Certain shifters have the O/D button installed on them. If it doesnt have the O'D button dont get it. My $.02
Yeah, you just reroute the button but-

for aftermarket shifters- how do you do the button press to shift? latinomasfino, what aftermarket shifter did youget>
They have the shifting button but not the O/D button.
looks good.

Yeah it does. Question, how did you get such a HUGE image on cardomain?
and one more- how do you tell what gear you're in!?
i wouldnt do that.. its not good for the tranny...
its fine, as long as u don't pass the limits of the tranny.

He has the wrong speeds listed anyway

in an auto, shift the same as a manual- at 5500. This puts you at 30-35 mph in 1 (40 is the highest speed you should downshift to), 2nd at 65 or so (although 2nd gear can be engaged at 80 or so).

(and yes, the manual gears and speeds differ a lot)
Its what I got when I pushed it in D without the subs or anything else in the car. Furthermore, I'm a vert, so on a lighter GT hatchback, you could probably hit 40
it's easy to re-wire the OD to anywhere you want it. The Auto in celicas works rather well. there's no need to upshift. It'll do it properly on it's own. Downshifting is a new ball game though. >wink.gif>
