i personally think if a car doesnt have 3 pedals its not worth driving [hard]. so def go a manual if you're in that position. my story is i was in 2 1990 mazda astinas with 92kw fwd for a couple of years (but both were manual), now im in a 1989 manual s13 with a ca18det and ive had no problems adjusting to the whole boost/kick out in the wet thing, just gotta take it easy in the first few months i'd say then you'll get a feel of when to put the power down and when not to..

OH and invest in good tyres! the tyres that were on it were rather worn, when i say that if u ran ur fingers across the rears u could nearly feel some tread... so was heading up 90kmh high way thing (slight up hill) in a heavy downpour, was giving it the smallest amount of throttle possible and going below the speed limit and i felt the tail just start to move to the side.. and i was actively trying to give it next to nothing throttle! got new tyres now, but ive learnt just from that little 'aquaplane/slide thing' to stick with good tread! :D

    • thanks for the advice on the box... i was thinking the 6 speed was better for cruising on the highway but on closer inspection and comparison the Rb 5 speed box was not too different...  So the choice is going to be the RB25 box... if I can save up and find one at the right price  
    • Thanks Matt, yes that's what i am aiming for. Just going to apply the right voltage and grounds to the dash connector. Hence my search for these pins... any chance you know if these pins are in the same spot as the ones on the S15 Dash connector? as mentioned above on page 8?
    • Yes, unfortunately that's the one. Signal was noisy to begin with; after driving once and looking back at the logs I saw pressure constantly swinging between 0-200psi, or staying at 0 randomly for a few seconds. There's a lot of good sensors that share the same look and feel, so don't presume they're all bad. I bought mine for 20$ off Amazon and I should have read the reviews prior, as it's clear they're junk.  I purchased a lowdollerr motorsports sensor.
