Automatic 4A-GZE, And the bashing begins... Options

[JoKeRkId613]

I will be swapping an AE101 4A-GZE into my ST during the summer. Like the topic says... Was there ever a 4A-GZE with an automatic transmission??? Why? You may be asking. Because I love automatic because it's less of a hassle for me than manual here in Miami. Yes, I have driven manual before. I lived in Colombia for a while back and there's mountains over there. All they drive are stick shift Japanese cars. Mostly Toyotas and Mazdas. But anyway, I do think manual is more entertaining, you have more control of the engine and all that. When I drive my Celica now, I treat it as if it were stick shift when I want/need to. So besides the bashing, and s h i t talking about automatic being for p u s s i e s, etc. Was a 4A-GZE released with an automatic transmission at any point in time? And if so, what's the best place to find one? I doubt the 7A tranny bolts up to the GZE and if it does, it probably wont last long. Thanks.

If there never was an auto you are going to have a harder time putting an auto tranny on there. The reason for this is the ECU. The 4agze ECU is built for manual, ie it can't control the shifting and stuff of an auto tranny. You would be better off doing all that stuff on your own, putting the pedal and stuff in, $800 dollars to drill 3 holes in the firewall, put 2 petals in and a master cylinder and a few hoses is rediculous. If you buy all the parts, buy me a plain ticket and put me up for 3 days or so, I'll do it for $100 and you will still be paying about half of what they are charging you.
