6-speed mannual gearbox info
 
What kind of gearbox the BRZ/86 would be using for the 6-speed mannual transmission?

I was trying to find it on the spec sheet that were posted earlier but the images wouldn't load for me.

Aisin AZ6 I think...tiny bit longer 6th gear than the Miata/S2000/whatever for fuel economy. Oh and welcome.

What I'm trying to under is, if it uses a Aisin AZ6 transmission. Does that mean it will feel like an s2000 or a miata's gear box? Also how much power can it handle...

serialk11r 02-01-2012 03:27 AM

I'd imagine that the maximum torque it can take is probably similar to an S2k, assuming "same gearbox" means what I think it means.

It won't feel like an s2000. No other az6 feels THAT good sadly. Maybe like an rx8, etc.

I'll take it! The RX8 transmission is fairly linear, but loses a little snick-snickery to the S2000 ('ze best in my opinion)

I've owned a S2000 and it was the best shifting car I have ever owned/driven. But have always heard Miatas had a good shifter too. I guess I know why now.

Why do you think the BRZ/FR-S won't feel as good or better than the S2000? Different gearing? Engine type? Just curious.

As long as it is better than the 350Z gearbox!
