Its pretty clear that 1300 means 1300 for manualised kit fitted. I had my Jatco refreshened for 250 from Footscray auto and my trimatic refreshened with diff input shaft put in and for 200 from same place got quoted a 1000 inc above prices for full manualised kit and larger oil passages along with some other mods. If anyone needs an auto reco few places have been in business that long with trust from so many customers. They arent like panel beating shops prices that most other businesses seem to follow.
Im going for jatco auto for my supercharged A - cause the first gear of all the boxes mentioned besides the 71a are useless for the road and with the right stall a light body (640kg) Im going to have me some fun for drift and skids as per title. Yes fun! not trying to beat anyone with timeslip or ego trips just a setup that will handle the torque without me been frustrated that I need to take off on second. If I went back to my stroker one tonner Id still choose an auto with a stall but the 4 speed worked well but driving day in day out from place to place the auto allowed me to relax, take off nicely with one hand on my girls crutch.
The vid I posted was also for fun viewing and cause Im a big Baja and sandrail fan and sorry to throw off some peeps it was not the intention.
If you can get a cheap 60 series, t50 and are happy to take off on second for the street then by all means go for it but for budget over function an auto is what Im going for with a supercharged torquey A for kicks.
