I'm sure my rx8 had an electric pas setup. There appears to be loads getting broken due to the engine issues.

Actually I thought I read somewhere about the vss loop when swapping in the ATR gearbox?

Sure its only 4ths that have that.

Not going to start a 4th v 5th debate but for a car that alot of parts can be swapped from one to another theres some big differences.
