Kamotors E30-Turbo to ITB M20

[kamotors]

your just making your self look stupid man, you are completly disregarding the transmission gearing. the 4hp22 auto trans he is using is a much much longer/taller geared transmission than the manual gearbox that everyone uses which is why it came with a higher geared rear end from the factory. The lower geared rear end makes up for the taller gearing in the auto trans, just because a 4.27 differential is short in one car doesnt mean it will be short in another car with a completly different transmission.

Thank you for understanding! Also TCD is making 363rwhp / 427rwtq on this tranny w/ a 3k stall converter.

I'm excited to see this though!

Why are you guys hating on his auto? It'll probably lay the smack down on any similar powered 5speed.

Not if said 5 speed is being properly driven.

Why are most drag cars automatics? What are most high end cars using semi-automatics? It can shift faster and more reliably then anyone that is manually shifting.

By the way here is an old video to show how quick it shifts with my shift kit. I know 0-60 in the high 6's isn't even quick by todays standards so dont bring it up but just watch it to see how quick it shifts.

That is nice and quick, looks like a nice clean sharp shift also, unlike a lot of cars.

Those transmissions are a little more technologically advanced than what is in an E30.

Very cool build! This will be an awesome daily cruiser!

[Vtec?lol]

Funny thing is, 4hp22 automatics still shift faster than any e30 with a 5sp.

But wheres the fun in that? Automatics mean no more clutch kicking in front of chicks bro! Isnt that why we all drive manuals?

yeah but a stock e30 with an auto is still slower, my car is swapped

[kamotors]

got my turbo to intercooler charge pipe cut and welded up, need to paint it wrinkle black. will post pics tomorrow.

[Vtec?lol]

Hurry with the pics BRO!!!!

I shift 1 time to get to 60mph, how is that shifting too much? I can go 0-95mph in 2 shifts... what your saying does not apply to MY e30.

I'm comparing apples and oranges now but you would hate my wrx (which is also turbocharged) then because it also only hits 40mph in first and 60 second and 90mph in 3rd just like my E30.

I'm confused now.

I applaud you for doing this to your car though. So excite.
