If the transmission is what it says it is, hopefully it wont break like other auto gearsets out there.

The ISF, EVO MR, GTR, a bunch of EURO crap have this so for Subaru to follow step is basically a trend.

Ohhh, ok Paddles would be fun...

laoba 02-24-2009 02:37 PM

Its hard to say what it is unless the complete specs are up

All that I read from the blog and various sites is...
[QUOTE]*SPORTSHIFT is a registered trademark of Prodrive Ltd[/QUOTE]

The regular auto trans for a Subaru is a 5EAT while this is an E5AT. Sport Shift is a trademark of Prodrive so that means something is up with the transmission.

Never heard of a auto trans doing throttle blips. Can't confirm if its a DCT or a DSG. All that I know is systems like this are a huge fad in Japan.

paddle shift WTF

auto blip = auto heel toe?

sigma pi 02-24-2009 03:19 PM
