is caused by increased boost? in other words if i run stock should there be a problem?

p.s. btw I'm new here and i dont drive a pulsar but a b11 sunny and im putting in an e15t motor this week ....

i dont think the question should be "If you can do it" but more along the lines of "Why you would do it"
