i have a base but am thinkin of going to sh since my base is an auto but i dun really see too many people with sh models should i jus stick with my auto and convert it later of go for the sh any disadanteges in the sh?

 

Only disadvantage to the SH is you can't turbo it. The ATTS can't handle more then 250 hp

 

anyway to disable the atts and turbo it?

 

I would trade your Auto in for an SH since it's already a 5spd

 

yeah but i want it to be turbo or super charged later and if atts cant handle it iono

 

Screw the ATTS and let it get disabled or get a tranny with an LSD and you will be better off. Either way if you turbo I believe your car will still work fine....just no traction control.

 

^ ATTS isn't traction control.

If you want turbo, get a 5spd base. That way you've got your 5spd and you can turbo it easier, without the added weight of a dead ATTS system.

Get an SH if you want handling from the factory. I'm really happy with mine; handles great on Tein SS coilovers.

SH & ATTS
base + LSD

 

or you could search... this has been argued plenty. However, if you are going turbo, yes do a base, but the SH does excel on a roadcourse. as said ATTS is not traction control, it simply controls the speed of the driver's side wheel to turn faster or slower around a turn and make it handle more like a rwd car.

 

i decided not to go with the sh i will stay with my base and jus go lsd thank you all for the input though

 

I have a 98 SH and I love it! The handling is just unbelievable, no understeer at all, throttling in and out of corners. I say go for it.

 

you say it can't handle 250 HP and up. is that 250 from the crank, or 250 that you would see at the wheels?

 

sh no good for turbo

 

around the 240-250whp. If you want to go really fast in a straight line don't get the SH.

 

I'm doing the nitrous thing with my SH. Yay for nitrous!
