i havent decided which to choose , the car will be daily driven .
and a 5th LS will be consider (do to highway driven )

 

LS 5th is for pussies.

D

 

the ATS will make your car FEEL slightly faster, and personally I think the LS 5th is a good idea if you do a lot of highway driving to help keep the revs(read: gas consumption) down a bit. If you are going to do it, might as well go with the ATS if you ask me.

 

 

ATS all the way. It's well worth the extra money.

LS 5th? Doesn't that come with a free sample of Vagisil products?

 

put in 4.9 in my car, but put in a 4.7 in another car last week

yshi - who'd like the ATS 3-4-5

 

the RPM difference isn't even a valid arguement between the two IMO.

You want it to be low on the revs? 4.26 LS FD with LS 5th gear. That'll be low.

For thoe that really care about the 500 RPM difference between JDM FD and ATS.. shouldn't be looking at a FD IMO. The 5th gear pull is the best thing about the ATS IMO.

 

since i like going to the track , i know it makes a different 1/4 mile e.t's
Yoshi how do you like your 4.9ATS ??

 

ATS 4.929 FD

On wet pavement you can pretty much forget about first gear traction even during semi hard acceleration but other then that the way the car accelerate out of a corner is much snappier. Very happy with this modification. RPM difference on highway is negligeable IMO (especially since my redline is at 9500 rpm so no lost of top speed vs stock)

Are there any disadvantages associated with the ATS, besides higher price?

 

ATS


no caps eats ***

 

It makes it that much harder to drive responsably

 

JDM FD. 4.9 is too short on road courses w/ the stock rev limiter.

Warren

 

ALLLL road courses?

I like my ATS 4.929, and Warren drives too fast anyway

Chart from R&D Motor Sports



Cal : Who would like complete gear from ATS for his ITR!

 

Warren: He said daily driver though. So while the ATS might be too much for the stock rev limiter on some road courses, it doesn't really apply to what he wanted. Personally, for daily driver my suggestion is still the 4.9. 5th gear pull owns.

 

red line will be at 9800rpms , depending how much top end power the 2.0L set up makes with the Spec D cams . maybe even 10krpms
